Olive Oyl is going to have a great view of her two
suitors here. This is a three-level children’s playground with water obstacles,
not too different from Donald Duck's boat out in the Magic Kingdom. This
one is far more elaborate though. You have crawl spaces and gizmos on the
first floor, including a cool net climb above swirling sharks below, and
slides from the second and third floor decks. There is an elevator available
and if you get off on the middle deck check out the piano. If you play the
colored notes in the proper sequence an orchestra will ring out with the
rest of Popeye's theme song. There is also another special feature here as
the boat overlooks the Popeye & Bluto ride and this unseaworthy boat
is stocked with water cannons. Yes, as wet as you are going to get on the
Popeye raft ride, it could get worse if somebody from The Olive decides to
aim a burst of water your way. If you have a three or four year old who didn't
make the cut for the Popeye ride, find solace in bringing him or her here
to fire away at those who did make the cut -- and maybe even an older
sibling.
By booking your stay at one of the three onsite resorts you will not only be staying a short walk or complimentary boat ride from the park -- you will also receive the Universal Express Front-of-the-Line benefit to avoid long lines like the ones on Toon Lagoon's two other rides quickly.
