A Trip to Jurassic World in My Alan Grant Bound

The kiddo and I recently got to go back to Universal Studios Hollywood to check out the new Jurassic World section on the lower lot.

We had a fantastic time!  The area was packed!  Packed!  So, Benji couldn’t even ride the updated ride.  Even with the single-rider line (I’m too chicken to go on it), the wait was over an hour and a half!  So, next time.  Also, the triceratops wasn’t out and about.  So, also next time.  Now we have an excuse to go back, not that we really needed one.

But, we DID get to pet Tango, the baby raptor…

We also got to meet Blue and give her a command.  It was awesome!

I know we looked scared at a dude in a suit, but once you are face to face with Blue, let’s just say it’s a little nerve-wracking!

For our day at the park, I wore my Alan Grant bound.

The Team Build is as follows:

  • The Leader is the blue shirt and bandana combo
  • The Brick is the skirt
  • The Scientist are the Chuck Taylors
  • The Exotic is also the bandana and the aviator sunglasses
  • The Blaster doesn’t really apply, but a nice natural make-up works

This bound was super comfy, even with the super hot day.  I really love the skirt so much.  Retrolicious pieces are size-inclusive and reasonably priced.  Check out their website here.

Happy shopping!

Until next time…

Love, Kim and Benji
