This week the world’s biggest Harry Potter fans celebrated their birthday in style at Harry Potter World in Orlando. Happy 9th birthday Ro and Ree! We all had so much fun celebrating with you. What a fun Team Salsa reunion tour (with wands this time).

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter now spans two parks in Florida, Diagon Alley is in Universal Studios and Hogsmeade is in Islands of Adventure. The two are connected by the fun Hogswart Express train. We bought park-to-park tickets (the ones that included Hogswart Express) and stayed at the Loew’s Royal Pacific Resort, which was awesome. If you go, make sure to stop by Ollivander’s first to get an interactive wand so you can cast spells throughout the parks.

This looks like the best 9th birthday ever! Love the wizard robes and scarves! We are huge Potter fans too! I can't wait to visit there someday! I'm glad to see the entire team got to go! Good tip on the hotel! We know all about the Disney area, but are clueless about the hotels around Universal. Thanks!

ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Ro and Ree, i hope your families had a wonderful day . It doesn't seem like you should be 9 !!!! I been following your family for a very long time. My little china baby turns 9 in 3 weeks ( granddaughter) and she is the love of my life. I was worried about Mama blogging, kept checking on you guys and i had a smile on my face today when i saw an update. Enjoy !!
ReplyDeleteOh Casey will be so jealous! She really wants to go there. She's going to be Harry Potter for Halloween. - Jamie
ReplyDeleteWe just got back from there today- spent a week at Universal. My two daughters are 8 and 10 and are huge Harry Potter fans also. Their favorite ride was Forbidden Journey. Looks like you guys had a great time!
ReplyDeleteThat was the girls' fave ride too! They loved it. (Made Tubadad a little green though, haha).
DeleteHappy 9th(gulp) Birthday girls. What a great birthday trip....I love Harry Potter! So nice to see family pics with everyone together. Thanks for the up-date!
ReplyDeleteCutest birthday girls! How is it that they're 9?!?!?
ReplyDeleteWhat are the girls and your dog dressing up for Halloween this year?
ReplyDeleteFunny that you ask! The girls ordered fun Halloween costumes quite a while ago, however now they have awesome head-to-toe Hogwarts outfits and can't decide what to do... I'm thinking they'll wear one costume to school and another to trick or treat... We'll have to see. (The dog is a pumpkin again, because he's just such a dang cute lil pumpkin.)
