Last night, we went to the Kepler's midnight release party for the last book in the Harry Potter series. It was extraordinarily packed, with lots of activities for the HP fans. I enjoyed sitting back and observing all the little witches and wizards roaming around in a state of excitement - not to mention the many adults dressed up as Dementors, various Hogwarts Professors and numerous other characters from the books.It was all a little bittersweet, we had gone to the same release party 2 years ago - it was sad to think this was the last time we'd have the chance to participate in this particular phenomenon. After some inspiring performances in the HP Trivia Contest (those questions were HARD!), the witching hour came at 12:01 am.
By this time, there was a line of several hundred people, holding their golden tickets in hand, waiting to exchange them for the huge 759-page volume.We finally got ours and headed home - where Amara proceeded to stay up til 5 am reading it. Just like her mom ;)
