    Trip Report Turning 30 - A two week birthday celebration!

    We made our way out into the London area. The shrunken head on the Knight Bus actually talks and interacts with you. How cool is that! At this point, the rain had still held off, and we decided it was time to explore other parts of the park. First stop, Men In Black. Surprisingly, this...

    Trip Report Turning 30 - A two week birthday celebration!

    Not sure if you can tell by the pictures, but the sky was turning pretty grey, and we were feeling sprinkles here and there. I was in LOVE with this area. The design was magnificent. The stage for the Tales of Beedle the Bard was in this area, and we were able to catch part of the show. It...

    Day 2 continued... When we got off the ride, it was about 10am. This guy is pretty handsome. We took our time walking around and really taking it all in. We did make sure to try the Butterbeer ice cream. We considered it our late breakfast. Ice cream counts for breakfast when you're on...

    We were fortunate to have some slow times this trip. Not always. Some days were insane. But this day was great. Thanks for following!

    Trip Report Turning 30 - A two week birthday celebration!

    The details of Gringotts Bank... amazing. Everything looked so real and true to the movie. I loved everything about the line queue. The ride was just ok, in my opinion. I think I still prefer the Forbidden Journey over at Islands of Adventure. But it was worth it just to...

    Finally made it to Escape From Gringotts! And the wait was posted at 20 minutes! Compared to the 2+ hour waits the day before, it was like we had died and gone to Heaven! We had to put our stuff in a locker, so the pictures from inside are from Katie's phone.

    Day Two Continued.. Making our way to Gringotts' Bank. Snapping pictures along the way. Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes! This guy was adorable. He was writing in his notepad, and posed when I went to take a picture. I spy the Daily Prophet! I also spy a dragon who doesn't look very happy...

    Trip Report Turning 30 - A two week birthday celebration!

    Making our way through Universal Studios The older couple walking were just the cutest. We saw them periodically throughout the day and they were always walking with their hands behind their backs. As you can see, the park was pretty dead so far. This worked out well for us. As we...

    Day 2 - More Universal Fun! Katie and I were up and out of the room by 8:30. Our plan was to get to the Escape from Gringotts ride as soon as possible before the line got insane. Our walk from the hotel to the Universal Citywalk was only about 10 minutes and was pretty pleasant. I've...

    Thanks!! It definitely had the longest waits out of every attraction at Universal. All.Day.Long. lol. Just going through the bank part made it worth it for me, though. So awesome. Thanks for following!

    I wasn't always a fan of Universal, but all the Harry Potter stuff always makes it worth the trip over there for me. Thanks for following along!

    Trip Report Turning 30 - A two week birthday celebration!

    Day one continued... So when I left off, we were boarding the Hogwarts Express for Hogsmeade. This is one of my favorite addition to the parks. It makes the hop to Islands of Adventure so much easier! The only annoying part was one couple that was placed with us in our cabin. They were...

    Katie took the picture below. I am not a fan of dolls. My mom used to collect porcelain dolls for me when I was younger and they thoroughly creeped me out. I was convinced that they came to life at night. I'm still not entirely convinced that they don't. So, since we've been back, Katie likes to...

    Day one continued.... Everyone was standing around waiting for the dragon breathe its fire. So, we followed suit. At first... After waiting for a bit, we noticed that no one knew exactly when this fire breathing would take place. No one knew how long it had been since the last occurrence...

    Day One - continued.. I will apologize in advance. My pictures aren't necessarily consistent. One minute, I'd be snapping away, and the next I'd forget I had a camera with me. But even still, I managed to take over 3,000 pictures! Still sorting through them all. Anyway, moving on.... Our...
