What an amazing trip we had! We were treated like VIP's from the moment we arrived at Heathrow Airport, we had a special flight with Virgin where magic cocktails were made & wand tips were given onboard, along with receiving several goodies relating to the movie "Fantastic Beasts". We had a couple day free-time then Thursday morning involved a 3 hour coach-tour of NYC to show some of the places/buildings that inspired J K Rowling while making the movie - then on Thursday evening we got dressed up and made our way to Lincoln Center and were given our tickets for the movie. We had 15 minutes to walk the red carpet (which was actually black lol) and we got lots of great photos. Then we took our seats for the movie - J K Rowling entered and took her seat nearby and before the movie started all the main actors came up on stage!
It truly was a money-can't-buy, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that my daughter and I will remember forever! Thanks to Laks (private message already sent).
I LOVE my hobby!!!!!
