Day 6: Universal Studios

We left Disney for our last day to visit Universal Studios.

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter!!!

One word: Amazing.

I'd say they hit the nail on the head. We walked through Hogwarts
and the town of Hogsmead. That's not a backdrop, folks.

Mandrakes screaming in the windows, Moaning Myrtle is in the bathroom, 30 minute lines for Butterbeer...

We ate lunch at the Three Broomsticks.

The Butterbeer was goo-ood.

Cheers!

We saw the Hogwarts Choir perform

and Anna successfully begged her Daddy for a Hedwig puppet.

What's a visit to Hogsmead without Every Flavour Beans and a chocolate frog?



Of course, Universal is more than just Harry Potter world. We spent a lot of time in Suessland, and the rides at Universal were awesome!


Get it? Jeremy's so clever. We found out if Isaac wants a Thing 5 shirt, we have to special order it.







The Cat in the Hat was friendly.

The Grinch was, well, grinchy.
