Day 1

First day of the most exciting trip of our life! We had breakfast in our hotel at 7am and had an orientation meeting an hour later with the chaperons and the students of both the buses! The meeting was about the rules that we should fallow in order to enjoy the trip and some advice about how to spend money. After the meeting bus one and bus two took different ways. In bus one, where I belong, we went to the universal studios. We arrived there, took some pictures while our chaperon Anna bought the ticket and than after we decided at what time we had to meet for dinner, we were free to move alone inside the park. I moved with a group of 4-5 people and the fun thing is that I started with certain people and ended up with new one. The rides were awesome and really technological, almost all of them were 3D. There were lots of Movie characters waking around the park, so you where able to take pictures with them. The park was divided per zones. The upper part was divided by the universal studio tour which was a tour around the stages where some of the most famous movies are produced, that was my favorite part of the day.. My dream finally came true. Another zone was the Simpson's, it was divided in restaurants, rides and street games. The cool thing of this part of the park was the feeling of being part of the cartoon, eating at The Krusty Burger and taking picture with the Simpson family; the upper zone was than composed by few other rides, mostly for younger people. Moving to the down part, with escalators or stairs, there where three main and big rides: Jurassic park, the mummy and Transformers. My favorite was absolutely the Jurassic park one;

It was a water ride so most of us got socked on it, but I assure that it was worth!! 

Each ride was really fun and cool, but the only bad/annoying thing about them was the lines waiting time, between 40 mins and an hour or more each. Other than that, amazing day and awesome experience. The park was really clean and organized. At 6.45 pm we were supposed to meet all  in the park entrance so at 7 pm we went for dinner in a street by the park to a restaurant called Bubble Gum, really cute and crazy.. The food not the best but neither the worst. 

Awesome way to start the trip! We can't wait to go through this two weeks living as much as possible

each moment, making unforgettable memories with this amazing people.
