I have to admit it; I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan. I think the books are brilliantly written. J.K. Rowling has an amazing imagination and these books have provided alot of fun conversation in our household over the years as Connor has grown as fond of them as I am. When we moved to Germany Connor and I traveled to London the weekend the 4th movie was released to theatres worldwide. We saw it in the Odeon theater in Leister Square and thought it was so cool. Well, we found out the world premier of the 6th movie was going to be on July 7 in London in Leister Square in the Odeon Theater. There was a lot of research into this event and as tickets to attend the premier showing ran between 3-6 thousand poundes each we thought we wouldn't be able to do more than just hope for a view near the barricade if we went down on our own. As it turned out another opportunity presented itself. A small group of us from RAF Lakenheath bought a table at a VIP charity event which provided us with a private balcony viewing of all the red carpet activities. After we watched the red carpet arrivals we enjoyed our party before heading to the Vue cinema to see the movie one week before it would be released to audiences worldwide. The night was UNBELIEVABLE! I took Connor as an early Christmas present. It was Christmas in July and we had a BALL! We saw ALL the stars. We survived the worst downpour on record since 1865. (Apparently the rain ruined the Queen's garden party over at the palace as well.) The movie was really good, and I can't wait to see it again! So here are some pictures from the event. Connor and I are still pinching ourselves we had such a great time together.
