@Kelly Buck Kelly Buck: I like everything you just said! I'm cheap as all get out, but I'd pay to stay in a hotel like this in a second! Can't believe it's not done already.
Kelly Buck that's too much of a big budget to spend for people who may not be able to afford it, people are there to go to universal so live at Hogwarts.
Hello, random internet commentor. Whoever you are, I hope now, a year later, your finances are faring better. I too have been that low, and even lower. The pain of having no money in your account is an awful one, for sure.
My nephew was 3 when we were there and no way could we afford to pay $60 on a wand for him. Instead we found a stick and had him stand next to the people at the interactive windows. He assumed he was the one performing the magic! Parents with small children groaned when they realized they could have gotten away with the same thing! Oh and the train was awesome!
You can often find wands hidden at the parks. Potter fans often make Harry Potter themed things and hide them in the park, and wipe post a tip about it on the public Facebook page. I found st least 3 wands this way
$60 is a bit ridiculous. I thought they would cost about $40-50. Also, buy the robes from the shops that are a block or two down the street from Universal. The prices are muuuuch lower.
Another note about the butterbeer: if you are an annual passholder you can get a discount on the butterbeer inside the Three Broomsticks or the Leaky Cauldron but not at the stands outside!
Yeah... we had in Three Broomsticks... i wish my editing skill is just like him... my vlog of our tour there was funny... ha ha ha... though our experience was awesome... you can watch my vlog too... but this is way better... he he he they are expert!
Margaret Beaver I don’t recall several lines of people attempting to cast the same spell in the exact same spot in any of the movies. We got our daughter an interactive wand, and I was like... “no way!” I would have said “so much for being off peak” but then they closed.
Single rider line! I went on forbidden journey 13 times in 1 day using it. Exit thru the gift shop, cut thru the lockers and jump back on within minutes
The time of year also matters but you want to avoid September because it's hurricane season. After Xmas and most of January are great times to avoid crowds BUT beware of South American/Brit tourists. There is no Harry Potter World in the UK or Ireland. I went last January and although the crowds were light the buses to the parks were packed with Brits, Scots and Irish. Then, later in the week, the South Americans POURED into the parks because mid to late January is considered spring break in their countries. The Brazilians came in such huge numbers that they needed two buses to bring in a single tour group! And very few of them were going to Disney World. A majority of them flocked to Universal when they arrived.
@@Professionallysillyart A bit of clarification: Clarissa R was saying that there are a few non-Universal hotels that will allow early entry. Cabana Bay is owned by Universal so they automatically give all their guests early entry. So, what was your opinion of CB? I loved the 1950s feel and the decor although it's not going to appeal to everyone. I did get the refill mug and it was nice that the lazy river and pools were heated. It was FREEZING cold when I went. Sadly for kids who came to see Volcano Bay, it was closed due to the cold weather. Although it was a long walk to the entrance from my room, I would rate it an easy four stars (1 star - TERRIBLE, 5 stars - awesome, 4 great and would still recommend).
I want to go there soooooo bad... I have researched the website and knew about the early admission! I think is my favourite tip that I will take, that way less people will see me cry when I actually enter diagon alley.. 😅
Prime pass holder here: after being in line for Hagrids Motorbike for 30min, there was a "slight delay"...for an hour. So we got out of the ride after the park had already closed. Hogsmeade was EMPTY. Like no one. And since there was another maybe 30min of people in line the park employees dont make you leave just yet so you can get great nighttime photo ops in hogsmeade. Especially fun during winter solstice and it gets dark early
I just went- the downside is that you have to wear a mask ALL day. There are some places where you can take off your mask and rest. The plus side is virtual lines, and almost all the rides are walk ons.
The ticket purchase tip was excellent as well as the early access hour. Miss Wizarding World has fantastic photos on her page that she attributes to getting in early. Next time I get to go I definitely have to try and get in early if only for the photos! Also, what a kick to see vids Pre Covid!
Omg, this is so helpful. I'm glad that you guys emphasize maximizing the use of the early admission because for someone who's never been there, we might not think about the crowds. I really liked the tip about identifying which wands are the interactive wands with the gold labels so that we can quickly pick that out and get on with the day. Oh, and also the tip about pre-buying tickets.
I really want to visit this amazing place one day! If I go there, I will stay there for a week))) For children, this place is probably a fairy tale in reality!!!
