The Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban film may already be fading from the forefront of fans' minds -- turning instead to Goblet of Fire and book six -- but for the fans who actually lived and breathed Potter in England last month, memories of a lifetime will live much longer.
Friends of the Phoenix, a new site dedicated to supporting Harry Potter fans, is hosting a written report
of the magical HP Fan Trips
2004 tour. From the planning stage, to a trip on the "Hogwarts Express" #5972 steam locomotive, to the farewell feast -- all is documented in the report. Videos and hundreds of pictures will be posted in the coming days, contributed by many of the participants.
Fans who weren't able to attend this year's tour (or didn't hear about it in time) will be happy to learn HP Fan Trips is currently organizing their 2005 package. Stay tuned to your favorite HP fan sites for future details.

Good for the rest of us who cannot attend the convention due to various geographical locations to have reports and pictures such as these.
I, about 99.99%, will not be able to see the 2005 convention either, but please keep us all informed with your reports. Thanks a lot.

That's excellent! Haha, so I can read and see every thing they did without paying thousands of dollars? How cool is that?
I know I'll have to make a big decision next year though... It's either visit Italy, France and England with the French Club or just go to England with HP Fan Trips.

This looks like it was a lot of fun, and provided a truly memorable experience. I hope to be able to go one year. Maybe the year book 7 comes out.
