On Friday, we went to Universal Studios in Orlando Florida. It was
awesome...for the most part. I don't know how people can live down here.
It's so hot, humid, and muggy. The entire time I've been here, a quote
from The Mummy keeps running through my mind. "What is a place like me,
doing in a girl like this." Expect in my case...it's "What is a girl
like me, doing in a place like this." (Yes, I'm kind of like Ryanne in
the fact that I often recite movie quotes all the time.) I couldn't
handle this weather all the time. I can barely handle Indiana summers.
Today,
we went to Islands of Adventure. One word: Harry-freaking-Potter. Okay,
that's more than one word, but I combined it with hyphens to create one
word. I have the liberty to do that. Don't judge.
For
some reason, I've always been a Weasley fan. Gingers all the way. I find
Rupert Grint adorable and I love all the awkwardness that is Ron
Weasley. I wish I was Hermione. 1. Because she's AWESOME. 2. She married
Ron. There are many other reason, but that would need a whole other
post. You guys don't need me to ramble on about Romione.

| Frozen Butterbeer, yum :) |
It
was awesome to walk through Hogsmeade and Hogwarts. For all HP fans,
it's a crazy thing to think that this whole place was created in the
mind of J.K. Rowling. It's awesome to think that Harry Potter is going to be enjoyed for many more generations. It's not just a YA trend that's going to fade and disappear. (I hope you all have read and reread the books countless times like I have!)
I think that the Harry Potter and the Forbidden
Journey ride was ahhhhmazing. It actually felt like I was flying.
I rode it twice and my family is going back tomorrow and I'll probably
ride it a few more times. I even got to try Butterbeer!
The
two days my family has been at Universal it has started raining. Today,
we had a lovely poncho to wear. It was a fantastic time frolicking
through large masses of people while wearing a bright yellow garbage bag
with holes for a head and two arms. Haha, actually the ponchos were
kinda of fun and I can't complain much since I remained dry.
My
mom thinks that I need to get a little more personal with the blogging
universe and my readers and be like "Hey all, this is me!", so here are
some pics from the trip. Anyone who actually knows me, knows how
difficult it is to get me in any pictures, so it's a pretty rare thing
that I actually took some pictures voluntarily on this trip!

I
have a few more vacation posts coming up. The next few posts will be
more book related and I may even reveal the title for book three in the
coming week. I'm in a pretty good mood, so keep an eye out for that!
Keeping spreading the word about BB and SS and rating them. Ya'll are awesome and I hope you all have a fantastic summer :)


What did the butter beer tast like?
ReplyDeleteIt had a butterscotch/Carmel taste. It was very sweet, but I actually enjoyed it. The fact that it was frozen was very nice after walking around in the heat all day!

Hi Kaitlyn! I'm a running buddy of your fathers. I mentioned at a race a few weeks back my (somewhat secret) love of urban fantasy. He told me his daughter wrote and published a few books. I know any father would be proud but still gave it a chance and... WOW! So glad I did. Girl, I'm sucked into this series and finished both books on a flight to Europe. I've already rated book 1 on amazon and book 2 is even better. I can see the growth from 1 to 2 and definitely look forward to reading #3. Congrats and keep it up! Very impressive.
ReplyDeleteYour new fan,
Stephanie
Wow, thank you Stephanie! My dad will tell anyone with a pulse about my books, haha. I'm so glad that you liked them! I can't wait for you to read book 3!:) Thanks for rating the books too! Ratings really help.
