To begin the year with something fun, we travel to London UK to learn something new about Harry Potter. J. K. Rowling, the author, and Harry Potter share birth dates on July 31.
The houses of Harry Potter’s school, Hogwarts, were invented on an airplane sick bag while the author was traveling. Stephen Spielberg almost directed the first Harry Potter film.
The Harry Potter spells are in Latin. J. K. Rowling insisted that the actors in the Harry Potter movies be British and/or Irish.
More than 500 million copies of the Harry Potter books have sold worldwide; more than 180 million copies have sold in the U.S. alone. If all the Harry Potter books ever sold were placed end to end, they would go around the equator over 16 times. The books have been translated in 80 languages.
Harry Potter’s name is typed out 18,956 times throughout J.K. Rowling’s books. To watch all the Harry Potter movies, you need 1169 minutes.
This picture is taken at King’s Cross station where in the series Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry students catch the Hogwarts Express.
In the wizarding world, Harry and his friends get to the platform by dashing through a brick wall between platforms 9 and 10. Meanwhile, in the real King’s Cross, platforms 9 and 10 are separated by tracks, but you can find platform 9¾ on the wall in the station concourse.
It’s a new year. Dream big. Work hard. But most importantly remember that life is a journey not a destination. Turn on the light and have some fun.
