Epic Universe is….Epic. - Barney Stinson


 Epic Universe is….Epic. - Barney Stinson


Spent one full day at Epic Universe, the new park at Universal.  It was magical.  Beautifully themed and immersive.  We stayed on the property, so we were able to arrive an hour early. We also purchased the express pass, which allowed us to skip the line once for each ride included.  At the time that we went Dragon Racer's Rally, Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry, and Mine-Cart Madness were excluded.  I elected to ride Mine-Cart Madness as I am a Nintendo person and skipped the Harry Potter ride.  It was an expensive day, but so worth it.  


Phil and I were the oldest people in the park.  There were very few young children and virtually no strollers.  This is a park aimed squarely at about 15-40 year olds.  Even the “family” coaster at the Isle of Berk ( How to Train your Dragon) was thrilling.  


We had pizza at Pizza Moon, and while we were discussing the roller coaster Stardust Racers, the college-age girl sitting next to us said, “ My boyfriend is in the bathroom getting sick because it was so extreme.”  He surfaced looking none the worse, proving it is good to be young. We did indeed ride it, and it was the most thrilling and extreme coaster I have ever been on.  It was my favorite ride of the trip.


As is so common for me, this day was made possible by Ozempic.  I would never have gone to this park if I had not lost weight.  


If anyone has any questions, throw them my way.
