Trip to London: Harry Potter Studio Tour



Getting to Warner Bros. Studios was a bit difficult as it is not in the city of London. We had to go to a train station, take the train to a suburb and then get on the shuttle that goes to the studio. At the beginning there is a short video, a guide explains features of the Great Hall and after that you are free to wander at your own pace. They said the record amount of time someone spent there was 9 hours!

The Great Hall
Harry's school uniforms throughout the years
Gryffindor Boys' Room
All the different wands
Dumbledore's office
Potion's classroom
Moody's trunk 
Weasley clock
Lots of random newspapers, advertisements, etc.
How cool would be to get to design that stuff! 

The Black Family tree
We also tried some Butterbeer!
The Knight Bus
Number 4 Privet Drive
Buckbeak
Diagon Alley - This was my favorite!
Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes

Architectural drawings for everything 
Model of Hogwarts

These were 'wand boxes' with the names of everyone involved in creating the movies.

They were just finishing celebrating the one year anniversary for the Warner Bros. Harry Potter Studio Tour while we were there, so that was really cool. Unfortunately, we missed seeing Prince William and Kate there by just two weeks!
