Earlier this month, I spent a wonderful week in Florida with my two kids. The highlight for us was – absolutely – enjoying the amazing Harry Potter attractions at Universal in Orlando. I thought y’all would appreciate seeing the photo highlights of our visit to Hogsmeade, Hogwarts, and Diagon Alley!

My wand. Yes, I have a wand. It chose me.

Being in Harry Potter heaven was sheer joy for the three of us… here’s a little taste:
