we stopped here on a visit to see my dad between Christmas and New Year's
paris?
brussels?
germany?
none of the above...
thanks to my generous dad, we were able to treat the kids to this place on our way to visit he and his wife in florida
so unlike us, really
to go off the path when we had such a short time to drive and visit...
a place with lines and crowds...
but these children of ours are growing up too fast
beginning to move towards the edge of our little nest
so we need to fly together now as much as possible...make as many together-memories as possible
for time? it's fleeting!
we visited Hogsmeade!
i've been funny about the kids reading the books...
spread them out so that they read the "darker" books when they were older
have had good discussions through the years about good vs evil,
about allegories (intentional or not),
the creative mind of JK Rowling...
about God
but back to Hogwarts and the town of Hogsmeade...
it was a magical and wonderful family time
rollercoasters & butterbeer!
an experience not to be forgotten
and one more memory tapestry for this mama bird
to add to our little nest
