17.09.24

On Tuesday, the 17.09. Melina, Lenz, Linus, Mia and Saskia stayed at home and the others drove with Kevin to the Harry Potter Studios. There we went inside and entered the first room, where we saw Harry’s former room under the stairs. After that, an employee explained something about the rules in the Harry Potter Studios and then showed us a short film shot by employees and children. After that we went to a movie theatre-like room where we saw a short film about the Harry Potter movies and the actors. Then we went through a large gate to the Hogwarts dining room, there were also life-size dolls of some of the Hogwarts teachers. When we walked through it, we split up and walked in three groups through the corridors and the rooms. From Hagrid’s house to Harry’s room in Hogwarts, there was everything that appears in the movies and even more. Most of us filmed or photographed a lot and in between we sometimes took pictures of us and Kevin for the blog. As we walked through the different rooms, suddenly a few people dressed as Death Eaters came and stood in the middle of the room and performed a choreographed show, with some of the objects in the room creating fog, making the show cooler. After the show we were allowed to take photos with the Death Eaters, Sarah and me took some and then looked for Kevin to take a picture with them too, and he did it. After the show we discovered a booth where you could take photos and videos on a flying broomstick. Sarah and me did the same, which resulted in funny but also cool photos, of which we each bought one at the end. Afterwards we walked to a forest with huge spiders and some of the dementors. There was also the hippo griffin and a display of Hagrid. Then we walked further and visited some exciting rooms. In a café we tried butterbeer. At the end we all met in the Harry Potter shop and most of us bought something. Then we went home and ate. The others helped Tiny cleaning the fields and removed a wire fence. Linus and Melina cleaned the kitchen and Linus cooked fried rice. Lenz and Mia baked cookies and Lenz threw half of them on the floor (but they were still delicious) and then we ate all together.
