wdw day 4 hogwarts! (universal)

so. universal has two parks next to each other. you have to pay more to visit both parks in one day, but if you are going for Harry potter - do it!!! hogwarts is in one park and diagon alley in the other and the hogwarts express runs between them  (you might run into Harry and dementors on the train!). matt was tall enough to go on the castle ride and we all, minus mom enjoyed the kids coaster. I even did the big coaster (dragon challenge) and it was great. amazingly enough, even the butter beer and pumpkin juice were good - and we all are British pub food for lunch! I was quite impressed with the detail. the gringott's ride was shut down that day, but kaitlyn got to be the wizard that the wand chose in ollivander's shop! she also got chosen to go onstage at the animal actors show! matt enjoyed the minion movie and shopping for minions. it was a fun day all around, though a bit hot and a bit crowded.
