It was a nice tour we had in Universal Studios. It is actually called a Studio Tour or The Backlot Tour, an attraction at the Universal Studios Hollywood theme park in the USA.




From 1915 when visitors sat on bleachers for 25 cents, to the 1964 introduction of pink and white GlamorTrams, to the current technological sophistication, the behind-the-scenes view of a working movie studio has been a large attraction. During the early years of the tram tour (1964–1965) all of the attractions at Universal were reached via the tram. The tour originally departed from the front lot comissary. In 1965, the upper lot studio tour center opened.

In 1991, the tram boarding was moved to the lower lot following the construction of the Starway escalator system. In 1996, boarding moved back to the upper lot to make room for Jurassic Park: The Ride.

As the movie studio continues to evolve, the tour evolves alongside it. In late 1989, CD players finally gave the tour guides a chance to rest their voices. In 2000, the CD players were replaced by DVD players and LCD screens, allowing the tour guides to show scenes from movies filmed at the locations the tram passes.

Since 2006, the studio tours bypassed the Collapsing Bridge, due to aging and wearing. However, the bridge has since undergone renovations, and was added back to the tour schedules in August 2008. Since July 2010, the Collapsing Bridge is now used as a representation of the Skull Island city for the new King Kong: 360 3-D attraction. wikipedia.

Dream came true! It happened as we visited Hollywood Universal Studios in Los Angeles, California. It was a great experience visiting the place of the rich and famous especially the so-called Hollywood stars. Here is one of the pictures that my sister took of me during our visit in this place last June 2008.

I would also like to share that during my two months vacation in the United States, I gained more pounds. I forgot to take weight loss products to get rid of those excess weight. Gaining extra weight was the result of our frequent dining-out in Las Vegas plus eating a lot of in fast food restaurants in this city. I guess I have to try taking weight loss supplements this time. You know what's the best in the market? I mean the one which doesn't give any side effects? Happy weekend once again!

This is one of the best things that happened to me as I visited United States. I had the chance to visit the entertainment capital of Los Angeles, California, the Universal Studios Hollywood. After we visited Disneyland in California for two days, we proceeded to Universal Studios to have a little sightseeing. It was just a day sightseeing trip. Here are of the images I have during our visit.

It's been two years now since I visited United States for two months. I stayed most of the time in my sister's place in Las Vegas, Nevada. We also had the chance to visit Los Angeles. California. As far as I can remember we drove from Las Vegas to LA for around 6 hours. My cousin's husband used a gps to ease our travel. This gadget which is also known as Global Positioning System make our travel more convenient and easy. I am sharing a picture above taken at Hollywood Studio in Los Angeles, California. I still wish to visit this place once again.

I guess most people want to visit and experience Hollywood in Los Angeles, California. I guess I am lucky to see this place. My cousin was wondering how many pictures I took in Hollywood. I don't always go to this place so it is better to take some memories with me by taking pictures. I wish to share more images from Hollywood but I was not able to bring my lappy with me. I also wish to increase my laptop memory when I go back to Europe next year. Just enjoy browsing this site of mine and have fun watching my Hollywood pictures.

Did you have the chance to watch the action-thriller movie of Steven Spielberg entitled "War of the Worlds"? Did you just see my picture above? This was taken during our tour in Universal Studio in Hollywood, California last June 2008. This is where they shoot that interesting movie. I am very happy to see and experience the city of the rich and famous in the United States. That was an awesome moment!

Lastly, if you live now in the U.S. and looking for Automated External Defibrillator or AED, feel free to browse the web. For sure you will land to AmericanAED.com. They offer the newest and the most reliable AEDs. I wish you all a wonderful evening!

Anybody there who wants to visit Universal Studios Hollywood in Los Angeles, California? How I wish I am a millionaire or will win the lotto so that I can give you a free trip to have fun in this place! wink! This landmark or architecture in the picture here is the first one you will when you enter the Universal Studios. Don't forget to take a pose before you enter or leave this place. I am just grateful that I visited this place last year! Thanks for all the sponsors! Have a great weekend in advance!

it seems that my beautiful niece was caught in the camera..I also see the blue cap of my sister...wish to visit this place once again!

