There was one thing on my husbands list when it came to going to Orlando and that was a visit to Kennedy Space Center. I therefore left it for him to sort out tickets and he seemed to think it was “a very reasonable price.” That was, however, until we looked at going when we […]

Day 11: Hollywood Studios
When it came to booking fast passes for today, the only ones I could get were late (4pm onwards) for Hollywood Studios. As it turned out, this worked well as it meant we could have a lazy morning by the pool. We decided that we would head in after lunch in order to see the […]
[AD] Refreshing My Winter Wardrobe #ACEWinterRefreshChallenge
It is no good. There is no denying the fact that summer is long gone! This weekend, I have done the swap over of clothes. Goodbye pastel pinks and 3/4 length trousers. Hello warm snuggly jumpers and thick black tights. At the beginning of the year I got a bit obsessed with Mari Kondo on […]
Disney Diary Day 10: Typhoon Lagoon And Kobe
Today we decided to have a “rest day.” When I say rest, what I mean is a slightly later start and a trip to a water park. This time it was Typhoon Lagoon. I had deliberately chosen to do Typhoon Lagoon after Blizzard Beach as general consensus on Facebook was that this was the better […]
Disney Diary Day 9: Universal Studios And Islands Of Adventure
As we had started Day 4 at Universal Studios, our plan for today was to start in Islands of Adventure. Specifically, to ride Spiderman before the queue hit an hour. Of course, our plan went to pot here when Spiderman was shut for technical reasons! We therefore decided that we would head towards the Jurassic […]
Disney Diary Day 8: Clearwater Beach
Today we decided to head to the coast. Last night we booked a 1pm slot on Little Toot for a dolphin tour. General recommendations seem to be for Little Toot and the Sea Screamer. We left just gone 8am and arrived around 11. We parked by the boat tours where we got a parking for […]
Disney Diary Day 7: Rest Day
Today has been a much needed rest day. The boys have mainly wanted to sit and play on their i pads in the villa. They did managed to have a quick play in the pool earlier. Middle man was keen to go back to Winter Summerland Golf to have a go at the winter course. […]
Disney Diary Day 6: The Magic Kingdom
We arrived at the magic kingdom bright and early and I had totally forgotten that you needed to use the monorail or ferry to get to the park. As it was so early there wasn’t a ferry around so we got in another queue for the monorail. As we entered the park, there were a […]
Day 5: Epcot and Winter Summerland Golf
After the fun at Universal, in hindsight we should have probably have had a rest day. However, with fast passes for Epcot we headed there. Epcot is very different from the other parks. Very spread out. We got in after the longest bag check line ever and test track was at an hour wait. We […]
Disney Diary Day 4: Universal Studios And Island of Adventures
If you are a ride fan that loves Harry Potter then Universal may well be more magical than Disney in Orlando.
