NBC's The Today Show recently ran a preview of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter Theme Park, which you can see here in our video galleries. Also, the show is running a contest for a class trip to the amusement park: Teachers can visit the Today Show's Web site, fill out a form, and submit a video/DVD submission answering the question, "Why is my class extraordinary"? Winners get a two-night trip to the park and will participate in grand opening celebrations. Entries are due by 5 p.m. on March 26 and winners will be announced on the show.

Why does it have to be so far away? I live in the UK and am not good on long flights. I’m so jealous of all of you who will get to go.

What a wonderful preview they gave us! I cannot wait for the park to open so that we have freer media access to it.

This is SO exciting!! It’s such a shame for those of us who live in the UK and who probably will not get to go any time soon..

while i’m a teacher, i think i’d rather suffer the cruciatus curse than have to chaperon any of my classes to Florida…most of the kids are great but a few rotten apples ruin the whole bunch
