I got 2 wands (Neville, Snape), Chocolate frogs, Marauder's map, Bertie Bott's every flavour beans, sneakerscope, remembrall, Gryffindor scarve among lots of clothes and other merchandise. Forbidden Journey is my favorite ride ever! Not scary at all but it was such a good representation of the films, I went on it twice and the ques were huge but the ride was well worth the wait. First time, the ride broke so I had about a 2 and a half hour wait in the scorching sun but it's good because in the que you see all stuff from the films. Was going to go on again a third time but it broke again and wasn't repaired until the next day. (it breaks often, be prepared!) They have the trio and Dumbledore speaking to you once your in Hogwarts and it felt so realistic. Plus they have the talking portraits of the Hogwarts founders! I can't wait to go back there but be warned the ques are painful. There's other rides there - Flight of the Hippogriff and Dragon Challenge. Hippogriff is quite babyish but I enjoyed it because you get to walk past Hagrid's hut and Buckbeak in the que. Dragon Challenge is a floorless coaster which has loads of inversions and there's two "dragons" and at one point in the ride you have a near collision with the other "dragon"! I felt sick after it but glad I went on it, even though it was probably the most intense coaster I've been on. Even to get in the shops, you have to wait. I also advise not to drink Pumpkin Juice, the bottle itself is nice but the drink I thought was disgusting. The shops are so authentic and I was actually in awe the first time I stepped foot in Hogsmeade because it actually felt like I was in the films. Loved it so much, it definitley lived up to my expectations.

are you gonna show us pics ?
