Come with me on a Journey to a Far away place inhabited by Mythological Gods and Constellations. Through the Portals we go to an Epic Universe.

I can always depend on and appreciate your thorough back stories and histories of places and characters throughout the park. It gives me an even better appreciation (and understanding) when I encounter those areas/characters. 😃
Thank you so much wdwrule for your kind comments.

I’am just in awe of all the storylines, designs and the tiniest details that went into the creation of Dark Universe.

The folks that are behind the creation of this land are incredibly talented folks.

They have brought the Universal Monsters to life in a tangible way I could have never imagined.
 
Monday, May 5th continued


I had received the text that my room was ready. I was ready to get in my room and get settled.

I stopped at the Frankenstein Manor Store to pick up some Jewelry I had my eye on and then it was time to head to the hotel.

It was short walk from Dark Universe to the resort guest entrance at Helios Grand.

I took photo of the fountain on my way back.

What a beautiful sculpture of Apollo couldn’t help not taking another photo of it.

I retrieved my luggage and off to my room I went.

There is a beautiful kinetic picture of the moon, stars and constellations as you approach the elevators.

I had a room on the 7th floor.

When I got off the elevator there was a nice arrangement of glass art pieces on the wall.

I walked into the room and was blown away as my eye was immediately drawn to the window and the view that awaited me.

I had a king bedroom. The room was nice open and the colors in the room were warm with the blues, pinks, cream and gold.

The design reminded me of art deco especially the lamps.

The TV is mounted on the wall which leaves plenty of service area to put your needed supplies.

You can control the lights, the curtain sheers and the heavy curtains from the fixture by the door or the pad mounted by the bed. This is a nice touch.

I took out the jewelry I bought from the Manor Store. The jewelry are in nice sturdy boxes. I will revisit the jewelry they had on offer.

Also the lovely young lady who waited on me was wonderful. She was dressed in Vampire attire and she took out all the jewelry for me to look at.

First off all the Jewelry is well made. It is costume jewelry, but the quality is very good.

The Frankenstein’s Monster bracelet with the bolts is a bit to heavy for me as was Vampire bracelet, but I have to say if I was going to buy one of the bracelets for myself it would probably be the Vampires bracelet.

I tried on Frankenstein ring and it was well designed, but too heavy for me. Of all the rings I really liked the bride of Frankenstein’s Monster ring.

So what did I buy.

The Frankenstein’s Monster Bride pieces. I bought the ring and earrings. I bought a set for myself and my niece who is a big fan of Frankenstein’s Monster.

I thought the design on the earrings was interesting with the lightening bolts and the white and black stones with the metal lightening bolt design dividing the stone like The Brides hair.

The Brides ring was not heavy and the black stone with lightening bolts on either side is awesome. There is a white heart with red arteries mounted next to the black stone. It is visually just as interesting a piece as are the earrings.

I only had a carry on suitcase. So there was not much room to bring to many purchases home, but the jewelry boxes fit fine.



More to come
