Dear Mr. Francis...

...you have been accepted, into Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. That's right, tomorrow my family and I will depart for Orlando, Florida to visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Saying that I'm pumped for this trip is a drastic understatement.

I have literally been counting down the days since the park was announced. As a matter of fact, I've actually been dreaming of a Harry Potter theme park long before Universal even made the official announcement.

SO, I would love to tell you that I haven't been blogging recently because I've been hard at work on my novel; however, that isn't the case. Sadly, I haven't worked on it much at all. The truth is that I have been working really hard to find a new job. I've actually started working in a part-time position and have had multiple interviews for a specific full-time position. Much of my time has been devoted to those two goals, as well as grad school

With all that being said, you can look forward to a plethora of quality blog posts over the next few days. They may not be long, but I can assure you they will be interesting (at least if you're a Harry Potter fan, and let's face it, if you aren't a fan...you should be). You can expect to see updates ranging from my first butterbeer, my wand selection, and of course...a review of the Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ride. So, with that being said, I hope you will follow my blog over the next week to see what all Universal's new park has to offer.

Man, you're the second friend I've had that'll have seen the Wizarding World. Maybe one of these days I'll get down there. They said it was awesome; actually they had VIP tickets that got them in the park a few days before the official Grand Opening and really enjoyed everything. I'm sure you will, too. Look forward to seeing photos and descriptions.
