Is Poseidon the same as King Triton? #IOA #Universal
Are they brothers? Is one the Greek version and the other the Roman version? They both seem to have one of these triton spear things.

Exited the Wizarding World of Harry Potter – for today
I think they’ve made an error of scale in there. I know small and cozy is what merry olde English towns are like but it’s too small in there for the size of the crowd. You can’t even shop without standing in a line first. I didn’t even try to get near the castle. I’ll do that with the gang on Sunday.

Hermione Granger’s wand – now mine :o)
I think Hermione’s wand is the most attractive. Second was Prof McGonnegall’s, with the crystal tip. I liked Hermione’s best, even better than my Celtic zodiac wand, which the CM told me is witch hazel heh heh heh.
Starting to get hungry again. Need to eat soon and eat light because we’ve got Cali Grill this evening.

Found platform 9 3/4 #harrypotter #universal
There are so many people milling around, it’s hard to get good shots of this area. The station itself is a locker area.

Butterbeer does not disappoint!
I could not make a habit of this because it is too sweet – but it’s a fine once-in-a-while treat. i would like to try a frozen one at some point, too.
I heard a woman on line disparaging the pumpkin juice, so now I’m-a-skeered to try it.

Two things I like about CityWalk…
One, they play bitchen music – The Academy is rockin’ on the big screen right now.
Two – they have a Starbucks 🙂
