Firsts

Hi Everyone

I have been reflecting over the last few weeks and realised I have had many of my firsts recently.

My trip to disney saw lots of firsts - first trip on/in a plane, boat, taxi, bus, train, monorail and attraction ride. My first meeting with Mickey Mouse. My first time in a hotel and in a whirlpool bath :)

I also cut my first (& second) tooth while I was away and they are growing rapidly.

I watch my first thankgiving parade on thursday (well some it as I missed half because I went to sleep) and had I celebrated it on Saturday with my first Pyjama day with movies and turkey dinner.

Yesterday I clapped for the first time while Mummy was out at her crop. I did show her when she got home and Daddy hadn't told her so it was a nice surprise. I have shown her I can do it again this morning - it is quite cool as people clap back! Mummy took this photo as I was doing it. I have now worked out I should smile at the camera.

What other firsts will I do in the upcoming weeks I wonder? Mummy keeps telling me about this thing called Christmas - she seems very excited so I guess it must be good (although with my Mummy who knows!!!!). She says a man called Santa or Father Christmas will visit and bring presents if I am good - Of course I am always good, naughty is not in my vocabulary!!!

On that note I shall sign off and play before getting dressed.

Brrrrrr - not a warm welcome home

Well we are back and boy was the temperature a shock to the system. Mummy and Daddy knew it wasn't going to be nice when we arrived back but they really felt the cold after enjoying temps in the high 70's - low 80's! They had dressed me nice and warm so it wasn't so bad for me!!
After packing the cases and leaving the room and view for the last time our day on Friday was spent in the Magic Kingdom. I was feeling a bit dopey as my cough had turned into a cold and I wasn't wanting to eat very much. Mummy knew just the thing to get me to eat - a trip to Main Street Bakery! I shared a croissant with Daddy (well I let Daddy have a little bit!!!) and Mummy was a piggy and ate a whole cinnamon bun on her own. Mummy and Daddy took me to Tommorrowland and we travelled on the Tomorrowland Transportation Authority PeopleMover around Tomorrowland and then we went to watch Carousel of Progress. I didn't really "get" the whole carousel of progress thing but Mummy and Daddy said it was very important as Walt Disney Designed and built the for the New York World's Fair back in the 60's and it won lots of awards and it was the start of many of the attractions I have been on during my stay. Mummy was singing the tune in my ear (not annoying at all Mummy!!!!) and told me it was written by the Shermann brothers whoever they are. Apparently I will be getting to know their music in the coming days as Mummy and Daddy brought a double CD of it while we were away!

After lunch I fell asleep and woke up stopped on the main street sidewalk and along walked the Dapper Dan's. They are a barber shop quartet and they stopped to sing Christmas songs to us. It was cool and well timed as we hadn't seen them properly during our stay. Just as they were finishing their 3rd Christmas song and announcement came that the parade was on its way and the music started. I love the Parade the music is fun and all the characters talk and wave to me. The Princess' even blow me kisses.

When the parade had gone it was time to leave the magic for the last time and head back to the resort to get ready for our trip to the airport. Terry picked us up in his smart SUV. He was showing it to us for our next trip when we planned to take Grandma and Granddad with us as it has plenty of seats and luggage room. I think it was because our luggage didn't fit in his town car properly when he picked us up lol. Check in was pain free and security checks were not as bad as the media are making them out to be there as there were no full body scanners. Unfortunately the stroller broke at the airport so Mummy had to carry me around to the gate. The good thing was there was not much waiting time at the airport and as I am under 2 we were allowed to board before the others (they do these things right in America!!).

We touched down back in Gatwick at 9am yesterday morning. It was a pleasant flight and I slept for the majority of it but on Mummy not in the Sky cot. I didn't think too much of the sky cot - it didn't give me room to move in my sleep like I like to do. Also we had some turbulence and I had to be strapped to Mummy when the seat belt signs were on which was quite a long time. I think she quite like it really as I was like a hot water bottle keeping her warm!!

We then had our car journey home which I slept through mostly. We had a couple of stops and Mummy drove the last part of the way as Daddy's eyes had had enough. I was pleased to be back in our house as the toys Mummy couldn't pack were here - I had missed my cookie jar and walker. I was a little grumpy and slept on and off until 1am so Mummy stayed up with me (after getting an hours nap between 7 and 8pm. Mummy used the time to start catching up on Strictly Come Dancing and It takes two with Claudia - she makes me laugh.

