Michael Douglas celebrated his amazing turn of health by taking his family to the happiest most magical place on Earth. 

Weeks after completing a devastating eight-week chemo and radiation treatment for throat cancer, Douglas looked healthier than he has in months as he hit Universal Orlando Resort over the weekend with Catherine Zeta-Jones and their kids in tow.

Douglas, wide-eyed and laughing, was Harry Potter obsessed, riding in the front of a roller coaster in the new Wizarding World. Read on for more about the outing...

Douglas and Zeta-Jones took Dylan, 10, and Carys, 7, to the resort and on Saturday, where they enjoyed the Flight of the Hippogriff ride. The Oscar-winning duo and their kids did the full Potter experience—at one point stopping to sample Butterbeer.

Afterwards, the Douglas clan got fitted for wands at Ollivanders and toured Hogwarts Castle, Universal spokeswoman Lindsey Mammen told E! News.

The loving family had previously spent Wednesday at Walt Disney World's Epcot Center. 

Doctors have given Douglas, 66, an 80 percent chance of survival
