Day 6 1/27 Just me-Bonnie (and Burt)

[BonnieA]

Today we went to IOA/Universal. I've been to IOA before but Burt had never been. He doesn't do many thrill rides like simulators & roller coasters but I really wanted him to try spiderman since it is such a cool ride. I thought he needed to experience it even if he got sick. Well, he didn't get sick, he did close his eyes in one part where it spun around. We went next door after that to do Dr Doom. I figured that would be safe since he never had a problem with TOT. Most of the rest of the time we just walked around checking out the themes. We did go on Jurassic Park and Cat in the Hat. Actually it was Cat in the Hat that made him a little queasy because of the spinning. We left around noon for lunch in City Walk. Just picked up a quick sandwich. Then it was off to Universal. Started off with the Horror make up show because it was 25 minutes until the next T2 show. Made it back to T23D right after the show. Caught the next show of Animal Planet Live then got an express pass for MIB. We got passes at 2:45 and the return window was 2:45-3:45. I'm still not sure how that pass system works but who cares, we were able to walk right past the line of people to board. I wasn't sure if Burt would do well because there is some spinning during this ride but he did fine. The next stop was Twister, just wish Twister had seats. Then on the Alfred Hitchcock show. Went back to catch Earthquake and then left the park. Decided to make an early night of it so back to the hotel after stopping for a meal at Sweet Tomatoes.