Today I really am grumpy and whingey. My cold has really come out and it is cold and miserable weather. We went for lunch at Grandma and Granddad's - it was nice to see them again and I got to eat some of the veg and chicken from the roast dinner :) I have had enough of this jarred food - I want proper food now like Mummy and Daddy so Mummy will need to get busy in the kitchen (and not just making cakes and biscuits!!!!).

I hope you have enjoyed reading about my trip as much as I enjoyed being there and writing about my adventures. I did many new things on the trip and it has been nice to document them in this way for years to come. I do plan to carry on writing this blog but I plan it to be more weekly than daily as Mummy limits the time I am allowed on the computer and really everyday life is nowhere near as exciting as time in the magic of Disney.

I look forward to telling you about my latest adventures again soon.

Last Entry Before I Return Home

Today was our last proper day here in the happiest place on earth - I can't believe it has gone so quickly :(

Although I miss people back home I really like it here and having both Mummy and Daddy with me all day. I have made lots of new friends - in fact I keep bumping into Mickey - he seems to get everywhere!!!!!

Today we went to Animal Kingdom. Again we were on the hunt for photos for our CD (we are going to get it tomorrow apparently so perhaps all these photographers will leave me alone then!). We went to Camp Minnie Mickey on a adventure trail and found Goofy, Donald, Chip n Dale, Minnie and Mickey. They were in their Christmas outfits and Goofy laughed when I told him my Granddad had a beard like him. I hit Minnie in the eye I was so excited and she laughed when Mummy said I mustn't bang Minnie in the head or she would get a headache. I really will miss all of these characters the toy versions just don't have the same effect.

We left Animal Kingdom and traveled to Epcot. We tracked down the real Duffy Bear (mine was in the apartment keeping cool and resting ;)) and I got to have a cuddle and another picture. Daddy then found Donald Duck again who was dressed in a Mexican hat this time - he doesn't half get around and changed quickly!! This ended up being the last picture of the day and possibly the last for our CD. We will have over 170 pics on the CD when it is done :o Mummy will have a lot of scrapbooking to do!!

It was then home with the intention of going to see the Osbourne Family Lights this evening but we didn't get there so that is something we will have to see another time when we come here.

I am off to get some sleep now and will not blog again until I am back at home in the rain and cold (the weather is something else I shall miss when we leave).

I look forward to seeing you all next week if not before

Love

Meeting Mickey again :D

Howdy folks.

I had a very restful start to the day today. We all chilled in our apartment for the morning which was nice. Mummy and I had a little swim (well it is wednesday;)) and then I slept for 2.5 hours.

After some lunch we set off for the day. We went to the Magic Kingdom Bus station and then caught a boat to Wilderness Lodge. Unfortunately it was a wasted journey as their christmas decorations are not up yet and we were to late for lunch in the restaurant we wanted to eat in. Oh well I have now travelled on a boat for the first and second time :)

We headed into Magic Kingdom when we got onto dry land and got Mummy and Daddy some lunch ( a rather over priced meal for what it was with an annoying waitress we had to tip!) and then headed to the Judges Tent. After a relatively short queue we were taken into the judging room and then I saw Mickey and Minnie Mouse! I got sooooooo excited I nearly jumped out of Mummy's arms. As you can see I was a very good girl smiling for the photographer. I then decided to give mickey a kiss (which is to like his nose in my world).

After this excitement we went on the train around to Frontierland where we went to watch the country bears Jambouree. As with the other shows I have been to see I fell asleep - it is all Mummy and Daddy's fault for playing the music when I go to bed!!

It did give me a chance to re-energize as Mummy and Daddy were planning on us staying to watch the Main Street Electrical Parade and the fireworks show Wishes. I liked the electrical parade it was cool music and thousands of coloured lights. I was not worried at all by the fireworks either. I know the music very well as I hear it quite often at home but the bangs of the fireworks were nothing to worry about - I really didn't understand why some children were crying.

It was then home on a packed bus and I am now ready to go to bed.

Tomorrow is our last proper day and night here before we have to head home so I am going to try and get in a few things we haven't done yet and Mummy and Daddy want a few more pics for that CD!!!

I hope you are all managing to stay dry and safe in the weather you have back there. I won't mention how perfect the weather is here ;) I will try to bring some of it back with me but no promises.

