Universal Orlando April 2017


Harry Potter World!
This was the kids favorite part.

The Hogwarts Express is a very cool new ride that links Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley.  During the train ride you see Harry, Ron, and Hermione.  You see Hagrid and a Hippogriff and even Voldermort.  It really feels like you're there.
Entrance to Hogsmeade
Hogwarts Castle was Dad's favorite.



Can't you just hear the music?







Olivander's Wand Shop.  Each time you go there they choose a person from the audience to participate.  Well Will was chosen twice and Brenny and Ellie once.  And that wasn't even all the times we went . During this trip we told the kids that the only suvouneers that they would get were what they were willing to pay for.  They all worked really hard up to the trip to earn enough money to buy a wand.  The interactive wands cost $50.  All of the kids purchased their wands one of the 1st things. On our 2nd day at Harry Potter World we were standing in an unusually long long for the Hogwarts express.  William noticed a little boy just behind in line that had a stick for a wand.  William asked me if there might be people here would could not afford a wand.  to which I replied, "Sweetie it takes some people all their money just to get here.  They don't have money to spend on a wand."  This shocked him and almost broke his heart.  He wanted to give this little boy his wand that he spent all his money on because his heart is so big.  He fretted over it for an hour.  I makes my mama heart proud to see my child worry over the happiness of others.

Gringotts Bank
Butterbeer!!! Man that stuff is magical.

All around the park there are spells that will make things happen.  One of them is making water come out of the pixie.

Shopping in Diagon Alley

If you say the spell just right water will fall from the umbrella.







Brenny trying Fishy Green Ale

Fishy Green Ale is very interesting. It's a minty drink with cinnamon and the little blue things on the bottom are blue berry flavored boba balls.  Like I said interesting.
