  1. Universal Studios - The Hogsmeade Experience at Universal Studios is fun and worth it. The frozen butter beer is awesome.
  2. SDCC -- San Diego was fun and exhausting. The masquerade went well. We didn’t win any awards, but got lots of kudos, including from the Motion Picture Costumer’s Association.
