Hogwarts!

I am probably the last person on earth to see Harry Potter!  I had resisted the series for years, but for no particular reason.  Given that much of the series was filmed in the UK, and many of the Hogwarts scenes were filmed at (or inspired by) Oxford, I figured I should go ahead and see the movies. I'm on the first film right now, and enjoying it!  The dining hall of Hogwarts was recreated based on the dining hall of Christ Church at Oxford.  Also, the Bodleian Library at Oxford, where I'll be studying, was used for Hogwarts scenes, as well.   I will definitely be a Gryffindor, not a Slytherin.  ;)
