Just a little bite…

Our trip for 2020 has officially disappeared – no hotel reservation showing up in our MyDisneyExperience App, no dining reservations, no park days booked – nothing! Nothing at all! Sigh. But during the next couple of weeks as we piece it all back together those reservations will reappear – but for 2021! Such is life […]

What a week it’s been…and its only Wednesday!

Now first things first, it’s Wednesday – home of the mini mid-week blog, but this weekend’s blog may or may not happen as it’s Rob’s birthday. So weather gods permitting, we aim to be on a nice stroll or sitting in our garden in the sunshine sipping something cool and possibly alcoholic on Saturday instead […]

News, reviews and rumours

It’s been one of those weeks this week. Nothing going on for weeks, loads of rumours and possibilities and more questions than answers and then – boom! – Disney drops the news everyone’s been waiting for about the new park booking system. This new system is completely new to WDW and it’s to try and […]

Out and about part 2…

So, we all know what’s going on in and around the parks at the moment with the post-COVID openings, so we are not going to dwell on it too much as it’s been covered by LOADS of folks “on the ground” in Orlando in this last week and we also covered the pertinent points in […]

Hope Springs…

Hey folks. We hope everyone is ok. It’s been a bit of a mad week hasn’t it?? We’ve had a flurry of emails from different airlines telling us that they are starting flying again. We are not saying anything else in case we jinx it! You will have read our adventures in Fast Passes and […]

Roller Coaster of a week. ..

This week has very literally been like being on a roller coaster! Up, down, dead end, go backwards, delighted squeals, panic, and a slightly funny tummy! We started off with all of the good news and positivity of the Orlando attractions and theme parks getting back into action and starting to reopen. Of course we […]

Fast track to fastpasses..

Fast track to Fastpasses. So today its Tuesday 26th May, so that can only mean one thing, for us it’s the opening of the 60 day Fastpass+ window. We don’t actually know yet what’s happening with our holiday, we’ve made numerous calls to Dial-a-Flight, Holiday Inn in Orlando and Virgin, BUT no one knows what’s […]

Our week, news,views, cooking and Fastpasses

In a week when things get exciting and more positive Stateside, news for international travel this week has not been so positive and so it’s been a week of mixed emotions. As we reported in our midweek blog Disney Springs and Universal’s City Walk have both reopened, following social distancing rules and health guidelines, and […]

We don’t often do a mini mid-week blog at the moment – things are difficult everywhere and whilst we are remaining positive and upbeat, it’s always on our mind that our trip this summer will probably be postponed. We are keeping positive by talking about and laughing and enjoying our many many previous visits to […]

Odds and ends…

We hope everyone is well? It’s been a few mad and nerve wracking weeks all over the planet, hopefully we are seeing better times ahead. (Fingers crossed!) This week’s blog is inspired in part by the lovely folks at the Duo podcast. Their latest one had me thinking whilst I was walking and listening to […]
