Our trip to Orlando Florida was sensational. We spend 4 days visiting "Islands Of Adventure" with the Harry Potter site and Universal Studios with all of its Hollywood magic.
I was so excited to see the Hogsmeade postmark in my mailbox this morning! I applied to the Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I figured since we will be so close with our Orlando trip that I might as well apply.
First stop, Ollivanders to purchase a wand! I selected the same wand as Harry Potter of course! Complete with the Phoenix tail. Then Breakfast at The Three Broomsticks. We ate 3 meals at this restaurant. Two breakfast's and a dinner.
In the novels the Three Broomsticks is a well known inn and pub located on High Street in the village of Hogsmeade. It is known for its delicious butterbeer and its beautiful owner Madam Rosmerta, who lives above the pub. The Three Broomsticks is a favored destination among Hogwarts students and staff.
Croissants, pancakes and bacon!
Hogwarts at night is spectacular!
Professor Dumbledore welcomed us from his office podium.
Just one of the many street presentations throughout the day and evening.
Hogshead pub. Time for a beer. The Hog's Head is another pub, which often attracts a more disreputable clientele than the Three Broomsticks, and many of the customers hide their faces out of a desire not to be recognized.
The hanging sign on the front of the pub has a severed boar's head, leaking blood onto the white cloth around it.
A giant hogshead hangs over the bar in Hogshead pub.
Slightly wasted, 10 points for Gryffindor.