When two icons meet! Thank you for the tips! I’m addicted to in-world items straight out of the books. Thought I’d only have to contend with robes and Honeydukes, but Weasleys Wizard Wheezes is going to cripple me xD
OMG! MissWizardingWorld! She's my favorite Instagrammer and you're my favorite RUclipsr! This is sweet! We're going next year for Disney's 50th but we're staying with Universal for the first time; so we'll get the early park access and I'm so excited.
I've been to the wizarding world at universal twice. The first time i had access to both parks and the second time i did single parks. It is very much worth it, like she said, to be able to transition from one park to the other in one day. You get the full experience and just use your following returning days to go back and return to your favorite spots/rides.
I wish you made this video 2 months ago. I live in Australia so when I went we didn’t know much about theme parks, but the wizarding world but it was the best place on earth. I wish you could’ve made this video sooner though. Keep up the great work. Love your vids.😁 Keep Collecting...
I wish I could love this video. I absolutely adore the two of you! Megan is such a sweetheart! It was so nice getting to see you guys at the park! Can't wait until you guys are in town again! These are great tips! The one about the hogs head...I'm a little surprised that more people don't know about it! That's always where we get our butterbeer in Hogsmeade!
I will likely never get to visit due to living in Australia and being scared to fly. But a school project required me to study a place is travel and what I would do and white a diary of my trip. Your videos have be soo helpful
I actually got up at around the early park hours, but my Christmas gift was to go here to the first time I left at nine and went to olivandors first thing.
I always have my outfits set up and pack everything thats not charging. But my friends or family are usually the ones i have to wait for. Thanks for the tips!
I'm going next summer with my mom as a high school graduation present. I have read all the books multiple time and watched all the movies many times and I can not wait to go.
Early entry is the best! We would get up early, stay till 2, go back to the hotel take a nap or go swimming then get ready for nighttime at the park especially the wizard in world. I will tell you that the 23.99 quick service meal plan is the way to go!!
I'm visiting the WWOHP at Universal Orlando in July, and these tips are gonna be so helpful for me! I'm watching the videos on repeat! Thank you for being so informative. Love your videos and Keep Collecting :)
I'm going for my 16th birthday and your videos helped me so much to know what to get (early entry and staying on site) and just a tour of the park and tips! I am so excited to go thanks for the tips!
I know I’m late but the tip about annual pass being cheaper than normal tickets is totally true! I stayed for like 11 days once (because why not) and the seasonal annual pass was 100% cheaper plus other benefits too 👍🏻
Loved filming around Harry Potter world, there are so many things you miss on your first visit. Will definitely add these to things to film next time 🙌
i only recently became a harry potter fan, idk why i never became interested in it sooner, but i hope to go to harry potter world for my 16th birthday in november. i love how they play the music from the movies in the park, i think i’ll cry
Loved this video...I am really liking the idea of you meeting up with other Harry Potter RUclipsrs/Instagrammers and making videos with them together. Awesome stuff. Cheers
im going to add my own tip, if you are willing to spend the money and/or are only going for a day, then i think that the express passes are worth it! especially if you want to spend time in the other areas of the park! when i went a couple years ago i was obsessed with the harry potter rides and i did the hogwarts one 17 times in two days! i dont recommend just doing this but this gives you an idea of how fast you can get through the rides with a express pass
Also, CHECK THE FACEBOOK PAGE. In Universal/Islands of Adventure in Orlando people often hide crafts they made. Wands, potions, ornaments, etc.. they will leave a photo on the Facebook page of where the item is "generally" hidden. I've found 3 wands, 2 necklaces, and 1 ornament
you guys should’ve gone to the hidden spell locations! super fun. I have a lot of tips too I’ve been there a lot! I might make a video next time I go! loved it tho! helps me not cry given quarantine
I have 4 beautiful days at wizarding world coming up in November 😍 My favorite/most helpful tip was prepurchasing the swag. I turned plain white tennis shoes into Slytherin/death eater themed shoes.
So many good tips - simple planning of what rides and meals, also the app with wait times, cheaper online tix who knew!? - super helpful - crowded meal times - good job 🐉!!
