 Hey friends today, I am hanging out at Universal Studios islands of an adventure The park has been closing around six and seven o'clock So I wanted to come out and make a video to see what you can get done in just a little bit of time We have three hours left until the park closes at seven. So let's go do this I'm picking islands of adventure for this experiment because this is open the latest This is open till 7 p.m. While Universal side closes at 6 Of course, it's important to get something to eat so that we can give ourselves some energy And one place I want to go to is like a spot that I really really do enjoy and that's Confiscal Grill They have an annual pass holder lounge where you can order food and drinks and get an amazing view So we're gonna start there Right here. We are no reservation needed We just walked right up and here is a look at the menu. They've got trader wings chicken quesadilla They have a catch of it a day a pad thai a penny al vaca very good food here I'm excited to try something. I haven't had before Now I don't want to rush around I actually want to take my time and enjoy the park because that's like the most important thing I mean you can rush and get a lot done But actually relaxing and having fun at the same time. That's the true test Today might be my lucky day a ladybug landed on me. They say that's good luck. I hope it is I don't want it to go. It'll fly away when it's ready. Goodbye ladybug Sorry I'm like goodbye ladybug When you go inside Confiscos you can dine in or you can dine on the outside and This is just amazing because the outside is Like such an amazing view. I love it, but inside is nice and aced. So you have to pick and choose But if you think the view from here is good wait till I show you where we're going back. This is Unbelievable. I am so honored to be going out here Look at how amazing this is Huh, I have never been up here before This is so breathtaking Everything you get to watch everyone just going about their busy days the Hulk doing its thing the Hogwarts castle stunning and Then on this side you get to see all of the people coming into the park So amazing you can even see the speakers that have like the voice effects and the sounds for when you're walking through islands of adventure Now I'm at the table, and I'm happy that we're gonna dine inside it is nicely themed Mardi Gras, but I'm more about the AC at the moment I mean, it's a beautiful day out there, but you got a cool off. We got us. You got to stay cool I've been joined by Jackie Cheers to Confisco Take a look at the menu they have the feature UO AP favorite the wagyu beef burger this changes weekly and I think I've had this already in the past Last time I was here I had the pad thai and it was good, but the best part was the protein I wasn't a big fan of the sauce, but they have other amazing things like I showed before but today It's all about the wagyu The wagyu burger came and it looks so amazing I got the onions and the garlic aioli on the side along with the Cheese because I don't know how I was gonna feel about that. It kind of looks like slices of cake. Doesn't it? Very fancy, and then of course it comes with french fries You know I was in the mood for a burger today, and I think Confisco's delivered. Oh Yeah, that was delicious. I added a little french fries on there I love the red wine caramelized onions and the garlic aioli. The only thing I didn't go with was the brie cheese It's not a big fan of the brie Now we are all done with dinner and it was amazing I absolutely love the burger, but it's time to move on to the park and ride some rides First ride of the evening is gonna be in Seuss landing, and it's gonna be the Kero Seussel Kero Seussel. I don't know how to pronounce it so much. Maybe you guys can give me a go Kero Seussel Carousel I have been on a carousel kick recently riding all different types I did a double decker one a small one a Disney Springs one So when I was coming to Universal today, I was like, you know what I'm gonna ride the carousel there And we get to see thing one thing two and the cat in the hat. How awesome is that? I think that all just rhymed That's the way to get in the mood. They're really fun, and they actually dance around and pose with you I like how they do the like meet and greets now I mean, it's great to go up and be able to hug a character and stuff like that But socially distance like that. I still think it's very fun I even like the Grinch because he could still insult you from a distance It also looks like the carousel is only a five-minute wait So we're not you're gonna use our universal express pass even though we could These guys are a lot more special. Look at this so fancy, right? I don't know which one I want to get on. Oh, look how happy that cow looks We need more cowbell Jackie more cowbell Lift it up. Yeah Oh Beautiful, I really like this. It's not a carousel. It's a carousel Carousel You can even see there's some animations on the top, too Yeah Oh, we're coming to an end here Now you need more cowbell Since we just got off the carousel, maybe we'll head on over to one fish two fish red fish blue fish One fish two fish red fish blue fish is kind of like Dumbo But it looks so relaxing. Oh, you actually get wet on this ride. Don't tell Jackie I bet you she doesn't know so we're gonna catch her off guard and if we sit together I'm gonna sit on the inside so I don't get as wet This is your first time riding this right? I Am about a hundred percent sure she has never rode this ride before or else she would know that you get wet Each one is actually marked. So this is blue fish. Yep I don't know why it's wet That's from a drink dangling in the water It's dangling in the water. We don't actually get wet, but because the seatbelts hang over the cards It looks like you get wet. It's like a little bit of a splash. Oh, yeah, because this shuts off This shuts off when it takes off. It really tricks you and it makes you think you're getting You're definitely