the most magical place on earth

A lot of people think Disney Word is the most magical place on Earth.
But that's just not true.
How could you get any more magical than HARRY POTTER WORLD?
It's just not possible.
I had the pleasure and privilege of spending the weekend in Orlando with some of my fellow Wyldlife leaders and it was so wonderful!

I am sorry for being so absent the past few months...basically since I've returned from Europe.
I started nursing school and that has literally taken over my life.
So one, I don't have time to write on my blog as much as I'd like,
and two, I just don't have any pictures to share.
My life just doesn't look as exciting as it did a few months ago!
But it is till exciting, just in a different way.
Nursing school is very challenging, but so rewarding and I can't wait to become a nurse.
But enough about that, because it's spring break!
(which is the reason why I got to go see HP this weekend).

It was magical and wonderful and I shared the experience with the greatest friends.
I have been a Harry Potter fan for ages.  I grew up reading the books.
But have never had the chance to go to Universal until now.
So I was pretty pumped.
Just warning for those fans who haven't been yet...it's expensive.
And you WILL want to by EVERYTHING.
I let myself splurge a little bit just because it was my first time there,
but I would have definitely probably bought one of everything if I had an unlimited budget.

So instead of souvenirs, I took a ton of pictures to bring home with me.
They are clear and colorful and so fun and I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!










first glance of Diagon Alley



there were a few tears shed..










































the wand chose Katie! (ash wood and dragon heart string)


so much excitement


casting spells around the park

























aka liquid magic


I promise their faces do not equal the mood of the trip
Those fish and chips were pretty great tho




I was literally a kid in a candy shop


Honeydukes was my fave for obvious reasons...








Hot butterbeer is literally bae









Just your average Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw trying on robes for school

 



Needless to say, I now need a movie marathon of HP 1-8 and also want to reread all the books.
Maybe after graduation.

P.S. Happy Sunday!
