At least there wasnt slugs in it!
This morning, we had to get up SO EARLY!!! We had to be at Islands of Adventure by 6:45 am! Now I am usually a morning person, but this was NOT OKAY. Anyway, somehow, I managed to rise at such a ridiculous hour in the morning and get myself ready. Our plan was to hit Harry Potter and then Mum would go back and check us out of the resort and have a relax by the pool while the rest of us stayed to experience IoAs other attractions.
I went with the healthy option for breakfast!
The hotel food court opens in time so all the crazy people who want to head out early can eat first.
We then headed out of the resort and down the footpath to the theme park.
Once wed got through the turnstiles, I went at an extremely fast pace to be first into the Wizarding World. I WAS ALMOST FIRST!!! I bet the people who beat me cheated using their wands. I was so excited, Ive been wanting to see this for years. I am a huge Harry Potter fan, so this was the main reason wed come to Universal.
We were one of the first people in line for the Forbidden Journey. We basically walked through all the preshow stuff so we couldnt stop to take many pictures.
At the loading area, Mum went through the chicken exit (she only queued to see the inside of the castle) We later concluded that Dad probably should have done the same. You see, while the ride (to me) was exciting, thrilling and enjoyable. To Dad, however, it was a rough, terrifying ordeal.
Unbeknown to us, whilst my sisters and I were screaming in delight, my poor Dad was struggling to hang on to his breakfast. It wasnt until we came off (and someone actually told me) that we found out that hed lost the battle!
Poor Dad had thrown up whilst on the ride and had managed to catch it in his shirt- thankfully for the rest of us! Dad was in such a mess he had to go back to the hotel. Luckily for him, a nice member of staff at the ride gave him a clean shirt for him to wear so he could go and clean himself up.
Those shenanigans left us all feeling a little queasy, so instead of going straight onto the Dragon Challenge, I went in the queuing area and did a little Hogwarts photography. My mum took my sisters to lay on a bench feeling a lot worse than I was, having actually seen Dad. Clearly 7.15 am is a little early to ride the Forbidden Journey!
I was starting to feel a bit better by now and I didnt want the line for the Dragon Challenge to build up too much so I gave my phone back to my mum and got in the queue.
I went the Chinese Fireball side, mainly because I was just following the family in front of me and I didnt actually see the other side. It was so fun! Quite rough though, but I loved it. I loved it so much that I went right back on, but the Hungarian Horntail this time. I felt it was about the same, the ride was a little different but not so much that youre missing out on anything if you dont do both sides. They are both great fun.
At some point while i was riding this happened!
#LOL
Up next- The wand chooses the wizard
But it's worth it to be one of the first ones into Harry Potter! 
but it was nice of them to give him a shirt so he didn't have to walk around like that!
Thank you!
