Over spring break, we all went on a trip to California’s parks: Six Flags/Magic Mountain, Universal Studios, Sea World, Hollywood, and then a variety of beaches.
Six Flags is pretty much the home to the biggest roller coasters around. Apparently the ride everyone wanted to go on was something like X2. Personally, I prefer to keep my feet solidly on the ground. I’m not much of a big roller coaster person. And that was pretty much the only thing in the park. Their water section was closed down because it was still too cold in the year, even though it looked the most fun.
Next I think we went to Hollywood and looked at all the stars in the sidewalk with names on them. I thought it was funny they gave a whole star to the Munchkins. If the Munchkins got a star, then Matt Damon sure should have.
Next we went to Universal Studios for two days. I thought the two days were worth it. It was one of my favorites besides Sea World. There were rides and shows for all sorts of movies. Jurassic Park, Back Draft, The Mummy, Water World, The Terminator 2, etc. They had a set tour and we went through London and Whoville, which were made out of Styrofoam. Right behind Whoville is the Bates Motel from Psycho. Remember that next time you watch How The Grinch Stole Christmas. We also saw Jaws’ port and several vehicles from various movies.
We spent two days at Sea World too. That was my favorite. All the kids voted our favorite thing to do was go swimming with dolphins. They feel really weird, but it was way fun. We watched the Shamu Orca show but the dolphin show was closed to remodel the set. My new favorite animals are sea lions.
At the La Jolla beach we went Kayaking. Our tour guide was really funny. His favorite word was intense and he was afraid of scuba diving and pink toasters. Near the end our arms got tired, and we couldn’t go inside the caves because of how strong the waves were. We also went to Huntington beach. Kyra and I waded deep into the ocean looking for shells. There were hundreds of shells. Most of the bigger ones were broken, but I liked the little ones better. They had more color and came in several different kinds, not just the typical scoop shape. We have lots of pictures from this trip, we'll put together a slide show so you can see more.
