Day 45–46: Universal

We went to Universal Studios Parks for Jimmy’s special trip thing. He is a super Harry Potter fan so we took him to the Harry Potter worlds in the parks. We also bought him a fancy wand that interacted with the environment. It was really fun!
Except for when the heavens opened up all their fury and dumped a torrent of rain on us, all the while accessing their inner Thor and stormed lightening and thunder all around us. We got to learn how many people can hide inside of a theme park shop at a time. Its approximately the amount of people I don’t want to be stuck in a shop with. It was also a test of the clothes I packed in how long it took for them to dry after an emergency trip to the restroom at the height of the storm.
Needless to say we were glad that we planned 2 days. The second day was not nearly as bad as the first.

We got our blues on with the Blues Brothers

Had to grab a picture for Grampa Ausmus

Jimmy apparently was able to skip out on any pictures of him and his wand. But that was likely because he was gone the whole time while James and I sat out resting our toes.

James also was not able to ride any of the rides from the beginning of the Universal portion of the trip. We needed to find an emergency chiropractor and get him realigned after stress finally got to him.

Great News! 

An update: James was useful and took a picture of Jimmy in Diagon Alley.
