We got up and booked in for an extra night as the rooms were clean and comfy. We were surprised how cheap Orlando was, a far cry from the hiked up tourist prices of London. We then headed over to Universal studios where I got completely over excited by the Harry Potter World. I WAS IN HOGSMEDE!!! We had a go on some of the rides - the broomstick ride complete with 3D screens left me feeling genuinely motion sick, so we headed in to the Three Hogs Head pub for some butterbeer to settle our stomachs. Olivander was in his shop and gave us a display with his wands. He went slightly out of character when he heard our accents and informed us that he was actually a bit of a lovey from Hampstead. He did let us pose with his wand though so all was forgiven.
We also checked out the Jurassic Park are and got chased by Raptors - scary. Then headed to the Marvel Comics area and rode on the Hulk ride which was pretty good, but left me feeling a bit green again - pun intended.
We cooled off in Cartoon Town on the Popeye ride - soon became apparent why no one else was on it , as we got completely soaked.
We headed back to the Harry Potter ride for one more go, only to get off and see someone had puked up by the exit, at least it wasn't just me who it made feel ill! We then watched the sun go down on Hogsmede behind Hogwarts before driving back the motel and sleeping like two little kids who'd spent the day at a theme park...
