Thank you! I didn't notice that was a wearable item. o_o

Absolutely! I've seen some cheap/tacky-looking merchandise. I'm glad they are going in some new directions.

The whole collection is amazing. Including the ones from Fantastic Beast.

Yeap! They had it on display behind the cashiers at the castle in Hogsmeade. It is about $200 for it.

I have the pens in the shape of the Elder wand and Harry's as well as the one that light up, but I really want the full collection. Collecting is expensive LOL right now I have the Funko POP collection and I am missing about 20 of them all together. I love them.

Did someone hand-make the ornaments? I love checking out places like etsy to see what people are making.

Riddle 2:

I am furry and enjoy shiny things. When I am near, keep an eye on your expensive diamond rings.

What am I?

Edit: Solved!

Aw, thanks so much!!

Haha, I was actually just reading through your and 's posts about HP world! I actually went for the first time last January and I am actually going back again this January! It is absolutely the most wonderful place and I can't wait to go back!

I'll be interested to see what they've added because of Fantastic Beasts. I bought Hermione's wand last time, I may have to buy another one. We ended up buying the non-interactive wands, because they feel so much more real since they're so much heavier. Also, I'm looking forward to drinking about 17 butterbeers. XD

That is awesome that you are going back. Are you going around the convention?

Ooh, I never thought of them adding stuff for Fantastic Beasts. They could have more creature items. :) Don't you wish you could take the butterbeer home? I hear they make warm ones seasonally. I just tried the frozen.

No, sadly, although that would be SO awesome! I went with my friends from college, and we went down because the second week in college Disney does a marathon thing at their parks, and some of my friends wanted to do it. So we went to the Disney parks and HP World! We're going back again since the boys are morons and want to run the marathon again. Frankly, all the walking through the parks is hard enough, I think! XD

Omg, the butterbeer was SO good!! I actually had the hot kind and it was definitely my favorite. I didn't care for the frozen one as much. I feel like the hot one is just how it's supposed to be. But I didn't even think about the fact that that wouldn't taste very good in the summer! XD

Oh, that sounds like fun! Are there Disney characters running too? Haha, I agree. There is so much walking as is.

Ah, I must have just missed the warm butterbeer season. I thought the frozen was good. I don't normally like butterscotch. But it's like they infused it with magic. The warm sounds delicious! That's always how I envisioned it too.

- Yep! I was shopping around on Etsy, my original plan was to get a Ravenclaw ornament for myself and a Slytherin one for my friend, but I came across that one and thought - that'll be perfect for both of us! You can choose different glitter colors but I stuck with silver :D Etsy is such an awesome place, my wallet suffers a bit but it is always worth it.

Riddle 3:

Enter me, and you will find a dodgy clerk, old artifacts, expensive knick-knacks, and other dark works. What am I?

Edit: Solved! _

Hah. I can totally relate. There is a lot of cool stuff on there. Also, it's inspirational when looking for diy craft ideas. I made these paper camera ornaments for gifts this year. They turned out pretty cute.

LOL butterbeer was my downfall. I loved the frozen one and no other recipe lives up to it with its 1,600 calories XD

Nope, didn't even like the regular one much lol frozen even in the cold nights! Fact stories that are not funny but they are cray... I was there for both stories: One was a pigeon flew directly to the top of the butterbeer wagon station and there were feathers everywhere. It didn't affect the butterbeer in any way but still that happened. The other thing that happened was the guy that hit his eye during dueling dragons ride. It is crazy because they are rare and freak accidents but they do happen. I worked the Dueling dragons for a day and that job is not glamorous at all.

Oh no! Was the injury bad? I can't handle roller coasters like that. The queue/getting riders on and off quickly must be crazy for employees. I remember people being hurriedly pushed along the start/end of the Hogwarts ride. That was an odd experience.

You are correct! Sending over: How have you been?

Woohoo! How are feeling today?

The worst part of rides is the people who get sick XD then the people that fight all the time and get angry.

Actually from what I remember it was pretty bad and they were trying to blame a bird but really it seems he was trying to take a picture at the top and hit himself. There were different reports for it if I remember right. It was a big deal but it went by like it didn't happen. The best way is to do singles line or stay at the hotels on site. They key cards acted like express passes (at least when I worked there). Most of the time when you do singles you can still end up with a family or friend on the same ride.

Better, just kind of weak and tired now. I think I just need a couple more days in bed to get my strength back and then I'll be good. How are you doing?

We did the singles line for every ride and, with three people, ended up being on the same cart or the next cart for all of them. It was so quick that way. An hour queue would be ten minutes or less.

You would think people would enjoy themselves at a theme park and not be so mean. :/ When it gets crowded, there is so much more to explore. Marvel Island was awesome.

Ah, that stinks that it is taking so long. But good you are still improving. Have you been eating a ton of soup? I'm good! Just trying to stay busy before Christmas. I get so restless when I don't work for a few days.
