Did you guys hear that they're building a Harry Potter theme park in Orlando, Florida. There's gonna be Hogwarts, the Forbidden Forest, and Hogmeades. Maybe something else too, I forget. But that's gonna be so cooool!! I would so want to go there.

Its like a couple hours away from where I live. Just went to Universal a while ago on a school field trip. I wonder which island it will be on.

Yeah, I heard, too. I think it's a money-making idea, that will work.
Ghost: Wow, you're lucky. That's so cool that you live really close.
I'm like Jen. I haven't been down their either.

I am so going to Florida when it opens!!! What would be really ace is if they had hotels there too, like you could stay in mock-up versions of the dorm rooms, or in the Leaky Cauldron

Ha! Party at your house!
I was thinking about the hotel thingy just after I made my last post. I also though, would leaky serve butterbear? If so, yum! And it would be soo cool going to Zonkos and Honeydukes! I would have the time of my life!
Then you can also enter the forbidden forest and hogwarts. It would be fun going inside hogwarts and exploring the place!

But the place cant be exactly to scale because Hogsmeade is a fair distance away from Hogwarts. But whatever, as long as its there.
Im glad they are chopping off a part of the Lost Continent, that place is so boring! I never even go on any of the attractions there. The best island is the Marvel island =]

I've been longing for them to make a HP theme park and so glad it's happening! Would be nicer if it was in England, but then I've only been to Alton Towers once and nowhere else so makes little difference to me!!
Oh my god, they should so have a pub there with Firewhiskey and such. I want to get wankered in the Three Broomsticks!
Oh, and I'll bet they have look-a-likes too, people in costumes and such. I am so getting a photo of me humping Snape's leg or something XD
Ha ha, we should have a HSWW meet-up there in 2010!!!

Universal intends to spend $230 million to $265 million to create "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter" at Islands of Adventure along with a previously announced Simpsons attraction, according to a filing Thursday with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
And for that much it better be fucking amazing!!
So going there!
But yeah it would be good if there was one in the UK too...

An HSWW meetup would be so much fun! People are actually close to my age on this board, which makes it better, if it actually happens.
