Islands of Adventure Update - JPRA Rehab and More

Hello,a nd welcome to a quick Islands of Adventure update! We just have a few new things to share with you, so let's not lose any time, and let's start by taking a look around the park:

Something is not open today:

Universal has finally removed from one of the shop's windows the item with the strange tag (which was not supposed to be there, of course).

BEFORE:



NOW:

Some wait-times:

Let's visit the rest of the park by going clockwise. The first "island" will be MARVEL Superhero Island:

A new sign advertises the Spiderman Meet-and-Greet:

The Amazing Adventures of Spiderman will close for a short refurbishment on February 8, 2012:

A look around Toon Lagoon:

Most of the facades and props in the area have been repainted:

One of our favorite rides is looking great:

Dudley Do-Right's Ripsaw Falls has reopened, and it looks good:

Some areas still need some attention, though:

Now, let's move to Jurassic Park:

The Jurassic Park River Adventure attraction is currently closed for its seasonal refurbishment:

The entire ride area is walled-off, as they do every year or so:

We personally liked better the "themed" signs that referred to the fictional InGen Corporation. Now they decided to put out a general sign:

The ride's entrance:

The Natural Selection snack stand is also closed for refurbishment:

Triceratops Discovery Trail is closed:

...as well as the bridge that leads to the Lost Continent (it will continue to be used by guests seasonally):

Moving over to Seuss Landing, we noticed that the sign of the High in the Sky Seuss Trolley Train Ride is currently missing:

Nearby, you can also notice that a section of the "If I Ran the Zoo" play area is again closed for refurbishment:

Before ending this update, let's take a quick look around CityWalk:

The Hard Rock Cafe' is still being repainted:

Only a few spots are left:

The Blue Man Group will soon be back with a brand-new show:

And we'll end with a photo of the new LED lights that were recently installed on the big, circular structure that houses the entrance area of Universal's AMC Cineplex (you can find a video of these lights HERE):

And that is all. Thank you for reading, and see you tomorrow with many more updates!
