I thought for sure they'd be sold out, with it being the last book and all. I went to the mall today, and walked by a bookstore and they were selling them 30% off, so I scooped up my copy... just in time for my long plane trip to Cabo! :)

I still need to see the movie, but I'm totally pumped for it. That's on my to-do list when I get back.

I guess there were people shouting out spoilers and crap before we got there. good thing cuz I would be pissed big time if someone ruined my harry potter experience. hehe I'm on chapter 16 and I'm so sad cuz it's so good and I don't want to finish it but i can't put it down... hahah

Wow, I would have been really pissed if I heard someone yelling spoilers! Good thing you missed that.

 

I'm trying to keep the book for the plane ride, but it's sooooo hard! lol. I started reading it last night, I'm about 100 pages in and trying to resist the urge to read it until Sunday! It's pure torture!

I too love these books!

 

I was actually "lucky" enough to work at a book store during the release of boox 6 (the second last one). What an INSANE experience. It was busier than Christmas Eve. The store I worked at went all out though. We had a magician walking the aisles, a palm-reader set up in the travel section, and different craft stations set up to coordinate with the stores on Diagon Alley (wand making at Olivander's wand shop, free treats at The Leaky Cauldron, etc.), and everyone working was dressed up as a character from the book.

 

For the last book, I wasn't working at the store anymore, but I had to stop by to see what they had set up this time around. It was just as crazy, but definitely an experience worth being a part of...and yes, I waited around until midnight to pick up my copy. I then proceeded to read the book and was finished by two a.m the next day (Sunday) embarrest.gif

I love HP!!! I have done the midnight thing for the movies AND book each time. This year was the longest line though. I finished the book the evening I got it ..got it as 12: something and finished that evening around 7. Now I have sucked my FI and he is actually next to me on book number 4. Hahahah. I have to say I love the books much more than the movies though!

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
