Orlando Day 5: Universal Studios

The day started with a Mazel Tooth!  Bru's first!

Universal itself has a lot of great stuff but mostly: Harry Potter!
This is outside the Escape from Gringotts ride, which is really great and I went on it alone.
This photo really has it all: photobombing park employee, Gringotts, older guest clutching a stuffed Fawkes stuffed animal.
This is Brittany, the PR rep who wanted to buy us butterbeer, but was told that even though the bb itself was kosher, the foam was not, and they COULD NOT sell it without the foam.  So she bought the kids wands instead!  A much better trade up.  Thanks Universal!
At the wand shop, the wandmaker picked Hannah... and then the wand picked her!

At the currency exchange.  That guy interacts with you.
After we were finished in Diagon Alley, Brittant put us on the train the other park.  But first, we got to go through the wall:
That guy at the end really steals the show. 
On the Hogwarts Express, on the way to Hogsmeade.
Of course, there's other stuff to do at Universal too.  But we didn't take many pics anywhere else.
In the Dr. Seuss land.
On a ride.  Cat in the Hat, I think.
