As we ease into the New Year we're starting to get back into our general update pattern and today we've got our first Universal Studios Hollywood Update of the new year. 
Even though we know/have heard of a lot of new things coming right now it seems that most everything is kind of small. We don't really like to say definitively what's coming until we know 100% but that doesn't mean it's not fun to speculate. ;) 
If you haven't used Metro to the park yet, it's really easy and the new pedestrian bridge makes it super easy to do.

Wizarding World always looks great, but I think we can all admit there's something special about seeing it in the rain. Maybe because this is really the first time we've been able to see it in the rain was just within the last few weeks? 

The 5 minute waits for Forbidden Journey don't hurt either.

The employees in this shot almost equal the amount of guests.

Krusty's mouth ... the ride. 
Picture
A new Starway is being added to bring guests up and down the hill. For future capacity or something or other. ;) 

Imagine that, a park taking advanced steps and improving their infrastructure before crowds show up.

Of course, any time you have construction and rain you get mud. Wheeeee!!!

Everything is so green in CA right now, it's so nice for a change.

Down at the bottom you can see all of the work being done to add more Starway capacity.

I mean, it's already raining, might as well. =) 
Picture
Seriously, even cell phone pics of Wizarding World look amazing in the rain.

The cold and rain make cool effects on the CityWalk fountain

Speaking of CityWalk, these pics are a few days old but we figured we'd include them here. 

Work is FINALLY being done on Voodoo Donuts.

Margaritaville is also looking great, they've been hiring so if you're looking for a job at CityWalk be sure to follow @ushjobs on Twitter.

Alrighty, that's going to wrap it up for this update. We should hopefully be back at the park soon for the Lunar New Year which is beginning soon. We'll be sure to get more pics of the park projects when we do.

Yes, USH doesn't have any issues running their rides in the rain as most of them are indoors.

Even the harry potter outdoor mini coaster? Whats it called....flight of the hippogriff?
We are planning to go this Saturday and it's a 50% chance of rain so I just wanted to know if I was going to be able to see all of Harry Potter wizarding world or not ;)
