Livin' in a Muggle's Paradise


**Disclaimer: This is a Harry Potter nerd alert. However, for all the HP haters (Mike and Ben Comer), proceed with a Harry Potter gladdittude. I won't tell anyone that you both went to the midnight book release with me in NYC and wore the HP glasses...


Today I was reminded (not that I ever forgot) about all the things I truly love about HARRY POTTER! #gryffindor4life #HogwartsExpress #IheartMcGonogall Kathryn and I went to the Harry Potter prop/costume/movie set exhibit at the ArtScience Museum in Sing. Check out the exhibit here!

First off, let me show you where the exhibit was (to the left). It's such a cool building, and it sits among some of the most interesting and unique architecture/buildings in the city.
Secondly, the exhibit was AWESOME, especially with my fellow HP fanatic, Kathryn! We learned all the behind the scenes facts (like the fact that they actually made a mechanical Buckbeak and later, the prop designers would make it follow different cast members around as a practical joke), and we saw all the costumes and set designs...we knew we were in the presence of literary and cinematic brilliance :) Unfortunately, we could not take any pictures in the actual exhibit but I can tell you, I was officially sorted into Gryffindor and Kathryn is an expert Quidditch player!

 Today was actually the last day of Singapore being home to this exhibit so we split a chocolate frog to commemorate the occasion!



All in all, one magical day well spent.
