This morning we went to the Warner Brothers studio near Watford Junction. We all awoke early and ran to catch the train to Watford Junction. Once we had boarded the train, we ran into our Oak Lodge
friends who were riding the same scheduled train. We continued on to Watford Junction where we caught the "311" Harry Potter Bus to the Harry Potter Studios. Once inside, everyone was amazed by the detail and imagination of movie designers. We were awed by the special effects and animatronics.

After touring the Harry Potter studios, we returned to the hotel to change into more comfortable clothes and then headed to Oak Lodge School for a barbecue with the residential students. Oak Lodge students and staff served us a wonderful meal of hamburgers, chicken, hot dogs paired with a wide variety of vegetable items including red cabbage slaw, mozzarella/tomato slices, cucumbers and salads. After supper we played football and Hangman before departing back to the hotel for the evening.