Love

2 days in 1 post

Hi all

Sorry for the double post but yesterday (Monday) I was feeling a little bleugh. My teeth were playing up (one came through on the plane and the other is coming through as I type!!!) and so I wasn't feeling my best.

The room was due to be cleaned and so we had to go out, so we had a couple of hours in Magic Kingdom where I traveled with pirates and listened to the glee club in the Tiki room (well I listened to half of it before falling asleep).

We then went to the Grand Floridian by monorail to see the giant gingerbread Christmas house. It is so detailed and made of proper edible gingerbread! It doubles as a shop selling gingerbread products. Mummy and Daddy have always wanted to see this as it is only up for Christmas and so this was their first chance.

From the Grand Floridian Resort, we went home to Saratoga Springs and chilled out and I had an early night.

After a really good nights sleep I woke up feeling much better and happier today :D I even ate a whole packet of "Paw Ridge" for breakfast which is totally unheard of!!

We were on a secret mission (Kate and Oscar, Mummy says secret mission complete and totally worth it!!!!!!;)) for a large chunk of the morning and then we popped to the Contempory Resort to see if their gingerbread display was completed. They were still putting it together so we will have to pay them another visit! We did stop there for some lunch before boarding the monorail to the Magic Kingdom. As I was feeling so much better I was able to do lots more there today. I travelled in honey pots with Winnie the Pooh (Harvey I gave him a hug for you ;)), visited a haunted mansion, traveled around its a small world again, saw a parade, watched another flag retreat ceremony and visited Minnie Mouse's House. I had lots of pictures taken with characters including princesses and Winnie the Pooh plus the classic in front of the castle shots. Most of these were taken by Disney photographers and so I don't have many pictures of this to show you yet as we are going to buy them all at the end of the week before we leave (you can get them all on a CD with full rights to do whatever you want with them and Mummy and Daddy are making sure they get value for money before they get it done ;)) Just as we got to the front of the queue for a christmas shot to be taken I fell asleep and so Mummy and Daddy brought me home without the shot being taken!! Apparently I have to go back tomorrow to get that picture.

After my tea we went to downtown Disney for Mummy and Daddy to eat and then it was home to bed as I am a very tired little girl. Of course I had to write this blog first. I will add photos in the morning as my eyes are closing as I write this.

I hope that you are all well back in the UK.

Smile Baby

This is what I heard all morning yesterday. Mummy and Daddy took me to EPCOT and we queued to meet the fab 5. It was a long wait for a little girl but I survived and got very excited when I saw Mickey Mouse was at the end of the queue. Lots of people around me were saying how cute I was.

Queuing is tiring work and so I fell asleep almost as soon as I had finished with the photos. When I woke up we went for a nice icecream that I shared with Mummy. Daddy had a rootbeer float which is a true american drink.

I had my first disney Kids meal which was baked chicken leg with apple sauce for pudding. It was yummy and I liked eating big girl food with Mummy and Daddy :)

After lunch I helped sort trash and drive a trash cart - I liked helping to push the cart and pressing the pickup and drop button to sort the trash. I continually pressed it and so I don't think I was a lot of help as I was picking it up and dropping it back down straight away :D

Mummy and Daddy decided that I should go back to the apartment for a proper sleep as I was getting a little crabby. The bus took AGES to arrive which did not help my mood and by the time we got off the bus at our building I was begining to have a mini meltdown.


There was a cool person on the bus - Lou Mongello of WDWradio.com and his family were travelling with us. Mummy and Daddy listen to his podcast and have some of his books. Mummy recognised his children before he got on the bus and he smiled at me a couple of times. I sent him a message on Twitter to say thanks for the smile.

After 2 hours sleep I had my tea on the balcony looking at the view and then we went to Downtown Disney to get some of the shopping to take home. Mummy and Daddy got some christmas bits and apparently Santa was watching and chose a gift for me :) Mummy also got some cool cookie cutters so we can make sugar cookies and gingerbread Men with mickey ears when I am bigger :)

We are off to do some rides at Magic Kingdom today and Mummy is booking a secret mission which I cant tell anyone about - Mummy says if I do I shall ruin someone's future suprise shhhhhh!

Meeska, Mouska Mickeeeeeeey Mouse!!

Hola everyone

Yesterday I went to Disney's Hollywood Studios. It was a bit of a mind blowing experience!

