So the weekend before last {October 24th} was my 6th wedding anniversary. This year, the hubbs & I decided to just go to Orlando for a quick getaway.
Friday night {10/22/10} we went to Halloween Horror Nights - 20 Years of Fear and then on Saturday, we spent the day at Islands of Adventure and I FINALLY got to visit The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
Oh my gawd you guys, it was so very cool! Universal did an incredible job replicating Hogsmead and Hogwart. I was so impressed with their attention to detail and how they captured the feel of the books & movies.
I wanted to share a few pictures with you all :)
Welcome to Hogsmead - Orlando, FL, USA
{Uh yeah, it was just a bit crowded there!}
The snow covered roofs were so pretty! Too bad it's not real snow *shucks*
{It was a brisk 85° degrees in FL in October!}
The entrance to Hogwarts - how cool is that?!
In line for the ride and we walked by The Sorting Hat.
{PS: I'm not a rollercoaster kind of gal,but the ride inside of Hogwarts was badass! It was a 3D coaster and you're flying through all kinds of Harry Potter awesomeness!}
My hubbs and I with one of the conductors of the Hogwarts Express!
{He was all chubby and English and adorable!}

Butterbeer Mustache!
I got the frozen Butterbeer in the souvenir mug :) It's like a butterscotch slushy with a cream topping. Totally yummy & uber-sweet!!
Bye bye Hogsmead - til we meet again!
Well guys, hope you enjoyed my snappy little photo tour of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

PS Happy Anniversary!

ReplyDeleteSo lucky! I can't wait to go to that park myself. Might try to go when we take my niece to Disney World, but that's at least another 2-3 years I think. Pushing for 2!
