Potter Parties

[Tonks]

Well I guess this is the last chance to tell what I did on Friday. I 
didn't need to stand in line to get a book. But we went to 3 different 
parties in 3 different towns. We dressed up, of course. And the first 
town was a dud, only 400 people. SO we drove 40 miles to a town where 
they turned the whole place into Diagon Alley and there were tons of 
people there. Good butterbeer too! It was vanilla soda with 
butterscotch flavoring added. Costume contest winner was 2 real babies 
in a pot with leave hats like Mandrakes.
 We ended back in our hometown at a local bookstore. Lots of folks 
there at almost midnight. I saw 2 cute kids dress up as Dobby and 
Winky. They had a local magician and lots of stuff going on.

It was really great!!

I am 20 pages from the end of the book.  It is 2:00AM. Depressing. 
Interesting. Truely amazing!! I know we are going to start arguing over 
it all later today.