I just remember a story of what had happened during our escapade at Hollywood, Universal Studio in Los Angeles, California last year. Frankenstein was just standing still. He never move. Later on, a girl stand in his side eating ice cream. Frankenstein go nearer to the girl and the girl was so scared as he see him moved. She dropped her ice cream and ran-away. That was the time that I stroked a pose to my new friend in Hollywood. wink! Isn't he scary? I guess not.

On more thing, I guess my old computer that I am using right now is having system memory problem. Around 80 percent of its memory is used. I need to transfer thousands of pictures to my hard disk drive and delete them afterwards. I love using this old pc of mine instead of my new netbook.

I managed to smile in this photo even though I had a headache that time. I can't forget that because I went to the bathroom and vomited because of pain. More updates next time! take care everyone!

I can't believe it! I thought that it is only in my dreams to come to this famous city of the world. The "City of Angels" as it is called..the city of the rich and famous! I was there and I was so happy with that experience. I can smile till my ears due to happiness when I went walking at the Universal Walk where L.A. comes to play ! Special thanks to my dearest sister and cousin Ann during my stay in the United States. It was truly a great experience! I hope to be backed soon! in God's will!
Los Angeles is the largest city in the state of California and the second largest in the United States.

Los Angeles was founded September 4, 1781, by Spanish governor Felipe de Neve as El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Angeles del Río de Porciúncula (The Village of Our Lady, the Queen of the Angels of the river of Porziuncola). It became a part of Mexico in 1821, following its independence from Spain. In 1848, at the end of the Mexican-American War, Los Angeles and California were purchased as part of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, thereby becoming part of the United States; Mexico retained the territory of Baja California. Los Angeles was incorporated as a municipality on April 4, 1850, five months before California achieved statehood.

It is home to renowned institutions covering a broad range of professional and cultural fields, and is one of the most substantial economic engines within the United States. As the home base of Hollywood, it is known as the "Entertainment Capital of the World", leading the world in the creation of motion pictures, television production and recorded music. The importance of the entertainment business to the city has led many celebrities to call Los Angeles and its surrounding suburbs home. source wikipedia

I was there a year ago! We had a sightseeing at the Universal Studio in Hollywood, California. It's very awesome how they made films in this place. As we toured around we saw a lot of areas where they filmed movies like Fast and Furious, Desperate Housewives, Shark, Jurassic park and a lot more. The photo I had below was also taken there. Sad to say, I can't remember the name of that movie. I will see if I can post an info about it next time..time to slowly sign-off! have a great weekend to all!
Universal Studios (sometimes called Universal Pictures, Universal City Studios or Universal for short), a subsidiary of NBC Universal, is one of the six major American movie studios. Its production studios are located at 100 Universal City Plaza Drive in Universal City, California. Distribution and other corporate offices are based in New York City. Universal Pictures is the second longest-lived Hollywood studio; Viacom-owned Paramount Pictures is the oldest by a month.

If there is a true Hollywood in California, you can also see one in Disneyland, California. I had great and unforgettable experiences in this place. and to give you a proof about my escapades here, below a picture for you to see. I miss my US trip! It was a wonderful one!

I really don't expect that I can visit Hollywood in Los Angeles, California. Special thanks to my sister and her hubby for the great vacation in the US last year. We also had a tour in Universal Studio where the famous films are being shoot.

It was an amazing experience seeing the so-called city of the stars and the famous. We also did a lot of walking especially in Universal Studios where we enjoyed seeing some shows. Don't you know that the founder of the Universal is a German Jewish guy. His name is Carl Laemmle, from Laupheim who settled in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. I guess you better surf the net about him for more stories about Universal Studios. Anyway, if I can probably go walking everyday in Hollywood I might loss some kilos or else I need to find a liporexall reviews to know if it is really effective. I miss our escapades in Hollywood! have a nice day to all!
