Alright, I am not really fond of amusement parks. You rarely read any story on this blog that’s about crazy rides or insane roller-coasters. That is because I am scared of those rides, even by just the thought of them.

When my Ukrainian friend asked me to go with him to the Universal Studios Resort in Orlando Florida, I hesitated. But with the assurance that I would just have to watch and roam around the theme park, I agreed to join the trip.

Here are some of the photos I took.

That’s Harry Potter’s experience right there at the background!

Every alley there are stores with souvenirs and gifts.

Care for some Jurassic Park experience?

And look at this Poseidon structure?

Clearly, kids will love the park! There are just too many things to do for them.

What about getting soaked in a river adventure? This plastic coats will be provided for use.

This ‘Fear Fall’ is the craziest ride, I think!

That’s my friend on the right end.

You probably will think how stupid I was not to even try to ride. Well, well, well…

After so much convincing from my friend, I finally conquered the fear and took a ride with this beast…

Damn, by the looks of it, t’was crazy! But the experience was even crazier! I admit, it was one of the bravest things I did.

And I am happy I did it.
