The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade (Orlando): Part 2

[Colleendoll]

Those were the tryouts though, so not necessarily his official number.

Now I have to get out the movie and watch it just to make sure. I think I giggled a little at the number when we watched the movie before. Why? Ok I might be dating myself a bit by this comment but the colors of the uniform and the number made me think back to a day when me Dad and brothers were watching the superbowl and Everyone around the TV said that the quarterback from the Red Skins was throwing the game on purpose and playing for the other team. I think the quarter back or something was Joe Thysman? Sorry not a real sports fan and might have really butchered his name or had it completely wrong but I do believe his number was 7. Anyway, Harry would never throw a game. I don't think the Red Skin guy threw the game either, they were going against a team my young mind thought had Hard Core scary uniforms. Hey, I was a prissy little girl.

Very nice Shellemonster! It's so nice to see your report. I know the man who created the eyeball bonanza so I will be sure to tell him it's your favorite. he will be tickled to hear that!

Thanks for the report Shellemonster!

What do you all think it is going to be like the first week of the opening? Is there any chance they will stop letting people into the Wizarding World due to it being at full capacity?

From what I've read here, they probably will stop letting people in. I'm going to have to rethink how early I get there...

 

[soyouthinkyouknow]

I simply meant not caring about going to the parties & events that wasn't a general statement relax

You are so disrespectful. get over yourself.

Do package holders get in an hour early?

 

[rinacee]

I have no idea. I would think no, but then again, they paid for the package that day. So maybe? I just think that could end up being a complete mess...but I've never been to one of these things, so don't believe anything I say, haha.

I have to say this, I was afraid to watch some of the videos because I want to be a little surprised when we see the WWOHP but I am sooo Glad I saw the Frog Choir. Why? I was so happy and swept up in it that I Cried! I am sooo excited for my children to see this place on their birthday!! Really glad I did not wait to see this in person because I would have bawled my eyes out in front of my children. They wouldn't know how to act with Mom crying. I never cry unless I am really angry after doing all I can to accomplish something and then to find out it is really all out of my control to fix. A rare thing for me. This time I was actually moved to tears by sheer joy instead. Thank you to Inside the Magic for that video!!!

Yes package holders go in at 8 with the general public entering the park (& WWoHP if they let you) at 9

I'll be going to Universal around 7:30 tomorrow in hopes that Potter will open!

Great report, shellemonster: I see we both had the same complaint in our reports about the seat back storagedigging into our spines, we must be about the same height! LOL!

 

[Hatetofly]

I plan on being in citywalk by 8:30 so I can get into IOA at 9:00am on the dot. I hope tomorrow is finally the day, three years in the making and its so close. I'm not going to get my hopes up but man am I excited!

I'm somewhat confused about the restraints. In this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8KHb2yIiuY&feature=channel go to 0:24.
I appears there pulling something down, it is no doubt thats the restraint. But it seems as if it is a block over them?
Can someone explain?

There are squares above your head so that you are kind of blocked in.

 

[DisFreakBrent]

Well looks like a few of us will be there than not sure what time I will get there but if anyone sees me feel free to say hi. I might do twitter but not sure yet because it drains my battery really bad.

 

[daniellelorean]

I'll be there too. On twitter and all, but I don't get tweets sent to my phone so I won't see anyone else's. Feel free to say hey to me as well. C:

Oh. Whoa there. I didn't even see how small the people were, for a second I thought the riders were pulling down the restraint. Thanks mantaguy!

For those that would like their entire ride experience on FJ either explained if you were confused or spoiled if you're desperate please head to page 46 of the spoiler thread.
You've been warned.

I bet you're right. I noticed it both times I rode and it kinda sucked a lot. By the way, great report to you too sir!

Very nice Shellemonster! It's so nice to see your report. I know the man who created the eyeball bonanza so I will be sure to tell him it's your favorite. he will be tickled to hear that!

Please do! I know how much work goes into making these things.

I mean at the grand opening. Do package holders go in an hour early and then the general public or everyone at the same time?

 

[BTT_Racheal]

The best bet is to get in tomorrow and Thursday. They only did it because their were very few hotel guests that showed up. Saturday, I would say forget it...as well as next weekend as most schools will be letting out. Though...we hear tell of a passholder preview coming sometime next week and being announced end of this. Not saying it will happen, but we did call the soft opening today. Any rate....100 more pics have been loaded, with a lot more detail.
