Part Two - Vacation

I meant to get this written and posted yesterday but it's been a crazy time coming back to reality.  Anyway, after four days at Disney we headed off for four days Universal!  I won't lie to you.  The main, if not only, reason I wanted to go was for Harry Potter Land and it didn't disappoint.  I loved it. Here are a few of my favorite photos of Universal.

Day One


Tranformers ride

 The Simpsons


DH Had to have the Duff Beer photos

Hogwarts!  It's beautiful!


Yep, we got to see the sorting hat.  We're pretty special.  ðŸ˜‰


DD and I got a ride with the Police in Whoville



DH trying to get a photo of the eclipse.  He got a better one with DD's phone.  We only got to see a partial but it was still neat.  Someone was kind enough to share their welder's glass with us.



My favorite book for my Daddy to read, or really recite, to me when I was little or not so little as he read it to my kids.

Day Three


With Jimmy Fallon


The triple decker bus from Harry Potter

Inside Gringotts



The moving photos in the papers

Day Four


Hogwarts from a distance





This was our last day here and it was our shopping day.  It was really a short day so not many photos.

Loved our trip to both Disney and Universal.  Two very different parks both very fun.  We ended our trip by spending the weekend with DS and is lovely wife.  We had a great time.  He just finished Pathfinder school.  We were trying to get there for his graduation but it was a day early so we missed it by about 4 hours...  So  proud of him and loved getting to spend time them.








What a great vacation!  Now it's back to grind... working on bulletins, sermons, laundry...  LOL  Life!
