PHOTOS & VIDEOS: Here’s What Our Day Was Like at Universal Orlando!

Are you ready for an adventure?

We headed into Universal Orlando to check out the new merchandise and some attraction updates. During our trip, we checked in on construction, found some awesome wands, and took a tour of the new lockers in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. 

Our first stop: Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey! The attraction is located inside the Hogwarts Castle and guests are asked to stow their belongings in a locker. The lockers were located inside the castle and created a lot of crowding on busy days. Universal has opened new lockers and expanded the gift shop where the lockers were once located!

Stopping into Ollivander’s, we got our hands on some really cool wands! This is Seraphina’s wand from Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

We also found Peter Pettigrew’s wand…

…and a wand that belonged to Gregorovitch!

And, take a look at the Quidditch collection at Filch’s Emporium of Confiscated Goods! You can choose to be a Keeper of your chosen house!

To pack all our goodies, we spotted new Harry Potter reusable bags today! The bags come in size small for $3 and large for $5.

After shopping, we headed to Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventures.  The physically-distanced line extended all the way into the closed theatre for The Eighth Voyage of Sindbad Stunt Show!

Once we got closer to the ride, we took a moment to take in the sights and sounds of the Forbidden Forest.

Then, we checked in on the construction for Velocicoaster in Jurassic Park. You can get a good view of the roller coaster from the back of The Three Broomsticks. The roller coaster is already testing runs and will open this summer!

Over at Universal Studios Florida, we stopped in for some ice cream at Diagon Alley…

We asked the wizard at Florean Fortescue's to pick our flavors — he chose salted caramel blondie and chocolate chili! pic.twitter.com/OZ09N3fE4A
