Today was Universal Studios... or more accurately it was Harry Potter Day!!! Yay! I was almost as excited to see Harry Potter stuff as I was at Disney, I know, I know; Blasphemy!
65 Days Down, 0 Till Disney World.
Today we got up even earlier in order to take an Uber before the park opened. We got Carlos to drive us again. He wasn't scared away by Alan's Book of Mormon offering. Ha!
Arrived to the entrance space, which was packed full, only later did we realize that it wasn't this crowded in the park. It seemed like the Harry Potter parts of the parks were the most busy. But golly with good reason.
There was eye candy everywhere, signs and attention to details. So so neat. Went and watched a sorting, bought a wand. And drank frozen butterbeer, which I enjoyed, thought it was very good.
If you were wondering, I'm a Ravenclaw. My cousin heather who went with me is a Hufflepuff. Which was only sad in the fact that half the merchandise was all Griffindor. Lame.
The true tragedy though of an artist or crafty person, is that they constantly say stuff like, "I shouldn't buy this, I can make something on my own. Art, costumes, this curse applies all over!
With the parks, there's tons I really loved. Highlights: lunch at The Three Broomsticks. Watching the Dragon a'top Gringots, buying a wand. Seeing the castle tour. Drinking butterbeer while meeting some nice ladies from China and a older local gentlemen who was with his granddaughter at the park. I'll say, theme parks neighbour the worst or best in people. We've witnessed both at then parks.
After a long day at mainly Harry Potter, we came back to the hotel and swam, followed by a fancy dinner. Yum!
Tomorrow we're going to be doing Epcot. Should be awesome... can't wait.
