America (Part 32)

The Final Chapter
A year ago today (15/10/10) my family and I were on our way home from an Amazing 2 & a half weeks in America.
We went to: New York, Salt Lake, Las Vegas and LA.
It has taken me exactly a whole year to edit every single picture we took whilst there, 
but has been worth the wait. 

Finishing off where we began: New York.
We flew from LAX airport to JFK. We had to wait for 5 hours for our next flight which would 
take us back home. Because we had loads of time, we decided to check in our luggage early.
At 9:00pm we boarded the plane. The flight lasted just over 7 hours long. Our luggage was waiting 
for us at London Heathrow, it had come on the flight before ours. We had to wait another 2 & a half hours for our coach back to Leicester. Then Home Sweet Home. 
First thing I did when we got home was take a shower, then go on my laptop. 
It was the Best Holiday Ever!!! 

Flying into JFK airport, you can see the New York skyline.


Sadly that's the end of My America Holiday.
Hope you enjoyed each part as much as I did editing them.

America (Part 31)

Universal Studios Day 2: Is still on the tour round all of the different sets. 

This was inside a train station, set to have an earthquake along with many explosions.

The water mains burst.

I think this is Wisteria Lane from Desperate Housewives, but I could be wrong.




The tour ended so we headed over to the rides :)









This was the last show we went to before going to the gift-shops. It was a water show that had actors and 
actresses from all different kinds of TV shows like: 9O21O, Grey's Anatomy, Gossip Girl and many more.
Each section of seats had their very own actor who got us to try and get the other teams wet by cheering the loudest. If we lost, then we got wet. It was Brilliant. GO TEAM MIDDLE!!!






The airplane in this picture literally came from over the top of the set and landed just behind the barrier. 
It was so scary, I thought it was going to land right on top of us.


America (Part 30)

Universal Studios Day 2: This next lot of pictures are from the plane crash scene in the movie
War Of The Worlds








These next two pictures you can see a burnt man standing. Don't worry, he is just a dummy.
That goes for the rest of the cast you can see splattered everywhere.

America (Part 29)

Universal Studios...........its still day 2.

King Kong Cave

Was crushed by King Kong lol








This was really clever. It seems the water is going to hit us, but in fact there is a wall (which we cannot see) that stops it and a drain further along the path to prevent it from hitting us. All part of the Special Effects.









AHHH!!! LOOKOUT HE'S GOT A KNIFE :O
He really is holding a knife, and he really was chasing us with it. But of course he's only pretending.
