Islands of Adventure

While I was in Arlington, Jennifer was meeting readers and, occasionally, other authors. Saturday afternoon she and Susan continued signing and selling while I hung out at the hotel. They finished up in the evening and we packed up her booth and went to dinner. Sunday we made the long drive home.

This evening Susan and I went to Universal’s Islands of Adventure with Jenn and a friend. We figured we’d hang out for a few hours and use our after 4 pm express pass to go a few rides, but when we got the found out the parks were closing at six for Grad Bash. 

We quickly went on VelociCoaster and Hagrid’s Motorbikes and headed out. In Lost Continent, the Sinbad stunt show, which has been closed since before the pandemic, and the Poseidon walk through, which closed three years ago, were both behind construction walls. 

In CityWalk, the Epic Universe preview store has been converted to a Universal Legacy store.
