Universal Studios
June 7, 2006




Through the Los Angeles haze, we head for Hollywood...




...and Universal Studios.









In this valley, there's an entire city of....house facades.




Indoor studios




Looks quite real, eh?






a collection of famous movie vehicles








Jurassic Park









Suddenly, it starts raining, and the place is flooded.... (1116 kB movie file)





Are we in rural Mexico?




Or in the wild west?




I guess it's all façades...









A house from "Desperate Housewives"




The Grinch who stole Christmas




as seen in "Psycho"




Airplane crash scene from "War of the Worlds"









(What happens when it rains here?)



















A blue backdrop makes you realize how gray the sky is here...




King Kong




Alright, where to next?




We find ourselves in a dark chemical plant...




...that suddenly explodes!




And I thought *I* had big feet.




Running up these stairs....is hard.




Waterworld




action packed show on water



















incoming airplane









You're in trouble now.














Eventually, the whole thing is on fire...




Are you scared?




finding ourselves in downtown London









or in Paris, for matter




As the day reaches an end, we head down to the Santa Monica pier.




fine Mexican dining




...and a stroll along the amusement park.









testing the water




A bit cold, but not bad.




G'night.
