Friday 27th April

Universal Studios

Today was spent at Universal Studios.

We did the usual rides, Terminator 3d, ET, MIB, Jaws, Earthquake, Twister, Beetlejuice (had to laugh when they kept referring to him as B.J.) and Shrek 4d.

Also, by the magic of 'single rider' I managed 3 runs of 'The Mummy' (in 25 minutes) before we headed out of the park.

We ate at the Hard Rock Cafe next door then popped into the cinema on City Walk.

They are doing almost 100% coverage of the new Spiderman 3 film on May 3rd. I think 15 of the 16 screens will be showing S3 at midnight, or very soon after.

Anyway, being an old fuddy duddy who most likely will be asleep by midnight ;) I've booked us to go see it on the 4th @ 19:15.

The cashier has also told me that the version of the film we're booked in to see is what she referred to as the 'UP' version. To quote her : 'The picture quality is so much better, it's like 3D only it isn't'.

I'm guessing it's a digital High Def. version of the film.

Should be interesting, whatever it is as I paid $2 over the normal ticket price!
