Exploring Jurassic Park at Islands of Adventure in Orlando, Florida USA
Filed Under (Florida, Orlando, Shopping, Travelling, USA, World Souvenirs) by Janet on 14-02-2009
“Hey Dear Dear let’s go ride that Coaster up there inside Jurassic Park!!” as I point to the flying Roller Coaster up in the sky infront of us……….
View of Flying Roller Coaster - Pteranodon Flyers from Toon Lagoon :
“Wow it looks so fun so fun!!” as Dear agrees with me as we walk hurridly towards Jurassic Park - recreated based on the Blockbuster Hit of famous Film Director - Steven Spielberg!!
Well, Pteranodon Flyers allow one to soar through the air & get a Pteranodon’s eye view of Camp Jurassic here at Islands of Adventure in Orlando, Florida USA.
Here’s an Islands of Adventure - Jurassic Park Visitor Guide :
Dear & I pause to take some pics with a Jurassic Park Jeep parked beside a huge Dinosaur appearing from the thick forest :
Hey WATCH OUT Dear!! BEWARE the Dinosaur!!
We’re now entering Camp Jurassic looking for the Pteranodon Flyers………
Very disappointedly & sadly, we soon find out that there’s a long queue (as usual again!!) for the Pteranodon Flyers & we’d need to wait an hour!! NO WAY as time is precious here as Dear & I are hopping between 2 Parks (Univerversal Studios Florida & Islands of Adventure) today!!
So again, Dear & I have to forgo the Attraction as Dear convinces me that Pteranodon Flyers is nothing very interesting & exciting except ”gliding” (more than flying!!) in the sky & that it’s more for kids!! But Dear seems to forget that his Dear Dear (Me!!) is very childlike too & likes childish stuffs haha!!
Anyway, Dear tries to make me happier by picking a large Autumn colored Leaf (though it’s WINETR now actually!!) from the grounds of Camp Jurassic for me……….
Hehee isn’t my Dear so SWEET huh cos he knows I always love Autumn leaves & would pick some to bring home whenever I travel overseas………..still remember Dear used to bring home some for me from his Business Trips to Australia during Autumn too……………
Well, here it is - that large gorgeous Autumn colored Leaf from Dear :
And well, I too pick another even bigger one from the grounds to pair up the above one hahah :
Dear & I are now visiting Jurassic Outfitters (Souvenirs Store) here at Jurassic Park at Islands of Adventure in Orlando, Florida USA :
Heheh look how happy Dear is holding up this GIANT Dinosaur Plush Toy :
Hahah did I tell you that Dear loves Dinosaurs very much!??!
Well, he’s fascinated with Dinosaurs since he was a kid & he used to have many Dinosaur Toys & Games, as well as CDs & DVDs of the extinct Reptiles!! And YEA of course Dear adores Jurassic Park Movies too!! They’re my favourites too heheh!!!
“Err!!! Errr!!!” I scream as Dear’s GAINT Dinosaur hugs me from behind!! Very Naughty Naughty Dear!!!
Inside Jurassic Outfitters now as I begin snaping pics as I shop :
SURPRISE!! I just found a 2-D Incredible Hulk Coaster Souvenir Magnet here at Jurassic Outfitters - but SILLY Dear thinks it’s not nice, plus it’s a little too huge for my magnetic Board space at home (haha runing out of space for my World Souvenir Magnets Collection!!) that I’ve to let it go too………
Here I am (wearing a Dinosaur Head-shaped Hat) being frightened by the many Baby Dinosaurs Plush Toys looking like they’re going to ATTACK & EAT me UP!!!
Well, I soon leave Jurassic Outfitters empty-handed with no Souvenir Magnets whatsever……….but Dear got himself a real cool & charming Islands of Adventure - Universal Studios Souvenir T-Shirt :
Heheh, it’s of good quality as it’s made in Mexico of US Fabric & again as usual we go for non China-made tees :
We’re now just arrived at Jurassic Park River Adventure - a Water-based Amusement Ride - too bad Dear & I refuse to get ourselves wet so we’ve to miss the Ride!!