The first thing I had to do was have my photo taken with the mischevious duo Chip and Dale (or Tic and Tac if you are in France so Mummy told me!) I was quite happy until Chip touched me - do they not know you do not touch the baby?!! Chip blamed Dale's face but it was definitely the touching that did it!

Next I went and said Hola to Handy Manny who was walking around the park. I was not sure I really wanted to talk to him especially as he did not have his trusty tools with him but I humored Mummy and Daddy and had my photo taken. I couldn't do Toy Story Midway Mania as the queue was and hour long and Mummy and Daddy refuse to queue longer than half and hour even for this, one of their favorite rides!

I went under the sea then to watch the Legend of the Little Mermaid followed by a talk about animation which I fell asleep through. When I woke up we went and saw a show in 3D by some strange creatures called the Muppets. Mummy and Daddy seemed to like these strange creatures and everyone thought the show was funny - Daddy seemed to know the script as he was saying the punchlines before the Muppets did. I think that he is really Fozzy Bear as his jokes are bad too!!! I didn't see the point of the glasses as you can see - eating them seems like a much better option!

My favorite part of the day was watching Playhouse Disney Live. All the gang (except Pluto) from The Mickey Mouse Clubhouse was there and we were putting on a surprise party for Minnie. To help Donald, Daisy and Goofy with their tasks for the party we listened to stories and sang songs from Handy Manny and his tools, Derby, Winnie the Pooh and Tigger from My Friends Tigger and Pooh and The Little Einsteins. I enjoyed the dancing and bouncing we had to do.

Finally I queued to have my photo taken with Lotso (Lots o Hugs Bear) from Toy Story 3. He is a pink bear that smells of strawberries!!!! The strawberry smell must have had an effect on me as I fell asleep again and so Mummy and Daddy decided to go back to the apartment. I had tea and got changed and we went to EPCOT to get Mummy and Daddy's tea. I tried Egg Fried Rice for the first time as Mummy had Shrimp Fried Rice (I didnt have any shrimps!) - it was yummy but when I had enough I decided that Mummy had too and tipped the plate upside down :D Rice went everywhere - remember that one Oscar, Harvey, Amelie and Seren it's funny ;) Luckily Mummy had near enough finished.

It was then time to come home and go to bed.

I am really enjoying my time here - there is soooo much for me to see and learn from. Everyone says what a happy little girl I am - how can I not be in the happiest place on earth with my Mummy and Daddy for company!

Well signing off for another day

Lots o Hugs from me to you

Mmmmmm Ice Cream

Jambo everyone (that's Swahili for Hello :))

Today we went to Animal Kingdom. It is the furthest park from our resort with a 30min bus trip which I didn't really want to do this morning and I fell asleep on the way there. As we were yet again later than mummy and daddy had planned and I was asleep they decided to have an early lunch at Flame Tree BBQ. They shared some BBQ ribs and a pulled pork roll. I had woken up by the time they sat to eat and got to try some of the pulled pork. I didn't mind the taste but was unsure of the texture but I ate a fair bit for a little girl.

I then got to go on a train to Rafiki's Conservation Station where I got to see a snake up close and personal as well as donkey's, goat's, a tortoise, sheep, a Llama and a cow. By then it was time for ice cream. Mummy wont let me have very much or have it very often but boy it is good stuff. This one was in the shape of Mickey's head and as you can see it got a little messy for me and Mummy!

If I hadn't had a mini melt down after 30 seconds of queuing, we would have gone to see Finding Nemo the Musical next but Mummy and Daddy decided it would be better to give it a miss so we went to play some fairground games in Dinoland. Mummy was rubbish and didn't win me anything!!!!

We headed home and after finishing this blog I am going to sleep. Who knows where Mummy and Daddy will take me while I am asleep tonight.

Hope everyone at home is OK.

My First Parade

Today we chilled a little first thing and then we went to Downtown Disney. We were supposed to be going for breakfast but it ended up being lunch! We went to Wolfgang Puck's Cafe and Mummy and Daddy really enjoyed their meals. They say it is always good food from there.

After a wonder around the Lego store - lots of colours and people to look at there, we headed over to Magic Kingdom arriving in time for me to see my first Parade. There were lots of people there to smile at (yes I have decided if I give a cheeky smile people talk to me, I'm also trying the poke my tongue out and blow raspberries techniques - I will report back on my success). I got really excited when the music started and then dancers, Characters and floats came along. Lots of the characters who were walking came and tickled me and all the princess' waved at me and blew kisses. The bigger children next to us were shouting - I have no idea why and I missed a few things in the parade trying to work out what the noise was about!

