Islands of Adventure: Best Island?
Which "island" of IOA do you think is the best themed, has the best attractions, or is just your very favorite to visit and hang out? Remember how your English teacher added on a test "Please explain your answers"

I the theming of all of IoA! My favourite islands are Toon Lagoon, Seuss Landing and the Lost Continent. Seuss Landing is so playful and I feel like a little girl again when I'm there. Toon Lagoon is hilarious with all the sight gags and it's a great place to cool off on a hot day because it's so wet . And the Lost Continent is just plain cool, plus it's the home of the Duelling Dragons, which is my favourite coaster.

The Lost Continent and Jurassic Park, because of the wonderful theming in both. Toon Lagoon is a lot of fun as well.

Super Hero Island is my favorite right now because they had some of my favorite rides, especially Spider Man. I haven't explored all the islands as much as I want so that might change at some point.

Suess Landing, without a doubt, is the best themed land. It is so colorful and there is nothing else like it!

I'm also a fan of Toon Lagoon for all its photo opportunities with the comic "bubbles".
