Hogwarts

And on to the main attraction... Hogwarts, it was incredible!
This was just like in the movie.
It looked huge and SO real!
This way!
It was spectacular. They used Disney castle technology, making the tops extra little to make it look bigger then they could ever possibly build it.

We went inside Hogwarts to go on a ride, and it was just as cool inside, as it was outside
I don't remember what these are called, but they held the points each house gained of lost.
The statues in here were amazing, I really felt like I was walking around Hogwarts!
Although there were no moving stairways, the pictures were "alive", talking to each other and moving around in their frames.
Here we are walking past Dumbledore's office. It's hard to capture the realistic hologram people, who moved around and talked to you. You can faintly see him up on the balcony.
The next room was so cool, I didn't think to take a picture until it was almost over. Basically, Harry, Ron, and Hermoine were up on a balcony, talking and practicing spells. The next thing we knew they made it snow! Really, it was like a blizzard in there, and you couldn't even tell where it was coming from. It was magic!
We walked by the classroom of Defense Against the Dark Arts, and saw the lesson plan for the day.
Here he is, the Sorting Hat! I got put in Gryffindor and Robb got put in Hufflepuff. :o)
It was really so pretty. They did a great job moving in that mountain.
Us by Hogwarts!