THANK YOU FOR INSPIRING ME TO READ AND COLLECT BOOKS. I didn't really read the Harry Potter books growing up and didn't own any except for a volume of Goblet of Fire in Korean. In the last few years, I have gradually collected Harry Potter books; 6 out of 7 all US EDITION hardcovers from my local Half-Price Books store. I'm a slow reader and I'm currently reading Half-Blood Prince. I can't find the US hardcover of Sorcerer's Stone and I missed my chance at my local library's book sale. (Oh well.) I want to get a copy of Philosopher's Stone Hufflepuff house edition. I also began collecting the collector's editions of the Chronicles of Narnia series. KEEP COLLECTING!
Might be a wierd question but since you are a collector you might know, I see everybody bying official replicas og horcroaxes, wands, ect, but do you know if you can by a official replica of the phiosopher’s stone?😄
You don't have to just use muggle plastic , you can get it exchanged at the Gringott's (dyslexia, sorry if I spelt that wrong) Money Exchange; which is next to Gringott's Bank.
I’m so excited to see this!! My trip to Orlando is in july and I’m going to the wizarding world of Harry Potter as well😍♥️ this video helped me a lot 🙌🏻 I seriously can’t wait till I go there in july
I would miss all of the christmases for the rest of my life to go here. My mom and dad dont have enough money and I dont live anywhere near here so I will never be able to go here, so I watch other people go and watch them enjoy it. It makes me feel atleast a little bit excited that I can see all the stuff that's there
I'm saving my money for more wands when I go back. When I went in 2015, I got Hermione Granger's interactive wand, which I still have, but I was wanting to get another. I want to get a character AND non-character wand next time I go back. They're pretty expensive and my mom will probably make me pay for at least one so I'm saving my money. These tips were definitely helpful btw
Wizard here! You don’t have to use muggle plastic to pay around the park. Gringots you can exchange your muggle money for wizard money which can be used at any store in and out of the wizarding world
Muggle plastic !!! I love when people use my go to time killer line! Haha “are we paying with muggle paper or plastic today?” See you next time peter!! 🤩
Ahaha what a good idea! How’s the weather down there? Probably getting pretty hot 😉 😂 I’m trying my very best to move down to Florida and get a job in Universal next year, looks like great fun!
I love your videos. FINALLY getting to go! T minus 30 days! I have waited 11 years for this. I wanted my son to be old enough to enjoy it. So we’re going for his 8th grade graduation. We had even had to buy new perfectly round eye glasses. 😂
Can’t wait going for my birthday, have a shirt that says “I solemnly Swear that it is my birthday” in hope I’ll get selected for the Olivanders Wand Experience.
Before visiting Universal Studios Florida several times, I literally no interest in Harry Potter. I still rode all of the rides, but didn't even bother snapping any photos of the wizarding world during my 2015 visit. The rides were fun and neat, but I wasn't really into the lore. After a few more visits, and getting to ride the new rides Escape from Gringotts and the newest ride, Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure, my curiosity began to be more piqued, so two years ago, I started listing to the audiobooks and then later the movies. This has since turned me into a fan of the series. I attribute Universal's attention to detail and the immersiveness of the wizarding world they created to finally bringing me there.
this might just be one of my favourite videos of yours Peter, seeing Megan live in action at the wizarding world was super fun as well! can't wait for your next amazing video:)
If I remember correctly, 3 days Park2Park is now more expensive than an annual pass. I’m only going 1 day, but with 2 days I would’ve got the difference already (I thought 50-100 dollars), with the discount on merchandise, food and extra tickets.
Not sure if this has already been said, but you can go to the bank in diagon alley and exchange muggle money for wizarding money to use in the HP sections of the parks.
Yes. I avoid mentioning this because they don't provide you with wizarding coins (which is real wizarding money). It's just a gift certificate basically.
The early admission isn’t always for the hotel people or when you pay for it. I went to universal couple years ago not knowing they had early admission passes and they just let my family and I in during early admissions
Very good idea to make this kind of videos!!! it may help many people to save money and time, and also have a greater time at The Wizarding World Of Harry Potter!! Greetings from Argentina, and congrats for hiting 100k subs!!
I went on a Tuesday morning in October the park wasn’t overly crowded it was actually really nice all day. So maybe during the week it’s less crowded too.
Normally Parks are less crowded in the week when there are no holidays etc. going on (unless its probably Disney) and you need luck with the weather. That are some of the first tipps n tricks that every themepark crazy person will give you. For me its iam going to Parks cause i want to have fun on some rides and not standing in line for 2h. Everything over 30min wait is a complete wasted time for me.
loved the video! A Harry Potter video that I would enjoy would be “How to get the most out of The Wizarding World”. So basically just how to do everything at the Wizarding World in just one day.
