Are there any Harry Potter fans here besides me?

I am so excited about the new theme park they are building in Orlando, Florida.  I am sure no one will be able to get near it the first year it opens but it will be such fun!!!

Check it out:  The Wizarding World of Harry Potter

How nice, I've been to Epcot and Disneyworld four times, it was only the last time there that Universal Studio's had just opened...Harry Potter huh..well,why not, ya know...keeps reminding me of my "uncle Walt"..long gone now. My old neighbor growing up as an kid married an man that designed an exhibit in Epicot..we went one time to see that as they moved it over there..out of Disneyland in California..I've been to it also. Not many people know, but those large street parade like "puppets" for the night time parade/fireworks were built here in Portland, Oregon.

Sorry, not a Potter fan myself, but my husband loves it, and right as I type this post he is reading The Sorcerer's Stone, having read the last book first and going backwards until he's reached the first.

Yep...I'm an addict. As a matter of fact, as I type this I am listening (for the umpteenth time) the Deathly Hallows on my computer...read by Jim Dale.

Has anyone here purchased the collector's edition of The Tales Of Beedle The Bard? I managed two from Amazon in their first shipment.

Cheers,

 Bob

My cousin took the boys and myself to Lacock Abbey on one of our trips. We also got a personal tour of Christchurch College, Oxford, where some scenes were filmed, so my boys should be all Pottered out.
