One of my favorite places is Universal Studios' Orlando Resort in Florida. Out of all its attractions, I adored The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. The breathtaking view of sights, like Hogwarts, brought the world of Harry Potter to life.

One issue some people may have is that The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is split up between two parks. Universal Studios Florida features Diagon Alley and Gringotts, and Universal's Islands of Adventure is home to Hogwarts and Hogsmeade. However, the transportation that Universal Studios came up with for Harry Potter fans outweighs the inconvenience of moving between the parks. The Hogwarts Express, an attraction in itself, travels between King's Cross Station in London part of Universal Studios Florida and Hogsmeade in Universal's Islands of Adventure. The Hogwarts Express is a magical ride that I recommend to anyone who travels to Universal Studios' Orlando Resort.
Oh, this was so much fun to see, Rebekah! As a ritual at the start of every school year, we watch all the Harry Potter movies, one every night (we're actually going to finish tonight!). Maybe you will want to do a Harry-Potter-themed project for this class; Rowling wove so many mythological treads into those stories which you could turn into a Storybook of your own. :-)
