Father Son trip to Harry Potter Land

Adi and I took our first father son trip to Universal Studios to check out the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Adi had just completed 8 books and had watched 6 movies by this time so it was perfect timing.

We flew down to LA and spent 3 days in Universal Studios. It was so much fun! We bought the interactive wand at Ollivanders, although Adi didn't get picked by the wand maker. We went in the Forbidden Journey ride, like 10 times. Adi just loved it. Once he even sat alone without me (I was in the next coach), but the ride got suspended for a few mins mid-way scaring him. He would not sit in the Flight of the Hippogriff after going on Jurassic Park since he was scared.

I commend him on going to Jurassic Park and Mummy rides once. He also loved Transformers, Simpsons and Shrek. The show he loved most was Water World. We saw it 5 times and just could not get enough of it!

The first evening, we went to the planetarium at the Griffith Observatory and watched two shows there. We found parking far back so hiked half a mile to get there. Adi loved the shows!

After a fun trip, we came back, bringing great memories.
