so even though it has now taken place a full week ago, i've been so busy, i haven't posted any kinds of pictures from harry potter land on here. there will be more in the coming days, but this is enough to start. if you cannot wait, i've got almost everything uploaded to my Picasa web album, which you can find by clicking the handy-link to your left.

first thing you see when you walk into hogsmeade. i think the people filling the streets gives it a much more realistic effect, even if they're all in muggle atire.

hogwarts express at the entrance. no you cannot ride it

on the left is dervish & banges for all your robe outfitting needs, and on the right you can see the really awesome duel rollercoasters they redesigned so that they're triwizard tournament themed. one is a chinese fireball, the other is a hungarian horntail

hogwarts

buckbeak. witherwings i think can be retired now that he isn't on the run anymore. the ministry's probably forgotten about the whole thing anyway; it happened in '93.

entrance to hogwarts with their winged boars

neat sign. made for a good picture

dancer from their show. they had both beauxbatons dancers and durmstrang performers that did routines similar to the ones on the movie, but not identical. to the same music though. still really really cool.
