Harry Potter

I took the tour of the new Harry Potter "land" at Universal Studios. I'm not a huge Harry Potter fan, but this was pretty cool. I loved the dragon challenge where you could ride a "dragon" and go through scenes from the movie. The town of Hogsmeade was really quaint and set up like the book described. It had the shops and everything. It even included owls in the rafters just like Hedwig. You had the ability to stop by and taste butterbeer(in the books and movies) and some of the "delicacies" mentioned in the books. You can buy a wand that's a replica of those in the movie. I personally think the wand would be the coolest thing to buy. You can go into Hogwarts and explore where wizards get their education. Flight of the Hippogriff you can interact with Hagrid as he teaches you how to approach one of these mythical creatures. You then board a "training flight" (roller coaster) and swoop past Hagrid's hut. Even not being much of a Harry Potter fan, I have to admit, I'm very intrigued and curious about this new attraction and would love to go and see it.
