Harry Potter Comes To Life

One of my great joys this year had nothing to do with me. It was seeing the look on the face of my oldest as she walked around the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios in Orlando. She is huge into Harry Potter, and this park was so well done that she fell in love right away. Her face upon seeing Diagon Alley and then later the Hogwarts castle was something that I will never forget. I had my moments as well. One of them was seeing Diagon Alley at blue hour. I loved the way the orange lights of the shops looked against the blue sky. If you waited until the right moment when a wizard lit the light shop at the end of the alley it made the effect that much better.

The Week In Photos

Last week my week in photos post was basically a look back at my vacation. If you like Universal Studios then this might be the week for you. No sports and no birds this week though. You can see my favorite photos from last week here on my site.
