I am obsessed with Harry Potter. I love him. Knowing that I am of an excitable nature, then, imagine my reaction when I was informed that the 20-acre ‘immersive’ Harry Potter theme park called ‘the Wizarding World’ will be opening this spring at Universal Studios in Orlando. Above is a virtual tour of the park– which looks, needless to say, freaking sweet.
Budgeted at around $200,000,000 dollars, the Wizarding World will be complete with a Diagon Alley/Hogsmede amalgam — home to Olivander’s, Zonko’s joke shop, and Honeydukes candy store, the Three Broomsticks (which will serve butterbeer. Actually.) and, of course, the iconic Hogwarts castle. Visitors will be about to shop, eat, and enjoy rides inspired by Hippogriff flight and the tasks of Triwizard Tournament. I wonder if there will be a giant chess board….

Oh em gee. Spring break here I come.
