Hi when i booked with virgin today, i was told hp will be opening spring, and that they had it confirmed this morning straight from universal, so fingers crossed

A Mickeyfan · 10-09-2009, 06:18 PM

I can't wait until the end of this month so I can see the "updates" for myself

I should have been there the end of Sept but ended up with the flu that went into pneumonia so needless to say, I had to cancel that trip. I am on the mends now and do plan on being there for HHN the end of the month

Mad Hattered · 10-09-2009, 07:23 PM

Thanks for all the updates Don Pacho!! It's really coming together now.

damo · 10-10-2009, 08:17 AM

It is quite amazing how much work they've done this week.

And for those out there that need a little more help

And the Astronomy Tower as shown in Half-Blood Prince:

Edit: So yeah, once I pushed submit Drew already posted a better picture. Well played.

I believe this piece to be the courtyard like facade that will sit in front of the Great Hall.

Also, but very random, Brian Orndorf noticed that a cartoony Potter ornament already is decorating the Port of Entry Christmas shop.

everytime I click on this thread it just gets more and more amazing

I started to collect DLP ornaments, so especially love the last one

Again, thanks to all who are posting.

Theming of the queue for Hogwart's is underway.

View of West Hogsmeade

Also, does anyone have a pic of the front of Hagrid's Hut? I have been resourcing trying to locate a good pic of what the front of his hut looks like at IOA.

mvansear · 10-12-2009, 09:12 PM

Everyone who is posting pics thank you so verrry much

It just keeps building my anticipation! I will be there in 98 days, I can't wait. Do you all think there is any hope of flying unicorn being open? Kids fav ride esp my little one who is 6.

Mad Hattered I had a stick of CareFree gum, but it didn't work. I felt pretty good while I was blowing that bubble, but as soon as the gum lost its flavor, I was back to pondering my mortality.
