Right before Thanksgiving I was lucky enough to be invited to go to Florida with my college roommate and her family. Great times were had by all and thankfully, this year (unlike last), no one's cat died, there were no blood clot scares, and all four of us were able to leave on time (i.e. my plane was not delayed for three days).
We were lucky enough to choose to visit Universal/Harry Potter land on Friday, which proved to be a very empty day, and thus were able to ride "Harry Potter's Forbidden Journey" twice in a matter of about 20 minutes, as opposed to the 175 minute wait people had to endure when we went back on Monday. It was pretty awesome though.
The entrance to Hogsmead in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter...
Hogwarts!
Below the castle is where the queue for Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey starts. This is the ride everyone comes to Universal to ride and therefore often has about 200 minute lines. It's kinda ok though, because the line takes you around the "grounds" of Hogwarts, including through the greenhouse, some hallways and a couple classrooms and stuff, it's a pretty neat queue... as queue's go that is.
You can buy butterbeer at Universal. It comes in frozen and unfrozen.
We got the frozen version, it was good, but tasted like cream soda.
Disney was pretty fun too!
