Of course we had to head to Warner Bros Movie World, a must do if you're up at the Goldy on holidays.
We saw the original Batmobile from the 1989 movie with Michael Keaton and stopped for photos with Scooby Doo and Shaggy.
We caught the tail end of the gorgeous Marilyn Monroe but she left to get changed and then ended up appearing at the Looney Tunes dance party as the host.
A favourite attraction of mine is the Hollywood Stunt Driver 2 car show where they have drivers drift around a small track and get extras from the crowd to act out an action movie. Unfortunately I didn't get picked but that gave me a good opportunity to get some filming in.
The Sylvester and Tweety Cages and Yosemite Sam's Railroad were good rides for the kiddies - safe, quiet and not very scary.
After grabbing a bite to eat at the Gorham City Cafe we stumbled across the Joker and Wonder Woman who were posing for photos.
Superman Escape is one of the better rides at Movie World but this time we didn't end up going on it so we had a bit of a walk around to see what was new. The last time we were here we sent our parents on the Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster which actually turned out to be one of the scariest rides at the park! Unfortunately this time around it was closed.
A bit further on was the Doomsday Destroyer which looked like The Pirate Ship but on steroids. Wife and I decided to hit the Wild West Falls Ride where I whipped out the GoPro for some reaction footage.
The Justice League 3D ride was closed for part of the day but reopened a short time later so we lined up for that with about another couple of hundred people.
The Streets Star Parade sees all the characters come out to say hi to the crowd (Unfortunately no Marilyn Monroe) which generally signifies that it's almost time to head home.
I couldn't resist having a crack at the Junior Driving School which is like driving go karts specifically for little kids. And big kids too like myself.
