Boy, was I wrong! The crowds were absolutely insane. Rachel and I were not prepared for the sheer number of people packed into that small area. It was like an invasion of theme park enthusiasts had taken over the whole place. Despite the crowds, we still managed to find some hidden gems. I stumbled upon an awesome Wicked merchandise store that had me geeking out hardcore. And we even stumbled across a Back to the Future III reference that brought back so much nostalgia. All in all, it was a wild and unexpected adventure - not quite the peaceful Disney-esque escape I had envisioned, but still a fun day out with my wife exploring the craziness of Universal CityWalk.</p> https://zonklife.com/posts/2026-03-16-back-to-the-future-delorean-model-marty-cap-found-shorts/ Mon, 16 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://zonklife.com/posts/2026-03-16-back-to-the-future-delorean-model-marty-cap-found-shorts/ <figure class="video video--short"> <div class="video-frame"> <iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/0gvs_1vJmTc?rel=0" title="Back to the Future DeLorean Model &amp; Marty Cap Found!" loading="lazy" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe> </div> </figure> <h2 id="summary">Summary</h2> <p>Today was a thrilling day for this Back to the Future fan! After visiting Universal Studios, I stumbled upon a DeLorean model and a Marty McFly hat that instantly brought back all the nostalgia. As I wandered through the CityWalk area, I couldn&rsquo;t help but wonder if all the other people I saw were fellow movie lovers like me, heading home from an exciting day at the park. It&rsquo;s always such a treat to discover hidden gems from my favorite films, and this unexpected find definitely made my day even more special.</p>
