I don't have much to say, other than my awesome husband was willing and kind enough to work all day, then head over to Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure, for the purpose of photographing and souvenir shopping for the kids and I.
I went to our local AAA office and bought a park ticket. I love AAA! I had intended on buying a 2 day park to park pass, but they were running a buy 2 day, get 3rd day free offer. So for $189, Alex had a 3 day park to park ticket. Park to park tickets are useful, because it would allow him to travel between the 2 parks on the Hogwarts Express train. Wizarding World is split up between the 2 parks. Universal has Diagon Alley, and Islands of Adventure has Hogsmeade. Souvenir prices are at the end of this blog.
The entrance to Diagon Alley at Universal Studios.
Once you pass through the entrance, you see the main part of Diagon Alley.
And now for Hogsmeade.
Some general Universal Studios pictures.
A few Hard Rock Hotel pictures. The beauty of on site hotels, is that you get front of the line access to most of the rides.
And finally, the loot! I thought the prices were reasonable.
Hedwig puppet $31.95, Master Blaster whoopie cushion $13.95, Dobby doll $29.95, chocolate frog $10.95, t shirt $29.95.
Bertie's jelly beans $10.95, chocolate frog $10.95, Mauraders interactive map and wand $59.95, keychain $8.95, t shirt $29.95
Union Jack bag $21.95, Mug $24.95
Diagon Alley looks like an awesome place. We will definitely have to make a trip there in the future.
