A day free today to visit Universal Studio, which is around 45 miles away, through the traffic of LA.  Had a very chatty bus driver and Rich had to sit in the front with him and endure lots of questions 'Why you on holiday with your parents, haven't you got any mates?' Finally managed to ring dad on his birthday so I was relieved that I finally got through.
Universal Studios looked great fun and we decided to go into the Haunted House, I was terrified, lots of dark corridors and mirrors with mummies, ghosts and other horrors ready to jump out and chase you at every turn I did lots of screaming and was glad to get out (but I enjoyed it afterwards) We watched the Terminator show, which was spectacular, and went on the Simpsons ride with all the kids. It was brilliant and should be wasted on the kids. We then had the studio tour which took us around the various sets, from wild west towns, to the Physco Motel, to the Jaws set, Wisteria Avenue from Desperate Housewives and the full size set from War of the Worlds.We finally watched a water show from the film Waterworld, which was a real spectacle. We stayed in the studios until it got dark and until the park closed at 6.00p.m then we had pancakes at Universal City Walk next to the studio
