Rainy Afternoon

It's been awhile since I just took some pictures and today's rainshower seemed like a good opportunity...

The Happiest Place on Earth


And it's not Disney. Now, Disney World holds a place near and dear to my heart, but an a scale of one to awesome, it's been ousted, at least for this summer. My Number Two rated trip of the summer (because, really, you can't out-do Italy.) is...


  The Wizarding World Of Harry Potter in Universal's Island of Adventure. Be jealous- I have been to Hogwarts. I have had both Pumpkin Juice and Butterbeer (which is amazing, by the way).

 I have been to Honeydukes, Zonko's, Dervish and Bangs, and Olivanders. 


I have eaten at The Three Broomsticks

And I must say, I was more or less in full on geek mode, but so was pretty much everyone else there, so it was ok. =) 






Also, the new ride, The Forbidden Journey, is awesome. 
If you ever get the chance, I highly recommend visiting at least once. It's straight out of the books.
