Visit Kings Cross Station to see platform 9 ¾ where Harry starts his journey to Hogwarts School of Wizardry. Don’t forget that the platform is not visible to Muggles! Take turns holding the handle of a baggage cart that British Rail has kindly cut in half and affixed to the wall — all the better to give the impression that it's disappearing into the magical alternative world where trains go to wizard school. Have that camera ready again as we approach the ‘Leaky Platform 9 3/4Cauldron’ and walk in the footsteps of Harry and Hagrin in the Victorian Leadenhall Market! Follow the route of the ‘Knight Bus’ around those little streets! Brockdale Bridge’ is in one piece and you can walk across it!

From your own "broom's eye" view atop the Eye, you'll be able to see many of the other notable London sights also featured in the climactic fly-over, including Big Ben, Parliament, Tower Bridge, and ¦Leadenhall MarketBuckingham Palace. Westminster Tube Station When traveling around London on "the Tube," make sure to stop at this gorgeously modern glass and steel underground station, which serves the Circle, District, and Jubilee lines and is one of the key locations Harry and Mr. Weasley (Ron's father) visit when traveling to a Ministry of Magic hearing. Also keep an eye out just down the road from the station for a red telephone booth near Scotland Yard that was used by the filmmakers as the secret entrance to the Ministry of Magic. Stay overnight in London. (CB)

We have time at leisure to explore this delightful town with its ancient houses and unusual crafts and antique shops. We end our day in the Roman city of Chester. No city in Britain is richer in archeological and architectural riches than Chester, and one of it's specialties is the "Rows", a double row of shops one on top of the other, dating from 1485. Romans arrived here in AD70, and Chester is riddled with Roman buildings and walls. Chester is the only English town still encircled by a medieval wall. (B)
