| | |  Gas leak at Wizarding World of Harry Potter
Yesterday afternoon a minor gas leak at the construction site for the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida, lead to a brief evacuation. At about 2pm the Lost Continent portion of the Islands of Adventure theme park was emptied of guests and the fire department were alerted, according to Tom Schroder, a spokesman for the park. The issue was resolved by quarter past the hour and normal service was resumed.
The themepark is scheduled to open next year. | |

It's a good thing that they got that under control quickly and that no one got hurt.

I bet the Dementors got into our entire world economy and into the World of Harry Potter and that's why we're all having such an awful time with alot of things... like all happiness had been sucked out...
Oh well, one more year until it opens!

I was thinking, while this was loading mega slowly, wouldn't it be freaky if there was a gas explosion?
Luckily, there wasn't  Good they managed to fix it so fast *nods*

good thing they got everything re-under control.
That could've been disastrous...
At least it wasn't.  | |
