Wizarding World of Harry Potter

For the record, I'm not even that into Harry Potter, but this place ruled. We'll start with a few shots of Hogsmead (if I get the names wrong I apologize) and the shops:







Honeydukes







Zonko's which had a 'Puking Pastilles' in the front which moved and was impossible to photograph



Gladrags, which you couldn't go into but the stuff in the windows moved around (including a tape measure cat)



So much detail even went into the gift shops:









The town at night was even more magical:





We spent a while just looking into shop (real and fake) windows and watching things move and work.









And we watched a little performance by characters from the other schools.





And finally the ride itself. Even waiting in line is pretty awesome because you're basically going through the school :D



The portraits move and talk :D





It's impossible to really capture the inside well because there's so much going on...



I couldn't get anything good of Dumbledore in his office giving a speech, but here is the 'Defense Against the Dark Arts' classroom, where Harry, Ron, and Hermione show up to tell you what's going on...



And make it snow!





The fat lady who we got stuck by a little too long, but still the line was moving



The sorting hat



As you get on the ride you're in a hall of mirrors with dozens of candles suspended over your head, which I could not adequately capture.



Basically it was all completely awesome
