If you, like us, are feeling a little blue about the fact that this year's much longed for summer holidays are coming to an end, you might have started planning next year's trip already?
And if not, you might want to consider a trip to Orlando, Florida, where Universal have just opened the doors to their latest park – Volcano Bay, an all-new water theme park like none other.
Made up of four immersive areas – complete with 18 seriously jaw-dropping attractions, Universal's Volcano Bay is a tropical 'island' like you have never seen one before – complete with island breeze and breathtakingly lush views.
Oh, and the best bit? In true 'the-future-is-here' spirit, you won't have to wait in line (and risk a heat stroke) for any of the rides. When you enter the park, you'll simply get handed a specifically designed waterproof wrist-band – the TapuTapu —to hold your place in the Virtual Line for one attraction at a time.
Clever or what?
In fact, the whole park looks like a must-see to us:

How does winding rivers, raft rides, whitewater torrents, body slides, twisty tube-slides and tropical beaches sound?
Yeah, us too. Orlando; here we come.
