The Most Miserly Mom must share her thoughts on her most favorite ride of all at Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure — The Mummy!
This ride offers twists and turns of the unexpected — It’s a coaster in the dark and it surely rivals Disney’s Space Mountain in that respect.
The Most Miserly Mom does not want to give away the secrets of the Mummy and all the fun the ride has to offer, but let me just say that not only is it an adrenaline rush - it is a homage to The Mummy And to a HUGE FURRY SCARY icon of the past - King Kong.
The next time you travel to Universal’s Islands of Adventure, as you ride The Mummy, see if you can find the tribute to King Kong!
The Most Miserly Mom is not only miserly with her money - she is also miserly with her time. Most families are the same way, right? No one wants to wait in line too long with their impatient (but happy) children? Well, here is one tip for Islands of Adventure that the Most Miserly Mom must share with you.
When you hit the park running at opening time (9:00am) head towards Dueling Dragons instead of The Hulk if you are ready for a morning adrenaline rush. The Hulk’s lines immediately begin, and by the time you arrive may have a 30 minute wait. Dueling Dragons, on the other hand, will most likely have a 5 minute wait! So, grab your teens and get ready to flip, flop, and roll on an awesome coaster.
The Most Miserly Mom definitely recommends this one!
