Universal Studios πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅

Uncategorized

Yesterday we went to Universal Studios Japan! My parents and my grandparents put in money to go to USJ for a birthday treat. I can’t wait to tell you all about it.

The ride I was most excited about was the Harry Potter ride , Forbidden Journey. Those of you that have read Harry Potter ⚑️will really like this post. We took the subway to Universal City Station and we got in line at the entrance. When it opened we scanned our tickets and then we ran to Forbidden Journey to get a good spot in line. When we got there it said it would 30 minutes to get to the front of the line but it actually only took about fifteen minutes.

Hogsmeade was really cool, it was so real! It had Zonko’s , Honeydukes, Ollivander’s, and the Three Broomsticks! Forbidden Journey was in the fake Hogwarts Castle . When we got to the front of the line we did a thing called child switch. Child switch is where two adults want to go and so does one kid but the other kid does not want to. First I went with mom. It was so fun but also scary. It was Virtual Reality and at some parts it totally felt like you were falling and it was crazy. There were fake dragons and dementors and huge spiders πŸ•·. The end was really fun because you had just been in a cave with dementors and then you got to fly across the lake back to Hogwarts (virtual reality). After I went with mom I got to go again with dad and I was so excited to do it again. The ride did not make dad feel so good.🀒 Below is Hagrid’s Hut.After Forbidden Journey, my mom and I went on a little roller coaster called Flight of the Hippogriff. It was just a little coaster and I do not think it was worth it for the 20 minute wait.

When we were done with that we walked around Hogsmeade and we found Zonko’s. For those of you who do not know what Zonko’s is , it is a trick and joke shop in Hogsmeade . Zonko’s has crazy stuff like extendable ears.

This is me holding a wand at Ollivander’s. Ollivander’s had Harry, Ron, Hermione, Dumbledore, Neville, Ginny, Luna, Malfoy, Voldemort, Bellatrix, Narcissa, Sirius, Cho Chang, Snape, Cedric Diggory, Viktor Krum, and Fleur Delacour’s wands. Please comment if you have no idea who those people are.

This is the monster book that Hagrid does a lesson with. It snaps your finger whenever you try to pick it up or touch it. To keep it from doing that you have to put a belt around it.

The Harry Potter world had Butterbeer stalls in it and we did not try it because a lot of other blogs said that it was not very good and overpriced πŸ’΅πŸ’°.

After Harry Potter Denise and mom went on a younger kid ride . It was a Snoopy ride and it was like the bee 🐝 ride at Centerville in Toronto, for you Vancouverites, Japanese, and Americans I will send a photo when I have better WiFi. While my mom and Denise did more rides like Elmo and a carousel, Dad and I went on Jaws. Then we went to Jurassic Park and you can see dad and I coming out of the log ride at the end in the video at the bottom. When we were done with Jurassic Park we went to Backdraft. It was not my favourite, I would not recommend it. After Backdraft the four of us went on a ride called Minion Mayhem. It was also Virtual Reality and it was really cool.

Here is us by the Hogwarts Express. Mom and I went to Forbidden Journey a third time at the end of the day since we loved it so much. After that we went to Jurassic Park again for our last ride, the video at the bottom shows it.

Our day at USJ was really fun, I will never forget it. Until next time, Bye!