One, I've already been doing. Planning for the day, I finally get to go. And YES, part of that is budgeting for the stuff I want, using Peter's videos. :) What better way, then advice from a fellow Slytherin.
Me too..guess I'm gonna have to wait for the covid vaccine to be made if that ever happens😭, I hope we both get to go. Upside we have awhile to save up for it.
@@jennifermurray4387 I think its better to take the correct vitamins and minerals and natural boosters for the immune system and remove yourself away from this covid19 vaccine nonsense, unless you are a direct target for this super bug and you are in poor health, please snap out of the brainwashing and fear mongering created by the media and social networks, the psychology is extremely unhealthy and dangerous. Wishing you well and hope you get to go 😊🤗
The lines can be long in the Harry Potter areas. But, Universal has done a wonderful job making the wait in line interesting. There is so much to look at when in line for the rides.
I would definitely recommend it! When I got into the park I stood in the lines for the rides as it was still early and I didnt have to wait too long. I then made use of the Express Pass later on in the day when the lines were super long. This made the day less stressful, I was less grumpy, and I basically got to go on the rides twice with minimal waiting.
Nope, I feel like Florida has way more 😟 (no train ride and I didn't see a lot of the stores Peter has featured, Peter probably has a more thorough description of what's different I'm sure)
Which tip did you find most helpful?
The Potter Collector to go early!
The early morning tip! Are there any restrictions on what type of backpack you can take into the park? ⚡✨
Definitely early park entry! Worth it for those empty pictures! I’ll have to get a hotel on site too.
"research! plan! prioritize!" tip, the universal app es great
Nope! :)
When is Universal and JK Rowling going to get serious and open a hotel themed on the dorms? That would be GREAT!
Purselmer aH
Omg I can't imagine that. i live in Indonesia and if that's thing were exists I'll probably go asap
@Kelly Buck Kelly Buck: I like everything you just said! I'm cheap as all get out, but I'd pay to stay in a hotel like this in a second! Can't believe it's not done already.
Kelly Buck that's too much of a big budget to spend for people who may not be able to afford it, people are there to go to universal so live at Hogwarts.
@@hermionehamilton2300 I go to Universal to pretend I live in Hogsmeade, lol.
step one: have more than a total of $4.21 in your bank account
banana phone
Oh shoot I have $4.20-
lol
Hello, random internet commentor. Whoever you are, I hope now, a year later, your finances are faring better. I too have been that low, and even lower. The pain of having no money in your account is an awful one, for sure.
My nephew was 3 when we were there and no way could we afford to pay $60 on a wand for him. Instead we found a stick and had him stand next to the people at the interactive windows. He assumed he was the one performing the magic! Parents with small children groaned when they realized they could have gotten away with the same thing! Oh and the train was awesome!
That was a smart idea! The wands are definitely on the expensive side.
Sure they did, did everybody start clapping too?
Omar Munoz *rolls eyes* Don’t bring that here, man.
You can often find wands hidden at the parks. Potter fans often make Harry Potter themed things and hide them in the park, and wipe post a tip about it on the public Facebook page. I found st least 3 wands this way
$60 is a bit ridiculous. I thought they would cost about $40-50. Also, buy the robes from the shops that are a block or two down the street from Universal. The prices are muuuuch lower.
Another note about the butterbeer: if you are an annual passholder you can get a discount on the butterbeer inside the Three Broomsticks or the Leaky Cauldron but not at the stands outside!
Very true.
I didn't know this thanks
Yeah... we had in Three Broomsticks... i wish my editing skill is just like him... my vlog of our tour there was funny... ha ha ha... though our experience was awesome... you can watch my vlog too... but this is way better... he he he they are expert!
Is it just me, or does the early access make it seem more like a movie set than the actual Wizarding World?
Kelsey Valeska Absolutely!!!
Margaret Beaver I don’t recall several lines of people attempting to cast the same spell in the exact same spot in any of the movies. We got our daughter an interactive wand, and I was like... “no way!” I would have said “so much for being off peak” but then they closed.
