An Excursion to the Old World

I am a student at the University of Toronto (Canada), going on what was once called "the Grand Tour" -- a trip around the whole of Northern Europe (and, perhaps, in the near future, Southern Europe as well). My parents and I should be spending about 3 months on our tour. I hope you will enjoy reading about my experiences, and feel free to suggest places to go (or pictures to take).

Sorry for the slightly blurry picture, but here I am standing by the door of the same room.



For those of you who haven't guessed yet -- this is the infirmary of Hogwarts school. That's the door which Dumbledore walks through, to see Harry in the first movie (and also in the third movie).

So, most of you have actually probably seen the Bodleian Library, closer up than my parents and I managed, on the tour.

The Old Bodleian Library is where the scene with "Harry in the Restricted Section" was shot (in the first Harry Potter Movie).

Thinking about it -- Considering how much we paid to merely glance at the library, I wonder how much the Harry Potter filmakers had to pay to film in there. Posted by Picasa
