The City of Thunder Bay’s Winter FunDays are always a good time, but this weekend is of particular interest to me … it’s all about “The Boy Who Lived”, Harry Potter! On Sunday, from 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm at Prince Arthur’s Landing, the City, along with Willow Springs, are putting on a Harry Potter in the Winter themed treasure hunt! So much fun! What kind of wizarding wonders will we encounter? Find more info here on the Your Thunder Bay portion of our website.
I love the Harry Potter series. The movies are awesome but the books are really where it’s at for me. I can’t wait until my son is old enough to read them with me. If you are a reader, and you haven’t checked out the series because you think it’s for kids, or you’re not into fantasy stuff, I encourage you to give it a shot. I didn’t think I’d be into it and boy, was I wrong. It’s just a great world to escape in. The first couple of books lean more towards kids (which is fun) but the series really grows up with the characters.
A few of my friends love the books too. I always said that I would be Cedric Diggory, the handsome heroic type. My friend Savs insisted I would be Viktor Krum. I’m still personally insulted. Excuse me while I go drown my tears in a Butterbeer (Oh, how I wish!)