I also went on a jungle cruise - the driver needs to go to clown school to learn so much less cheesey jokes!

We paid our respects at the flag service (well I listened to the music and bottom trumped along!!) Some people had tears coming from their eyes - including Daddy but I couldn't see anything to cry at - I had my elephant to shake so all was fine for me! Daddy told me I should listen carefully to it all for when I become an American and drive the Disney trains (which I have heard but not seen or ridden yet!)

After eating my tea and covering myself and Daddy in poo (very funny must try that again!) and both getting cleaned up! I went on a monorail (an electric train - very cool!!!) to Epcot. We travelled on the Tron Train which Daddy was excited about - I have no idea why or what this Tron is so I went to sleep. I understand that Mummy and Daddy ate around the world showcase. This time they had muscles, potato gratin, Chedder Cheese soup, Chicken Chipotle Sausage and corn polenta washed down with Moosehead beer (not all together or that would be rather disgusting). Grandad would love the food and wine festival and I look forward to bring him and Grandma here in 2012 :)

It was then home on the bus to bed.

Today we are going to Animal Kingdom where I am going to learn that it is tough to be a bug and try BBQ meat :)

Love to All

What an exciting day and today we remember.

Yo Dude's & Dudette's :)

I had a really great day in EPCOT yesterday!

After our bus trip there we walked to "The Seas" where I went and saw a talk with Crush (the turtle from Finding Nemo). He was one "cool Dude" and apparently I am a "Little Dudette". He answered questions from the bigger little dudes and dudette's - they asked some very silly questions! I also saw lots of fish and 2 bigs things that eat lettuce which Mummy says are called Manatee's. Mummy also thinks they are cute - she is odd sometimes.

It was time for dinner after this and so we went to Season's restaurant where Mummy and Daddy had giant pork chops and I had some trusty Hipp organic from the UK!

I went on a boat ride then around a show about the land and into Disney's greenhouses where they experiment with new growing techniques. There were lots of strange veg I have never heard of and the biggest lemons you have ever seen - even if you are a grown up!

I had a nice sleep then. When I woke up Mummy and Daddy said they had eaten their way around the world showcase enjoying food from China, Germany, a trio of deserts and shared a frozen margarita from Mexico. They are planning a few more visits there before it finishes on Sunday.

They took me to a shop so I could choose a Duffy Bear. Duffy is the new Disney Bear who has a mickey shaped face. He comes with a story of his life and apparently I have to take him around the world with me and send pics so here is my first one of us in our apartment here in Florida:)

Mummy and Daddy then took me to innovations where I learnt about saving money in "The Big Piggy Bank Adventure". We saved enough for me to have a dream bedroom - Daddy said if only it was real money and he didnt have to decorate my new room in the new year.

I also played on a fire truck and this is me next to a fire hydrant. We dont have these in the UK and they are perfect height for me to stand up with.

My final ride was in the Imagination Pavillion where I met Figment the dragon. He was a nutter and made me laugh! He made the ride smell of skunk - that was a new experience for me.

Back to the apartment for my tea a bath in the whirlpool bath with mummy and then I went to sleep. Again Mummy and Daddy went on an adventure while I slept in the stroller and walked to Downtown Disney for their tea - they always seem to be eating over here but they say the food is v good.

Today we are having a quiet morning and then we are off to Magic kingdom again. It is the 11 November and like the UK have rememberence day the US have Veterans day and we are going to watch the flag ceremony to remember those who have fought for our freedom and still are.

Sending love to you all at home

We arrived

Hi everyone :)

Well my big adventure has begun and I have done so much already! Sorry for the long post but this is the first time I have had chance to blog since we arrived.

Mummy and Daddy say I was very good on my journey up to Gatwick. I dont remember much of it as I slept from the top of our road to Membury services (20 mins before reading) when we had a Nappy change and coffee stop. I made my happy presence known in Starbuck's where the christmas season has started and mummy and daddy had their first gingerbread latte's of the year!

In true baby fashion I made them stop at the next services for another nappy change which I thought was really funny :D

Gatwick Airport is a huge place for us babies and I was able to see lots of things. Mummy and Daddy put our BIG cases on a belt and they went off for our plane trip on Monday. They assured me I had plenty of stuff for my stay in the hotel.

