On the Road

Universal Harry Potter! Hogmeade and Diagon Alley…. It’s a fan’s dream come true
I loved the attention to detail and being immersed in the world through the rides and setting. I would recommend going during the off season if you can! Less tourists!

Not having a washer/dryer in the apartment….

I only got to record this because my computer was taking hours to update… so… looking on the bright side!

  1. Check your rental agreement before you invest in an apartment washer/dryer. Even if the agreement doesn't address them, you may want to check with the landlord. Many landlords don't allow them, due to the potential water damage and noise.

    SF has been losing laundromats, the one across the street from me closed and now the closest is three blocks away, including one of the steepest, tallest hills in the city. Sigh. It really turns doing the laundry into the epic quest it has always felt like.

  2. Kitten WAW - We don't even have washer dryer hookups so there's no chance of getting one here. I'm just ready to move into a house with more space and a washer dryer! Our laundry facilities in the apartment are a quarter mile away so I understand completely! No SF hill here though!
