Check this out!!! Just imagine... you can walk through Hogsmeade!

There's some concept art of it here.

A WHOLE park? That's a bit much...as cool as it would be, it would function better as a section of one, like another Island of Adventure or something.

If you had any idea how psyched I am about this, you'd be backing away slowly.

I want to shop in Diagon Alley! Immediately! And go on a Thestral ride!

I wonder when this is due to be finished by? I wish they had had this last year when I went there with National Honor Society.

How long does it take to build a themepark?

I WANT TO GO AS SOON AS THEY'RE DONE!!!

I mean, *cough*...I'll give it...ohhh...3 years?

They said 2009. I'm camping out for it as soon as I drive to Florida. Can anyone bring a George Foreman grill and an oil lamp? This is going to be hardcore camping.

...! Wow. I am so excited about this; I think it's way cool! OMG, I can't wait till it's open -- then maybe I can finally convince my dad to take us there. =O

Wow, this sounds really exciting and awesome, I'm happy for every Harry Potter fan out there.

Too bad I am not one and would not appreciate this enough.

Wow, that sounds really awesome! But I must say, big things like this always worry me because they always seem to be such a money waster...

I saw this the other day. I wish I lived closer to Florida, haha.

Same here

but it's definitely going to be on my list of things to do when I go visit the US.

I can bring the grill! I dont know about an oil lamp though..I'm sure one of my many friends that go camping and hunting has one though!

Hopefully I'll be living in Florida at that point, so I'll just drive up and keep people company in line

I'm very curious as to what kinds of rides they're going to have.
