A visit to Hogwarts

My Uncle Kenny sent me his pictures from when my son was visiting them in Florida a few weeks ago. They went to Universal Studios and I thought I'd post a few of the pictures of a new attraction they have there. They waited 2 1/2 hrs in 104 degree temperature to see this attraction. Logan said it was ok but not worth that long of a wait in that kind of heat.

Here is my cousin Maddy and Logan in front of a rather impressive castle. Hard to believe that's in Orlando. BTW, she just graduated from college. Way to go, Maddy! We're so proud of you!
Another of Logan. I don't know the name of the boy in yellow but he's best friends with my cousin Josh who's beside him.
Just looking at this roller coaster is making me dizzy! Notice the net hanging there to catch falling belongings.
Another shot of the castle.

Cool looking roof in the middle of July in 104 degrees.
Jelly bean, anyone? What flavor will you get, moldy bread, shoe leather or a perhaps a pleasant toe nail clipping?
Hagrid's house. Shall we see if he's up for a spot of tea?
Maybe we'll check this out when we go to Orlando in November. It'll be a lot cooler and the crowds won't be as bad either. I'll let you know what I think of it. Oh and I'll say hi to Dumbledore for you.

Great shots! We don't go to Universal too much because we don't ride so these were fun to see!

Very cool! The buildings look so authentic and impressive. Too bad it was so hot and busy to really enjoy it. Let us know if it's any more enjoyable in the cooler weather!

What a fun-looking place! I'm with you, though.. I'm not too fond of roller coasters either!

It looks like Logan had a blast!
