So last night Jenny and I decide to go away to California for the weekend again. We left Saturday night after Jenny got off work and got a hotel in Glendale when we finally got there around 1:30AM.

We got up in the morning and went to the Universal Studios Theme Park. It was pretty fun. We got to watch a lot of shows, although my favorite was the actual tour of the studios in the back lot. That place is amazing. Just to see the sets and everything. It’s crazy seeing how what seem to look like houses aren’t REALLY houses.

It seems to me though that the shows are really dated. I mean come on. Back to the Future? Backdraft. Those are all like movies of the 80’s and 90’s. I mean one show was Terminator 2 in 3D. Hello! Terminator 3 is out already. Sounds to me like Universal Studios needs an overhaul to their theme park. Regardless…it was a lot of fun! One of my favorites was Shrek in 4D. Except I HATED it when the water sprayed all over me. How many times is Donkey going to sneeze already? Sheesh!

And then we strolled down Hollywood Boulevard and checked out the Hollywood Stars. Grauman’s Chinese Theater was also pretty cool. I found the Gandalf at the front amusing. It’s a shame we really didn’t know what to do down there. Maybe next time we’ll do some more research. In my case, I want to go and check out some of the musicals they have.

We chugged down a ton of Starbucks and headed home.

It’s nice to just get away sometimes.
