Puking Pastilles at the Harry Potter Studio Tour!!

For Christmas my sister and I got tickets to go to the Harry Potter Studio Tour near London. After weeks of waiting we finally got to go! It was absolutely amazing!! You got to see all the effort that had to go into the films, even if it was for props that just appeared on screen for a fraction of a second. Every piece of set, costume and prop were the ones used in the films.
You could walk along Diagon Alley and this picture is of the 'Puking Pastilles' girl in Fred and George's joke shop! The sick was going round and round so it looked really funny.
Other highlights were going in the Great Hall which was giant and extremely detailed. It looked so real but it turned out it was all made of fibreglass!
They used lots of tricks such as perspective corridors that looked like full sized corridors in the film but were only just big enough to go in!
We also saw the Dursley's house which was also fake and had no rooms in it! You could buy butter beer and it was delicious!
Obviously a lot of green screening was used for broomstick scenes and we got to do some. We went on broomsticks and a car which were in the ground and it filmed you and as you were on it you could see the video of yourself but pasted onto a new background!
At the end of the tour was a scale 1:24 model of Hogwarts with every single detail on it. It was absolutely incredible and a great way to finish the tour.