Our hotel room was almost as big as gatwick! It was definitely bigger than the downstairs of our house and it had a conservatory that was as big as Grandma and Grandad's bathroom :o I really enjoyed exploring and didnt want to go to sleep so I stayed up until gone 10pm!

I decided that Mummy and Daddy needed an early morning wake up call so woke them up at 5.30;) I didn't realise that other guests had thought the same at 12am and 3am - whoops!

A nice man in a taxi collected us and took me to the airport to catch our flight. We got to go through a special security area as I was in a stroller (that is what the americans call a buggy - I am learning lots of new words here) and mummy had to try my bottle, juice and jars of food.

We looked around the shops and I had a sleep and woke up at the boarding gate where there were lots of people. Some wanted to talk to me - do they not know I don't do talking to strangers my scowl was well used there!

We then got on a huge plane with all these other people, I had to be strapped to Mummy for what seemed ages while we zoomed into the air for our loooooong flight. We were sat with 2 nice ladies who I liked to smile at and there was far too much for me to see and watch to sleep more than 30 mins on the whole flight! I had this "skycot" which I think I was supposed to sleep in but I preferred sitting in it! Mummy knocked Daddy's contact lens out of his eye with a pillow (adults are just soooo stupid!) just as we were going through turbulence. The torch app on Daddy's phone was very useful as mummy was crawling around the floor looking for it - she is so embarassing. Luckily after about 15 mins of Mummy being on all floors in between having to be strapped in due to turbulance she found the said contact lens - few! apparently there is a contact lens incident on every trip so it is something I have to get used too!

After a rather OTT landiing by the pilot (Im sure I could have done a better job - Im good at pressing buttons and leavers!) we arrived in florida. The ladies sat next to us said I was a very good girl and we were quickly through customs and onto a monorail train to where we would get our bags for the final time and meet Terry our driver.

Terry had a nice car seat that was perfect for me to sleep in and I slept all the way to Saratoga Springs where I was welcomed home. Mummy and Daddy say this is our second home - it seems very nice and I have lots of space in our apartment to expolore. Mummy and Daddy say we have an amazing view of Downtown disney and Fulton's Crab house which is a boat that is a restaurant. Mummy said they have eaten huge crab claws and lobster there in the past but advised I wont be going there as it is too expensive for this trip!

We had a good first night all waking at 2am our time (7am UK time) but after some breakfast and tv I went back to sleep at 5 as did mummy and daddy until 8am :)

Mummy and daddy took me to the Magic Kingdom for my first park visit. We went on a bus to get there. I saw some characters from a distance - this whole experience takes a lot of getting used to but I went on my first ride which was its a small world. They have a whole ride based around our doorbell at home!!! by the end I was trying to sing along - it was fun. We had lunch and then I went to sleep so mummy and daddy stolled around the park and then apparently shared a BIG ice cream sundae. I missed out on that one but must remember for later in the trip,

We came back to the apartment and then we went swimming. It was cool I loved doing all my waterbabies moves although Mummy didnt take me under as there were lots of americans watching me!! As you can see Mummy had dressed me in a silly hat due to the sun - No Harvey and Oscar I wont be wearing it too swimming when I come back so you can laugh at me!!!!!

After that I was very tired so we got dinner from the store/restaurant here on site and had and early night.

Today Mummy says we are going to EPCOT to see a piggy, trash cart, fire engine and a dragon called figment. I must sign off so I can get some breakfast.

I promise that the next posts will be shorter.

Love to all

The adventure begins at home!

Welcome to my blog :) My Mummy has been hopeless at updating her blog since I was born so I have decided to set up my own so you can see what I get up to!

Mummy and Daddy keep telling me I am going to see Mickey Mouse so I have been practicing my hotdog dance in preparation. Mummy seems to be getting a little stressed over this thing called packing. I do not understand why as from my experience it is a lot of fun - all you do is sit in a case and throw what is in there about!!! I was posing for a photo but Mummy and Daddy did not have the camera to hand - I did say "call yourself a scrapbooker" to Mummy!

Well a short and sweet post as I have been told I need to have a sleep so Mummy can finish the packing in time to leave for Gatwick at Lunchtime.

My next post will tell you all about my Gatwick and Flight Adventures - it all sounds fun :)

Love