Single rider line! I went on forbidden journey 13 times in 1 day using it. Exit thru the gift shop, cut thru the lockers and jump back on within minutes
My cousins and I do that for every theme park ... and sometimes they need 2 riders so you might end up sitting next to your companion .
Genius
I didn’t know it was so empty before it opens for regular hours. I will definitely try to get early admission. Great tips!
The time of year also matters but you want to avoid September because it's hurricane season. After Xmas and most of January are great times to avoid crowds BUT beware of South American/Brit tourists.

You can also get early admission by staying at a Universal Partner hotel which are mostly budget hotels that are not on Universal property.
Yes I am staying at a comfort inn and got early admission
a g how did you find out if your hotel was a part of that?
Wow this is so good to know, thanks so much!!

Same
Relatable
I hope you make a video about the top 7(?) items you have to buy/get at the wizarding world! So we would know which ones is worth to buy on a budget!

I can't imagine having the privilege to be able to go so often to this amazing place to have an 'usually' (3:33).
It is definitely something I don't take for granted. But annual passes help for sure... and cost the same as 3 days at the theme park.
I really want to visit this amazing place one day!
If I go there, I will stay there for a week)))
For children, this place is probably a fairy tale in reality!!!

It makes me feel atleast a little bit excited that I can see all the stuff that's there
Love this! I’m so excited when I get to go next year! I really love your channel, very organized and has a lot of info!!!
I'm saving my money for more wands when I go back. When I went in 2015, I got Hermione Granger's interactive wand, which I still have, but I was wanting to get another. I want to get a character AND non-character wand next time I go back. They're pretty expensive and my mom will probably make me pay for at least one so I'm saving my money. These tips were definitely helpful btw
Wish I could visit there someday... ❤️from the Philippines 🇵🇭
I hope you can!
Me Too! Love this place! I'm also from Philippines
Wizard here! You don’t have to use muggle plastic to pay around the park. Gringots you can exchange your muggle money for wizard money which can be used at any store in and out of the wizarding world
I read this as "7 Tips to get out of the wizarding world of Harry potter"
Muggle plastic !!! I love when people use my go to time killer line! Haha “are we paying with muggle paper or plastic today?” See you next time peter!! 🤩
Ahaha what a good idea! How’s the weather down there? Probably getting pretty hot 😉 😂
I’m trying my very best to move down to Florida and get a job in Universal next year, looks like great fun!
I love your videos. FINALLY getting to go! T minus 30 days! I have waited 11 years for this. I wanted my son to be old enough to enjoy it. So we’re going for his 8th grade graduation. We had even had to buy new perfectly round eye glasses. 😂
Have an amazing time!
I am making Amortentia! Took a break from filming for my channel just to come watch this that's how much I love this channel!
Anyway she is super gorgeous and the early tip was my favourite mostly because I can never seem to make it early no matter how hard I try,
They have front of the park pick up if your not staying might be a small charge but a lot better then carrying it around but great vid/vids
Really cool that they send your purchases to your hotel
Ainda vou conhecer esse parque e comprar muitas coisas
me: hasn't been to universal orlando in years
also me: watches this
Can’t wait going for my birthday, have a shirt that says “I solemnly Swear that it is my birthday” in hope I’ll get selected for the Olivanders Wand Experience.
Before visiting Universal Studios Florida several times, I literally no interest in Harry Potter. I still rode all of the rides, but didn't even bother snapping any photos of the wizarding world during my 2015 visit. The rides were fun and neat, but I wasn't really into the lore.
After a few more visits, and getting to ride the new rides Escape from Gringotts and the newest ride, Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure, my curiosity began to be more piqued, so two years ago, I started listing to the audiobooks and then later the movies. This has since turned me into a fan of the series. I attribute Universal's attention to detail and the immersiveness of the wizarding world they created to finally bringing me there.
I never knew this channel existed and I am so pleased ❤️❤️❤️ wow just wow ‼️
this might just be one of my favourite videos of yours Peter, seeing Megan live in action at the wizarding world was super fun as well! can't wait for your next amazing video:)
Hey thanks Kayla! Yes, it was a blast collaborating with Megan on this one.
If I remember correctly, 3 days Park2Park is now more expensive than an annual pass. I’m only going 1 day, but with 2 days I would’ve got the difference already (I thought 50-100 dollars), with the discount on merchandise, food and extra tickets.
Not sure if this has already been said, but you can go to the bank in diagon alley and exchange muggle money for wizarding money to use in the HP sections of the parks.
