Once we were done with the Studio Tour it was time to try the attractions of the park. The good thing about Universal Studios is that it is not too big (like Disneyland) so you can easily do everything in one day, without stress.
Jurassic Park takes you on a boat cruise within the dinosaur world. Lot's of water involved there which is really nice on a hot day. Note that the final part will get you soaked. Not wet, really soaked, but real good fun.
Of course one must meet the starts and why not have a chat with them.
In front of each attraction there was a description of what the attraction is about and several icons indicating who should avoid it. Because it's the US I guess, the list of icons can be quite impressive and not always self-explanatory (you can read the legend on the map provided). In Disneyland Paris there are clearly not so many of them.
As a consequence I stayed away from the high speed roller-coaster (I believe between my back and my high blood pressure, 2 of these icons are for me).
Later in the day we watch one show:
Waterworld, inspired from the movie. It was surprisingly good with some quite impressive stunts and an aircraft landing in the pool.
Tip for Waterworld: don't sit at any of the first 5 rows at the bottom, you'll be splashed for sure.
After this great day at Universal Studios, I cannot help thinking we're having crazy vacation. Yesterday we were in the Grand Canyon all alone and today we are in the crowd of the Studios.
