Universal Studios California Theme Park
If you love theme parks, a visit to Southern California should include a day at Universal Studios Theme Park. Don't miss my favorite show - Water World, an elaborate and wild water stunt and pyrotechnic show (see photo above), and of course, the new King Kong exhibit.
The park includes lots of fun for the whole family. In addition to the must see behind-the-scenes Hollywood tour, there are many rides and attractions including Revenge of the Mummy ride, Jurassic Park ride, King Kong 3D, WaterWorld show, Shrek 4-D, Animal Actors, and of course meet your favorite characters like SpongeBob SquarePants and Shrek.
The LA Wizarding World of Harry Potter is planned for Universal Studios CA, to open in 2016 at the earliest. The Los Angeles Harry Potter theme park will be modeled after the famous Harry Potter series, and the successful Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios in Orlando, FL.
