The excitement in the air on Tuesday morning as we made our way toward the Wizarding World of Harry Potter was electric. :) It was everything we hoped for and more. Beautiful. Authentic. Brilliant! Tuesday was Aly's birthday. She was excited to be going to Hogwarts on her 11th birthday just like Harry, Ron, and Hermione in the books.

The wand chooses the wizard. Aly was chosen for the wand choosing ceremony inside Olivander's. Her wand: Holly, 11 inches, unicorn tail hair core.
Butterbeer. Oh! My! I wanted to bring it home with me. Think cream soda but better with more vanilla and caramel and this great foamy, sweet top. Oh! My! Cold or Frozen. Um, I had...a lot :)
Aly dressed as close as she could get to Hermione for the park. She had a sweater vest but it was way too hot and I vetoed it.
Skyeler dressed as Luna. Yes, she spent half the day in the park like this, minus the Spectrespecs. :) She bought Luna's wand to complete the outfit.
Aly and her souvenirs from our first day. Her wand, a pygmy puff, Spectrespecs, and Crookshanks.
