About some time has passed now, Halloween has come and gone, and November
was nearly over. Harry, Ron, and Hermione were in the Gryffindor common
room playing Monopoly. Amanda gave it to Hermione as an early Christmas
gift; she bought it on her most recent trip to see her family members in
Virginia, a state in America.
"So why the heck is Amanda in England if she lives in America?" Ron picked at Hermione "Don't they have a nice Wizarding school there? I mean, MERLIN is the headmaster!! I would go there in a heartbeat! But I don't know a single thing about America." "Well maybe you should start studying, we are going on a "field trip" as professor McGonagle calls it to there in April, and we are going to study the way they handle being around muggles 24-7 without giving away that they are wizards. If you two even payed a speck of attention in class you would know!" by then they had given up monopoly and for their discussion on America. Harry finally spoke up "I've been on a field trip before, in year two at primary school. It was to the Little Winging aquarium." Then he looked down somewhat embarrassed "Dudley pushed me into the stingray tank that we were looking at from above, surprisingly they didn't hurt me or anything, and I even landed on top of the most dangerous one, it seemed like they were trying to help me out of the water. Turns out that Dudley was the one who got in trouble this time, security guard was about 8 feet away when he saw Duds do it! Haha, he got in big trouble, only time I've ever seen the Dursleys yell at 'im. It was funny while it lasted!! He pouted like the baby he is for a month because his parents wouldn't let him go to the pool, of course if Dudley wasn't allowed, I couldn't go swimming either. Doesn't matter, seems like I got my share of the water that week."
"Well the only baby on this field trip" Hermione spoke up after they finished laughing at that "will be Draco!" "Oh no!" Ron spoke up "America's doomed then!" they talked and laughed some more, packed up the long forgotten Monopoly game, and went to bed. But none of them noticed the owl with a letter to Harry pecking at the window.....
