Today we went to Islands of Adventure at Universal Orlando, the second park Universal built in Orlando, after Universal Studios. Our last visit to both parks was in 2003.
We went mainly to see the relatively new Wizarding World of Harry Potter area. IOA consists of several “ports of call” set around a central lagoon. The Harry Potter area was pretty crowded, so we walked around the park trying to do other things until after dinner.
We ate lunch at Mythos, which was pretty good, then rode some of the other rides. Many
of the attractions are very well done, especially the Spider-Man ride,
but tend to throw you around or spin you more than Disney rides do. In the evening, we looked through the stores and tried the butterbeer at the Three Broomsticks.
We then rode the Dragon Challenge and, right before closing, the Forbidden Journey. The Dragon Challenge, which used to be called Dueling Dragons before it became part of the Harry Potter area, is a two sided racing coaster. Forbidden Journey is a dark ride which uses screens and props to hurl you through the world of Harry Potter.
