Harry Potter Camp!!

There are honestly no words for this experience. I will try my best to find them though ;) This was one of the greatest weekends of my life. Like I'd mentioned before I've been waiting to go on this trip for a really long time and it definitely was everything I'd imagined. It was nothing short of a dream come true. I know I sound like such a loser right now BUT I don't even care because I am so extremely happy we went. A HUGE thank you to Megan for going with me, there's no one else I would've rather gone with and I'm so glad I had a friend like her to go with. Here we go...

First Landing in Orlando.

This huge poster is what welcomed us. Couldn't have been better.

Day 1: Harry Land

When we first walked in...

Couldn't be any more excited at this point... First glimpse of Hogsmeade.

Hogwarts Express.

First seeing Hogwarts. Pretty sure we stood there for at least a minute in silence just admiring it and taking it all in realizing we were finally there and seeing how perfect it was.




The Three Broomsticks.

Eating our traditional English breakfast.

Waiting in line to go in Hogwarts.


Honeyduke's, the candy shop.


Butterbeer!!! Amazingly delicious!


Oh just my own bus line.

With the Hogwarts Express conductor.

Hogsmeade at night.

The castle at night. Gorgeous.

Dumbledore's Office.

The pensieve.

Sorting hat. 
(This was all while walking through the castle. They have tons of awesome stuff on the way like the Mirror of Erised, Dumbledore's office obviously, Defense Against the Dark Arts Classroom, several rooms with talking pictures, the Fat Lady, and lots of other cool things. They did a really good job with it and at the very end had a ride.)

Day 2: Universal Studios. 


Our friend Marilyn.






Day 3: Island's of Adventure and HP Camp.

Waiting to go in Ollivander's with our favorite worker Matt.

Inside Ollivander's, the wand shop. Hermione look-a-like trying to find her wand.

Our Gryffindor robes.

Our new Gryffindor Scarves.

Our wands!!

Pumpkin Juice was delicious too!

Blondie's in Islands of Adventure.

That's all folks! I can't believe it's over. It came and went so fast and I still can't believe I actually went. It was seriously amazing!! Now I can't wait for the one in California. Such an absolutely incredible vacation that I'm so glad we went on. Thanks again Meg!!!! And thank you Harry Potter Camp for making me such a happy girl :)

    1. I'm so jealous you're going!! You'll love it! Let me know if you want any tips before you go :) and you are so so sweet, thank you! I use pureology hydrate (the purple one) shampoo and conditioner. It's pricey but if you hair any hair stylists friends they can get you a good deal! Haha I also use Moroccan oil before I blow dry my hair and sometimes if I think it needs it use the shine serum from pureology once it's dry! Let me know if you try any of them out!
