The castle was massive. That was the only thing that Albus could think of. He had never seen something so beautiful and unassuming that was also so large. It seemed impossible that the muggles did not see it. Magic truly surprised him even at times. All around him witches and wizards of different ages rushed to the now open doors. Albus stepped out into the cool air. A tall man the size of a giant with a voice as loud as a fog horn was yelling at the first years to get into the boats. Albus decided that the man must be Hagrid. His father had told him so many stories about the kind walked up to one of the boats about to get in. Hagrid walked up to him and placed his large hand on Albus's shoulder.
"You must be 'Arry's boy. You look just like 'im. Only your eyes look like Ginny's. 'Arry said yer name was Albus. Pleased to meet yeh."
Hagrid stuck out his free hand. Albus took it lightly. He was still a bit intimidated by this man, even if his dad prasied him heartily.
"Hello. Er, yes, my dad has told me much about you. He said you were the professor of the Care of Magical Creatures."