Yes. I avoid mentioning this because they don't provide you with wizarding coins (which is real wizarding money). It's just a gift certificate basically.
@@ThePotterCollector that makes sense. :-)
Thanks for these awesome tips. Hope i can use one day
This video is just a great help! Can’t wait to plan my trip to the Wizarding World!
The early admission isn’t always for the hotel people or when you pay for it. I went to universal couple years ago not knowing they had early admission passes and they just let my family and I in during early admissions
Park to park tickets, you can ride the train both ways; it's different images each way.
I cried 😭 when I saw the cost.
What is the cost??
@@jessicaevans905 $200ish PP
it’ll be such a dream to go here :(( loved all these tips, so glad to see my two favourite people in one video!!
Very good idea to make this kind of videos!!! it may help many people to save money and time, and also have a greater time at The Wizarding World Of Harry Potter!! Greetings from Argentina, and congrats for hiting 100k subs!!
Thanks for the tips!!! Going there in a few weeks so I'll be sure to remember these!
I went on a Tuesday morning in October the park wasn’t overly crowded it was actually really nice all day. So maybe during the week it’s less crowded too.
Normally Parks are less crowded in the week when there are no holidays etc. going on (unless its probably Disney) and you need luck with the weather.
That are some of the first tipps n tricks that every themepark crazy person will give you.
For me its iam going to Parks cause i want to have fun on some rides and not standing in line for 2h. Everything over 30min wait is a complete wasted time for me.
I'm so sad I couldn't make it this Year because of covid 19 😭😭
loved the video! A Harry Potter video that I would enjoy would be “How to get the most out of The Wizarding World”. So basically just how to do everything at the Wizarding World in just one day.
I think you’ll definitely need multiple days to see every little corner and detail!
Yes indeed! If you only have one day to visit, this video will be very helpful in getting the most out of that day.
You can do it in one day if that’s all you have. Ride the rides first, then do the extras.
One, I've already been doing. Planning for the day, I finally get to go. And YES, part of that is budgeting for the stuff I want, using Peter's videos. :) What better way, then advice from a fellow Slytherin.
Fellow Slytherinzzz for the WIN!
This was an awesome video.....would you have a rough estimate of how much everything would be?
Just dying to go, don't know when though..
Me too..guess I'm gonna have to wait for the covid vaccine to be made if that ever happens😭, I hope we both get to go. Upside we have awhile to save up for it.
@@jennifermurray4387 I think its better to take the correct vitamins and minerals and natural boosters for the immune system and remove yourself away from this covid19 vaccine nonsense, unless you are a direct target for this super bug and you are in poor health, please snap out of the brainwashing and fear mongering created by the media and social networks, the psychology is extremely unhealthy and dangerous. Wishing you well and hope you get to go 😊🤗
Is it beneficial / necessary to have an express pass for the Wizarding world?
Do you have tips for ticket purchasing?
The lines can be long in the Harry Potter areas. But, Universal has done a wonderful job making the wait in line interesting. There is so much to look at when in line for the rides.
I would definitely recommend it! When I got into the park I stood in the lines for the rides as it was still early and I didnt have to wait too long. I then made use of the Express Pass later on in the day when the lines were super long. This made the day less stressful, I was less grumpy, and I basically got to go on the rides twice with minimal waiting.
Omg I have that same exact out of print shirt!
Well this is convenient. Going tomorrow! 😁
Very helpful as I plan my first visit!
My parents are considering taking me and my brother and son to be born brother next year so thank you for these tips
hi! i am wondering how to schedule or where to go for the wand sorting ceremony for the one on one experience at universal 💞 if anyone knows pls reply
Is the Park in Florida the same as the Park in LA? Or does one park have things the other does not? And if so, which park is better?
Nope, I feel like Florida has way more 😟 (no train ride and I didn't see a lot of the stores Peter has featured, Peter probably has a more thorough description of what's different I'm sure)
That video was fantastic 😀😀😀😀👍👍👍👍. Also thank you for all the tips they were all helpful.
ABSOLUTELY LOVE HARRY POTTER
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS AT UNIVERSAL❤
I CAN LITERALLY LIVE THERE FOREVER!
Orlando? Or Hollywood? Which is better? what offers more? Which experience is more surreal to the muggle eye?
Absolutely Orlando
