Warner Bros. Studio Tour London: The Making Of Harry Potter

 

 

The people who know me personally know that I do like Harry Potter. Quite a lot. And since I'm in England I had to visit Harry Potter world. Darren was kind enough to join me so I didn't have to go there alone and he was driving as well so I didn't have to pay for the train tickets haha. Even though I first had to go to Milton Keynes and Darren picked me up from there but that wasn't too bad though.

 

In my opinion the whole thing was ok but I feel like I expected it to be a bit more than that. There were just props from all the movies basically in one room and they didn't even have a certain order they were just there. They had all the original costumes that they used in the film but the dolls that were wearing them either didn't have faces or didn't have heads which didn't really make it feel real in a way. I mean it was a nice place to visit but I'm not sure if it was worth £33 for one person to go in.. I would probably enjoy more going to the actually castle that it was filmed in but that is personal so other people might enjoy Harry Potter World more.

 

Anyway that tour took about two hours for us to go through even though they said it would take like 3-5h to get trough it all.. :D Well at least I've visited the place now so I know what it is. I hope you all enjoyed your weekend!

6 days left

Oh my.. I haven't even realised that the time has gone so fast.. So basically I've got 6 days left here in England and I think it's safe to say that I'm panicking a bit haha. I have already started to think about packing and I'm pretty sure I have to send some stuff over to Finland because otherwise my bags will be too heavy :D So I just have to find a box from somewhere..

 

Okay I've got mixed feelings about leaving.. I feel like I could go to Finland for a month or two and then just come back here. It will also be so weird not to see all these people in a long time and go back to the life that I had in Finland. I'll get used to it though, eventually.

 

Today I went to a place called Boston Tea Party with Anette and had my first brunch ever! And of course because it was the first brunch ever I had to have pancakes and then also a kiwi, banana and orange smoothie. I was really excited and happy since that got me out of bed earlier and I feel like I had the whole day left haha. We stayed there for like 1,5h just talking about stuff and eating our delicious breakfast.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After the brunch we met Peter and since there was a carneval outside we checked that out. They had different kind of rides and bouncy castles over there and some booths were you can win stuff or buy food. We went to one ride and walked back to Peter's flat which wasn't far from there. There we then had tea and biscuits (so English) and we just chilled out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Apparently there are more canals in Birmingham than there are in Venice. Just a fact for you guys haha.

 

I guess now I have to go to Tesco's and ask if they could give me a box haha such a weirdo.. I hope you had a really nice week and weekend!
