The exhibition is fantastic and I would highly recommend it to any Harry Potter fan. The small boy was beside himself with excitement, and couldn't quite believe all the things he was getting to see.
Lucky for us, the gift shop had been restocked a couple of days before we visited so we left with a marauder's map, a couple of wands, t shirts, chocolate frogs and some Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans. After encountering a soap flavored jelly bean, closely followed by an earthworm one, I left them to the kids.
We also went by the QVB to see the Swarovski Crystal Christmas tree, which was beautiful, and Santa's Grotto. The kids were keen to visit Santa but a two hour wait was a bit much.
A visit to Books Kinokuniya was also on the agenda - easily the biggest and most impressive book store I have ever seen.
We also stopped off to visit my cousin - head chef at Zumbo's new patisserie at Star Sydney.
The macaroons were heavenly.
We ended a very long day with a visit to the Christmas Carols in the Domain. There was a huge crowd so we couldn't see the stage from where we sat, but the kids had a lovely time.
Not a bad start to the school holidays really. Of course, now we have seen the Harry Potter exhibition, the countdown to Christmas is well and truly back on.
