Really quickly.
Diagon is really quite something. Even without Gringotts, it is a sight to behold. So much to look at, so much to eat, so much to do... It is just wonderful. We had such a great time Friday. My sister got real emotional. She doesn't do that often. It caused a chain reaction amongst us, and we were swept up in the moment. It's just stunning. And that dragon... You are truly transported into that world. Universal hasn't just raised the bar with this (especially here in Orlando), they took the bar and beat other parks bloody with it. I love people's reaction to the dragon too. It's awesome when someone doesn't know it breathes fire. Lots of screams. There was a guy at one point who was telling his wife that the dragon should move. Then it breathed fire. Dude was like, "OK, I take it back." Hogwarts Express is quite fun too. Did it a bunch of times, but I probably wouldn't wait more than 20 minutes for it. It is more a convenience to not walk to the other park than anything else. Seriously though, more than 30 minutes, it's quicker to walk. Unless you want the experience. Overall, it's just stunning.
