All Aboard the Hogwarts Express!



Today we went on the Jacobite, which is the train that goes from Fort William up to a little fishing village named Mallig. This is the same train that Harry takes to Hogwarts, and we felt like we were heading to our next year at school. They only have a couple of compartments like to ones that the students use in the movies and we got one. We definately felt like we were in it. Here are Linda and I on the train (Hermione just reminded us we were almost to Hogwarts so we have our costumes on). Tonight we are headed into the Forbidden Forest, which should be a little spooky. Not super scary, mind you, as it will not be extra dark. It does not get dark here until about 10:45pm!

Dad & I have been following your adventures and this HP part sounds fabulous. Good thing you & Linda had your wands at the ready. It would have been a long walk without magic.
How far is Fort William from Edinburgh? I've never heard of Fort William. Is it a small town? Very few residents?
I can't wait to talk to you!

Watch out for Aragog in the forest!