tricked right like you think you're gonna get wet, but you don't And you do control it up and down So that's really awesome and each one is actually marked one fish two fish blue fish red fish Our fish ride is now beginning. We're going all the way up all the way up all the way up Oh It was all part it was all it was all a prank it was all a part of it I knew I knew it was happening. I knew you didn't know that's why I was like, hey Is it your first time riding this? Uh-huh. I got you So far we're doing excellent road to rides and had dinner and now we're gonna head on over to the lost continent There's no rides over here, but maybe we'll get a drink. If not, we'll just proceed right to Hogsmeade Look at your name tag Hi Jinx. Oh, you're good. Yo, our friend. Hi Jinx is showing us how he Engraves these necklaces Like isn't that fancy you get to pick a design and he makes it right here. I Never knew it. It's stamping in it. Oh stamping not engraving Hammer coming down Lotus flower Very very fancy Well, thank you, sir Jinx That was really cool. I didn't even know that was there in my buddy Orlando Mike And he told me that it is an opening day thing like that coin Well stamper has been there since opening day of Islands of Adventure So now we're gonna head right on into Hogsmeade Maybe check out Flight of Hippogrith and also maybe a hogs head. Who knows? But look at that Can never get tired of walking in the Hogsmeade In fact, I think that sounds like a great plan So we're gonna hop in the hogs head and grab a beer and then head on over to the flight of Hippogrith Which is one of my favorite rides And they now have officially changed the entrance to Hogshead So you have to walk through the alleyway. That seems like something fancy But you'd also get a good view of the Velocic coaster from back here I like it a lot Good day, thank you And here it is Take a look at that three layers So we start at the bottom there and it's got that nice cider and a very light color Then we go up a little bit to the hogs head and that's the original like a beer that they have here And then of course topping off with Guinness There's just something good about sitting out here drinking your beer watching the coaster Definitely gives out good vibes I used to love coming out here and eating before the coaster was ever even like built so still very relaxing Oh boy Cheers to the Velocic coaster Oh the lights turned on Now we're all finished up and we need to head on over to the Hippogrith But some plants are making a lot of noise back here You want a butter beer you would you like hot cold or frozen? Now it's time we get on a flight of the Hippogrith only a 15 minute week and we're gonna use our express The reason this is one of my favorite rides is because of the views of Hogwarts castle you get it's so Magnificent from up there and you're so close I mean it's kind of just like a slow roller coaster more or less like the goofy roller coaster at the Magic Kingdom, but I love it Look at this hang on to your hat there Jackie Look at that view isn't it amazing? Wait till we get over here when we peak. I love it You get to see all of Universal Wow We're going down much too good. I love it so quick the rides like literally 20 seconds I am half tempted to hop back on again because it is a walk on really got about 20 minutes left of the park being open So I don't know if we're gonna try to ride something else or if we're gonna do that again Wow look at that Beautiful walking through here right now. It's a shame the parks are closing so early 20 minutes to go and the park is shutting down It's so beautiful out But now we're coming up on my second favorite part of Universal and you can hear the music. It's kicking in Welcome to Jurassic Park Oh, I love it. I Would totally be all about riding Jurassic Park except for we would get totally soaked and we can't film on it So I think we'll head on over to Kong which is the next ride because I just marvel whenever I see Kong Marvel at the great King Kong Before we ride Kong we get to come face-to-face with another Amazing predator. Look at that. So happy to see it back. It's been gone away for a while But here we are with just three minutes to spare Skull Island Definitely the scariest queue out of any ride I've ever been on Amazing Look at it So terrifying in here There it is. Thank you Fun fact it was my childhood dream to always come to Universal Studios and ride jaws and Kong Sadly I got to ride jaws but Kong was gone before I ever came here So this is the closest that I got to it But I wish that I could have rode that original Kong confrontation. I can only imagine how great it would have been I still love the animatronic at the end of this because a lot of people don't even know it's an animatronic But at the end there you come face-to-face with Kong He is huge and he's ferocious and he actually like yells and you can feel the vibrations But wow, I love it. Like I said, I really get happy about Kong Sadly enough now the park is closed look at all this amazing weather and skies Makes me so sad when they close at seven and six o'clock because like, you know, it's just like a perfect day Like I would actually love to close out the night by taking a dip down this and getting soaking wet But they won't let us in line So we're gonna make our way out of Islands of Adventure into city walk Like I said, it's just a shame that they're closing on the park right now Maybe it's cuz I just want to go all night long into the night Well too bad we weren't able to ride that bad boy Boy look at her go look at him go I think I'm gonna call it a night here so much fun I feel like we got so much accomplished in three hours Let me know in the comments what your favorite thing was. I hope you enjoyed the video I enjoyed making it. We'll see you next time. Bye If you guys made it this long in the video, I want to reward you with a Beautiful sunset from Islands of Adventure. So I hope you guys enjoy. We'll see you next time. Bye
