Yes, but the same was true for book 6:
There was no need to stick the wand in that hard,' he said gruffly,
clambering to his feet. 'It hurt.' (p 64)
A hole opened in the middle of all the tentacle like branches;
Hermione plunged her arm bravely into this hole, which closed like a
trap around her elbow; Harry and Ron tugged and wrenched at the
vines, forcing the hole to open again... (p 281)
Lupin burst out laughing. 'Sometimes you remind me a lot of James. He
called it my 'furry little problem'... (p 335)
'I dunno,' said Harry. 'Maybe it's better when you do it yourself, I
didn't enjoy it much when Dumbledore took me along for the ride.' (p 355)
'You see?' Dumbledore said quietly, holding his wand a little higher.
Harry saw a fissure in the cliff into which dark water was swirling.
'You will not object to getting a little wet?' 'No,' said Harry.
'Then take off your Invisibility Cloak... and let us take the plunge.' (p
556)
It was also interesting that everybody at school took it as a given
that Ginny would know if Harry had a tattoo of a dragon on his body
and where it was. I mean, those long "walks" with Ginny did seem to
make Harry VERY happy.
