Was on Forbidden Journey and the ride malfunctioned, got stuck right in the beginning, lights went on, and then we rode through the entire thing lights on, really amazing to see. Then somehow at the end the RV could not get completely to the platform, so we had to be evacuated. Quite the experience. The whole ordeal was about 40 minutes.

We stopped for a long bit once, and the lights went on for a good while, showing all the bare stuff. Amazing they can turn that mishmash of things into such a great ride. I try to keep it out of my memory though, since it kind of ruins the ride experience
for me. It is amazing, though.

Lol, I am the opposite, I love looking behind the magic It is also amazing, when the ride stops, to see just how much detail there is everywhere. Also fun to see the parts that normally would not be in view, and there is a small movable crane standing there lol

Back in march before the shut down we got "stuck" in the first projector pod. The video and audio froze and we sat there for a minute. Then it started up again while that pod's video remained frozen but the motion and audio were going again.

Ride felt so tame without the video running/being sync'd with the motion.

Longest locker project ever continues. But might we see rockwork on this now?

I'm holding out for a lattice wall of plants, lots and lots of plants...

They need to cast the "Locker area themed cadabra" spell. So simple. Can't believe they didn't use it. What good is magic, if it sits dormant. :grin:

I mentioned these "connections" in the JP thread, but it's good to see a picture of them.

A rockwork facade semi-hidden behind a new wall of planted foliage would be my preferred outcome here.

Nope, it is in JP/Hogsmeade no magic allowed outside the Hogwarts grounds

Just move the JP arch back 25-50 feet....magically. ...They might do that one anyway. :grin:

Hot Butterbeer has returned to Universal Orlando for the 2020 Season

It's that time of year! Hot Butterbeer has returned to the Wizarding World. The popular version of the beverage returns during Florida's Fall/Winter Season (being Florida, we are using "Winter" very loosely here). Hot Butterbeer is a smooth, hot beverage reminiscent of shortbread and buttersco
