Whilst in Kyoto, we took a break from the traditional sight-seeing, and went to Universal Studios in Osaka. The highlights were the Jurassic park ride which ended in an 80 foot drop and getting soaked.
The rides were very similar to those in L.A, although the Jaws ride included an impressive explosion emitting lots of black smoke, that probably wouldn't be permitted in other countries.
