Default Why the theme park is in Orlando...
My Cherie Amour

The Harry Potter theme park alone would not be large enough, that is why it is one of the Islands of Adventure. That way a ticket into the entire park would cover this as well. Also, has anyone actually been to Orlando lately?? Loads and loads of folks from the UK are there because the exchange rate is over 2 british pounds to one dollar. Orlando is THE number one vacation spot for people from all over the world because it has Disney, Epcot, Seaworld, Universal, all the water parks, and is about one and a half hours east of Busch Gardens. So the Harry POtter theme park has a even more brilliant chance of thriving with it being located with the other attractions that pull folks from all over. I would travel anywhere to see it, ANYWHERE, but I see the appeal of a central Florida location and am grateful i live so close. On that note, I totally would not envy all the characters in their robes and layers of Hogwarts uniforms in our 98 degree heat in July and August....