Here’s a pic of Dear & I taken by a fellow American man (whom we believe to be a Time-Share salesman!!) who offers his help - & well, he’s to let us off upon hearing that we’d be leaving for home (Singapore!!) tomorrow hahah!!
A pretty interesting-looking Pizza Predattoria :
Now, Dear’s seen here with some 65 million year old Fossil Remains of a Triceratops from the period of Late Cretaceous :
We next come to Jurassic Park Discovery Center (with thatched Tiki-Hut style roofs) which is a replicated version of the “Visitor Center” from the “Jurassic Park” Film :
We also see ”Burger Dips” which is a Fast Food Restaurant, & a Souvenir Shop called “DinoStore” located at Jurassic Park Discovery Center :
“Hahah GOOD GOOD GOOD!!” as Dear & I enter Jurassic Park Discovery Center in need of its cool Air-con as weather’s getting reall HOT & sunny out here in Orlando at Sunshine State Florida!!
Right in the middle of Jurassic Park Discovery Center, Dear & I see 2 large suspended Dinosaur Skeletons which are actual Props from the Film “Jurassic Park” - as Dear literally screams “HEY Dear look at the Dinosaur Skeleons!! They’re so HUGE hahah!!” :
Dear soon hurries me to take pics of him with his Extinct buddies heheh :
We then walk downstairs via the large spiral staircase (just like the one seen in ”Jurassic Park” Film!!) into the Beasaur Exhibits which allow us to see & hear as the huge Dinosaurs did - making “noises” as the life-size replica Reptiles’ heads “move”……….really interesting!!
We next visit THE NURSERY where Dinosaur Eggs are being analysed by Laboratory Attentants :
In here one can scan fossilized Dinosaur skeletons, examine Dinosaur eggs & play mind boggling games!
Dear’s now operating a Pre-Emergent Nursery Scanner where he places a Dinsoaur Egg in an Analyzer in an attempt to discover what kind of Dinosaurs is inside :
Lucky us cos Dear & I arrive just in time to watch Velociraptor “hatch” in the Laboratory when a Lab Attentant appears to check on the following Eggs which are being rotated………..
Soon the Lab Attentant announces that one of the Eggs is starting to hatch………& we all become so excited & anxious as we watch on…………..And YEA!! the Dinosaur Egg really HATCHES right infront of our very eyes!! Really exciting & remarkable!! Too bad I couldn’t manage to snap any pic due to the over-crowding guests around the Lab………
Dear & I have a quick browse through DinoStore (the Souvenir Store)………& now we’ve come out of Jurassic Park Discovery Center in its opposite exit other than the one we first entered :
What beautiful Dinosaur carvings on the exterior walls outside Jurassic Park Discovery Center as we soon discover :
Then we see this large White ”Pearl in the Dinosar Claw” outside Jurassic Park Discovery Center - reall cool!!
And this exit of the Jurassic Park Discovery Center actually opens to a most lovely view of tall slim Florida Palm Trees, leading to a Lagoon Viewing Area :
“Heheh that’s the Incredible Hulk Coaster across the Water there!!” as Dear’s filled with excitement all over again upon seeing his Most Thrilling Coaster here at the Lagoon Viewing Area outside Jurassic Park Discovery Center :
As Dear & I stroll out of Jurassic Park towards our next “Island” of exploration here at islands of Adventure, we see another Jeep parked alongside lush greeneries :
Then we encounter yet another Dinosaur & Jurassic Park Jeep - this time a more colorful one as we bid goodbye to Jurassic Park……….
Well, Dear & I have had a wonderful time exploring Jurassic Park here at Islands of Adventure in Orlando, Florida USA!! And we sure enjoy ourselves lots lots!!!
