The Wizarding World of Harry Potter Photo Diary Part Two.

Didn't think I was finished with my photo diary now, did you?  Didn't think so. :)  Soooo, the next thing we did was we got on the Hogwarts Express en route to Diagon Alley!!  It was pretty cool because being on the train really did feel like Harry Potter and the gang were there cos their shadows could be seen on the right and we could hear their voices too.  It was pretty cool and I nearly died of excitement because everything was just awesome (yes, like the song)!!!!

Diagon Alley was just how I saw it in the movies, if not cooler, because it felt really magical and I couldn't be anymore thankful.  Now I wish I could work there, hopefully when I'm bored with my life at some point, I might just try and apply.  But for now, I have to go and look for a job back home.

It was soooo cool when we got to see King's Cross because my sister told me that those sites were new so I'm glad my brother and I insisted on going to Orlando even if it was pricey, because everything I spent for that trip was definitely worth every penny!!!  If you do go there during the summer though, remember to put on sunblock because it can go up to 100+°F.  Anyway, I hope you like the photos.  Ciaooo!

 

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter Photo Diary.

We could've been complete but our dad wasn't able to make it cos of work back home.  Anyway, this is my mom and my siblings.

Oh yes!  This book moves!   

The Hogwarts castle was simply breathtaking and everything just felt surreal.  It really was just like in the movies where an unknown vibe coming from every direction was simply screaming "Brace yourselves for the adventure of a lifetime!"  We entered through Hogsmeade and then later found our way to Hogwarts where we got on the ride called "Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey" which was pretty fun considering we were in Harry Potter's world.  I'm unable to explain the ride with words though, but it was awesome!!!!  

Afterwards, we went around the shops only to find muggles and more muggles, speaking of which there were a whole lot of us in this part of the park than anywhere else which was insane because Universal Studios is huge!  Of course there were wizards and witches doing skits and marching around as well.  After all, it is called the wizarding world.

Everything was just fascinating!  I felt like Harry Potter experiencing everything for the first time, except of course, he was a real wizard.  We got our first Butterbeer right after the ride and it tasted like heaven!  And after that, we were hungry so we had lunch at The Three Broomsticks!  The food was delish, the ambience was great what with Harry Potter soundtracks playing in the background - everything was just awesome and there was nothing more I could ask for!!  My dream of going there came true and I'm just really thankful for this opportunity and experience for God made it possible. :)

Universal Studios Orlando!

 The Hulk: the first roller coaster we rode on for the day. It was AWE-SOME!!!!

 We rode on this one too!  It was a splash thingy and it felt good!

Soooo here I am once again, trying to update you all with a new post.  And as promised, this post will be all about my adventures in Orlando, at Universal Studios to be specific.

It has always been my dream to visit Universal Studios in Orlando, mainly because of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, which is totally shallow of me, but I know now that I'm not the only one as my sister told me that she and her friend pretty much went there for Harry Potter too.

Now I am not a big fan of roller coasters or anything of the sort which is ironic because I love amusement parks and there's just so much to see.  But when our sister pushed us to ride the Hulk, I was reluctant to do so.  You should know that I went for it anyway and it felt good!  Ah yes!  That adrenaline rush made me feel a little bit braver for a second!  It was pretty awesome and I remember screaming so much but asked "that was it?" when it ended.  I looked as though I was in so much pain when our photo on the screen came out and we all just laughed about how we looked.  I survived my first roller coaster ride for the day but I knew that there were more to come!

The next one we rode was the Spiderman, which was a lot different than the first ride because it had 3D effects and stuff.  We walked around a lot under the scorching sun which was fine until noon came.  That's when we kept going in to the shops to hide from Mr. Sun or got on rides that had something to do with water. :D

Our next destination was of course none other than the Wizarding World of Harry Potter which I'll be blogging about in my next post so stay tuned! :)
