It's finally here. In under 2 days I will be leaving for the awesome geek-fest that will be Infinitus, the latest Harry Potter Con from HPEF. It's my first one and I've been planning for just over a year now. It's been so long in coming, that it's hard to beleive it's actually here. Infinitus will run from Thursday the 15th till Sunday the 18th at Universal Studio's Royal Pacific resort. Why Universal? For the Wizarding World of Harry Potter of course. The new HP themed 'park' at Islands of Adventure. I've treated this park as I would any new Potter release and done my best to avoid photo's and reviews so as to remain un-spoiled prior to that moment when I finally set foot in 'Hogsmeade'. The fact that this will happen after-hours and exclusivly with fellow fans makes it all the more magical.
This will also be my first major solo trip. I have flown alone before (in fact that was my first flight ever) and made the odd jaunt to nearby Toronto to meet-up with friends, but this cross-border adventure involving two buses, a flight, and a shuttle is rather a larger undertaking. It'll be nice to decide for once how I want to spend my vacation days entirely without input (apart from the Con. schedule of course). To mark this occasion and what will hopefully become a tradition of travel and adventure I purchased this gorgeous leather travel wallet from Danier.
Originally $49, I returned a week later and picked it up on-sale for almost half that. I love the bright blue colour which is summery and fun and will also make it easy to spot in my bag. Inside are divider tabs for passport, tickets, and other documents as well as a zipped pocket for money and another slot for my boarding pass.
The inside is lined in yellow making it just as sunny as the exterior. I know I'll only be using it for a short time durring the trip, but I'm so excited about it.
I promise to get plenty of photo's and may even update from Orlando.
