I had the fun experience of leaving my kids abode too traveling alongside my adorable sister-in-law to California! It was therefore much fun. We flew into Long Beach too stayed inward Anaheim. We spent an entire glorious Fri inward Hollywood at Universal Studios. It was a blast. Everyone deserves a trip without kids!
My starting fourth dimension tip for go (especially alongside a rental motorcar that is unfamiliar) is to accept a painting of where you lot park. We parked on the Curious George level. Easy to reference on my shout out upwards at the halt of a long day!

We were therefore excited virtually the fun of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter...but genuinely nosotros didn't rush at that topographic point first. It's form of the BEST too newest attraction at Universal, therefore if you lot tin concur off until afternoon, it's less busy. We went to the Minion/Despicable Me ride first, alongside only a few people inward front end of us, nosotros didn't fifty-fifty stimulate got to purpose our Front-of-Line passes.
Universal Studios gifted me two passes for the common too two Front-of-Line passes...which felt totally worth it. Front-of-Line passes allow you lot rush to the front end of the trace of piece of occupation ane fourth dimension on each ride. They scan your lanyard too that is that. Some rides the trace of piece of occupation was therefore short, nosotros didn't stimulate got to purpose our Front-of-Line transcend until later...so nosotros got multiple rides on only about without whatever hold off fourth dimension at all. We never had to hold off to a greater extent than than 5-10 minutes for a unmarried ride!
I loved the Simpson ride, the Mummy ride, the Transformers ride, nosotros met Spongebob Squarepants, ane of the minions too, The Hollywood Tour was amazing, too I loved Jurassic Park ride. They stimulate got a transformer at that topographic point to come across too greet, every bit good every bit a dinosaur, Shrek too Donkey, saw the Despicable Me girls, too a genuinely tall pharaoh guy yesteryear the Mummy ride. It was agency cool.
We went to special effects shows too loved every minute! It felt similar existence on a moving painting set!
And too therefore nosotros headed to Hogwarts.

Of course of education wearing our fabulous handmade shirts which got lots of attention!
If you lot purchase an interactive wand, you lot tin cast spells all over the Wizarding World where at that topographic point are these niggling symbols on the ground. I didn't purchase a wand, but at that topographic point were lots of people that had them too it was fun to picket them cast their spells.

I loved the attending to particular inward this particular department of the park. It's perfection. Window displays that move, dorsum alleys too amazing store decor!

There's lots of fun places to accept pictures too wander around.

There's loads of crafty inspiration too! I beloved these teacup towers too teapot fountains!

Honeydukes did non disappoint! The displays lone are amazing too at that topographic point are walls too shelves only brimming alongside brightly colored candy!

We ate a belatedly tiffin at the Three Broomsticks. It was phenomenal. I had fish too chips alongside corn on the cob. It felt therefore proficient to sit down downward too consume a delicious hot meal. The hold off times were awesome too nosotros had our nutrient inward mere minutes. (Traveling inward early on September is awesome!)

Backdrops too doors too lots of fun places for painting taking.

We stopped at the Butterbeer cart for a frozen butterbeer earlier heading to a special effects show. The frozen butterbeer was awesome too tastes similar a cream soda slushies...with hints of butterscotch. There wasn't fifty-fifty a trace of piece of occupation at the drinkable cart!

Of course of education at that topographic point is the Hogwarts Express prepare on platform ix 3/4 alongside a friendly conductor. He was a bloke from England, therefore naturally nosotros chatted a while! It was this trip that I realized that my sunglasses brand my ears poke out...ugh, oh well.

Larger than life props too sets brand you lot genuinely experience similar you lot are there!

Okay, ane of my favorite places is the bath of the Wizarding World. If you lot hang out inward at that topographic point long enough, you'll listen Moaning Murtle. It's a smashing house for a pit-stop that is entertaining!

Apart from the beautiful landscape too palm trees that California has to offer, Harry Potter basis was amazing.

I had a wonderful fourth dimension at Hogwarts, the Harry Potter ride is therefore fun! Nearly every ride at Universal Studios is similar a 3D moving painting alongside topographic point motion. If you lot larn sick easily from 3D movies, you lot may desire to footstep yourself at Universal. Our Front-of-Line passes got us through the trace of piece of occupation therefore fast, nosotros didn't stimulate got fourth dimension to bask the interior decor of Hogwarts.
