We were so excited to learn early on during our assignment here that one of the islands nearest to ours is home to Universal Studios! So this weekend we took a quick 15 minute drive and spent the day enjoying all of the fun attractions that Universal Studios has to offer. Wow, has it ever changed in the 30 years since I've visited one. So much fun for the girls! Okay, Andy and I too. :) Hannah and I both rode our first "hanging roller coaster". I guess that's what you call them: the kind where you are strapped in on top, but your feet are just dangling! Oh it was so much fun! Other favorites included the Madagascar boat ride, Jurassic Park flying dinosaurs and of course the Shrek ride. In fact, tonight we started what is sure to be a several week-long Shrek-a-thon for our family movie night. Weren't there like 4 of them?

So fun!
I love this movie...
