This doesn't sound like Azkaban, the MoM, or St. Mungo's -- it sounds like
another dimension.

I have seen on the BBC's Newsround website (for those non-Brits,
Newsround is like a children's version of the news) that JKR has
revealed that Harry is to visit somewhere in Book 5 that we have read
about but that we haven't been to yet.

They are betting that she means Azkaban, or possibly the Ministry of
Magic, but it got me thinking...

I can't see why Harry would go to Azkaban - surely no matter what
awful things might happen in OoP he's still just a child and won't be
sent there (as is =made= to go there) or be imprisoned?  And by the
same token surely he wouldn't want to visit the place voluntarily,
(unless he is trying to overcome his fear of Dementors?) - can anyone
think of anybody he'd want to go and see, unless (GASP!) Sirius is
caught!!!! (I'm thinking out loud as I type here, as you can probably
tell...)

Overall, I think I would like to see him visit the Ministry of Magic,
or perhaps St Mungos with Neville to see the Longbottoms - I'd like
the troika's friendship with Neville to strengthen as he needs a
friend and Harry has just found out a lot of upsetting stuff about
him.

Anyone else got any thoughts on all this?
