Photographs from Universal Studios Hollywood

By: Andrew Bermudez
     Sorry that I'm a little late on this. We've been very busy with another weekend vacation and have now gotten the chance to put this up. Coverage of our weekend trip to San Diego will be compiled this upcoming weekend and week.
     Besides Transformers: the Ride - 3-D, Universal Studios Hollywood also have several other attractions, mostly shows. Here are some pictures from this relatively small (but not too small) theme park.

Some street performers play some up-beat ragtime tunes on Baker Street.

The NBC Universal Experience features changing exhibits that showcase props, concept sketches, animation puppets, and more from NBC Universal's movies and television shows.

In order to enter King Kong 360 3-D, the Studio Tour tram must make a 180 turn! Get it?  *GROAN*.

The DeLorean from Back to the Future.

Artificial rain makes up for dry days in Southern California.

The Special Effects Stage, in its new location, is a really good show; maybe even better than the original version of this show.
     Though a little hard to get to, Universal Studios Hollywood is certainly worth a day trip. If you want to visit the park (and brave the notorious L.A. traffic to get there), be sure to visit their website to buy tickets, plan your visit, check operating hours, and more. However, you won't find a show schedule on the website; you'll pick that up along with your map at the front gate.
     Well, that's all for today. This weekend, I'll put up the photos and share my thoughts from San Diego, as well as spell check and update the 2009 vacation photo gallery. Until then, happy travels!
