As some of you may know, when we finished hiking we went on a cruise. One of the stops was at Cape Canaveral in Florida. Did we go to the Kennedy Space Center? Why would you even suggest that? We went to Hogsmeade instead!
Hogsmeade was great and we were lucky that it wasn't to crowded. And let's be clear. It felt crowded walking around but we hardly had to wait for any of the rides. Most of the ride "wait" time was actually us walking to through the line barriers.
The line through Hogwarts was pretty awesome. The line was like a tour through the school and in lots of rooms there were little scenes with the actual actors from Harry Potter setting the story for you. It was gorgeous! It looked like you were really walking through the castle. In the halls where there was no "action" they had the portraits that moved/talked. And nothing looked tacky. It was all incredible! I kept wishing Bo Keller (my younger brother and huge HP fan) could be there with us! The ride itself was also pretty amazing. It was a moving ride but with the use of 3D animation to make it seem like you were moving at great speed. It was like a Motion Oddyssey Movie on crack. I was amazed at how far the technology has come. Hogwarts' wasn't the only ride like this, there were many in the park and I was impressed with them all! Overall, a great (but expensive) day.
