HARRY POTTER STUDIO TOUR.
Nothing else needs to be said about today.
Well, we did have an epic 2 hour journey from Monument to Watford Junction to get to the Leavesden studios. But it doesn't matter any more. Because HARRY POTTER. (Note: Do not attempt to catch the tube in peak hour with baggage. It will not end well, and will end in having to take a taxi in peak hour instead.)
It was an amazing experiance once we finally got there, seeing all the sets right next to each other, the costumes, props, special effects and planning of the movies. Everything was so complete and it made it feel just a little bit real. I was definitely imagining going to Hogwarts. I also got to ride a broom (but I did decline to pay the £14 fee to get the picture).
There's not much that I can say without rambling, so I'll leave everyone with a few (or more than a few) pictures that should leave you all wanting to add this to your bucket list.
