I remember my last trip there... it was right during the opening of Potterworld! (as me and my friends affectionately call it. XP) I got to go and it was amazing, though it was stuffed to high heavens as you'd think. I didn't get to do the whole wand experience, but maybe some day...
ANYWAYS, I hope you have an even awesome-er time then I did!!!!
ohhhhh I'm so excited! what kinds of things did you do at the Potterworld?
Well, the best part was the village, by far. They had a ton of shops, like the candy shop and the prank shop... Right now I'm drawing a blank on the shop names. XP
If you've ever been to Universal before, though, you'll be a little disappointed about the rides. They basically just changed the three rides in the area to be Harry Potter themed. I hadn't been there before, but my boyfriend used to be crazy about Dueling Dragons. Now the only difference, according to him, is the awesome animation on the ceiling of the dragon. The hippogriff kiddie ride used to be a unicorn kiddie ride, they just changed the area around it and the style of the train to look like a hippogriff. You did get to see Buckbeak, which I thought was awesome.
Well, I hadn't been there since I was a little kid, so I was still very excited about those rides. For the castle ride... If you have arachnophobia, don't even get on it. Go through the line, because going through the castle is the most amazing thing. But the ride mainly brings up The Chamber of Secrets, where they go into the forbidden forest, and the Deathly Hallows where the spiders come out and attack. My boyfriend was whimpering by the end, as he's deathly afraid of spiders.
Still, overall, I had an awesome time, and I hope you do too, and if you hate spiders that ride didn't/won't affect you too badly!
