Oh dear

Whoops I have got a little behind on my blogging.

On Thursday I was not in the right mood for blogging and last night which was our last night here was spent in the park watching the main street electrical parade which was very cool. I'm glad that we managed it catch it in the end (everytime we planned to go in I fell asleep or was too tired).

The last couple of days have been spent in the Magic Kingdome of course - why would I go anywhere else?

We went in for park opening on thursday so that we could queue for the least time to go on the seven dwarfs mine train. This ride was being built when we were here last time so it was  new to all of us. The queue moved really quickly and was helped by the fact there is an interactive queue that had coool things in them.  The ride was AWESOME and I wish the lines weren't so long so that I can go again!  Daddy said now I had done that we could do big thunder mountain and I reluctantly agreed but only once we had done splash mountain again. Daddy was praying we didn't get a front seat this time so we didn't get so wet. Lucky we were 2nd row back and managed to stay relatively dry (well Mummy got a wet side and bottom!!). At least we weren't sad like the people infront of us who wore ponchos - they whole point of the ride is to get wet (or try to avoid getting wet lol).

We then went to big thunder mountain - I still wasnt convinced but Mummy and Daddy said that if I could do barnstormer and seven dwarfs they I could do this. Boy was it fun and I have wanted to do it lots. I even travel around with my arms in the air!!!!

I am also loving it's a small world - I love to sing all the way round and want to go on it nearly everytime we pass - as you can imagine Daddy is really pleased about that haha.

 I have also done barnstormer, dumbo, winnie the pooh, peter pan, pirates, haunted mansion and teacups lots.

On Friday we managed to finally see all of the show that takes place on the stage. It involves princesses and pirates aswell as the fab four (there's no pluto) and Malecifant tries to take over but Donald beats her with our help shouting Dreams come true as loudly as we can over and over!

I have also met Mickey Mouse and Ariel. Mickey wanted to fly like Peter Pan with me and we went running around the room with our arms out - he is funny.

Today is our last day and we fly back tonight. We are all sad to be leaving but we will be back again one day.

I will do a final round up blog of our last day and whole trip but for now I'm off for my final few hours in the park.

See you all real soon as Mickey would say.

Yipeeeeeee

Sorry thought this had gone up a couple days ago but it seems to have failed :( this was Wednesday.

Today we went to Downtown Disney to do the bulk of the shopping and see the bits we missed.

We left fairly early with an aim to go back to the park in the evening. The bus journey goes via the Polynesian Hotel and Typhoon Lagoon.

We had a walk around the westside where there is lots of building work going on to turn it into Disney Springs.

The most exciting thing was that we found proper sausages and I have actually sat through a meal without asking for the toilet and with being encouaged to eat!!!! We will remember this for next time.  Thanks Cooke's of Dublin @ Downtown disney - 3 very happy customers will be returning.

By the end of the shopping I was too tired to go to see the electrical parade as planned and I fell aslep!!

Flying over Agrabah

It was back into the Magic Kingdom today (tuesday I think). We started the day with a visit to pixie hollow to see Tinkerbell. She asked if I was an animal fairy like the ones before me and I said no my talent was drawing so she wants me to draw a picture of her. We then caught a snap with Mary Poppins and had a quick stop in goofy's candy store for some jelly beans - Sparkly Princess ones!!

In the Magic Kingdom they have something called sorcerers of the magic kingdom. You collect spell cards each day you play and find portals around magic kingdom to try and defeat the villans with spell cards. I played today (I had started earlier in the trip) and defeated cruella du vil yay!!  It was then off to buzz lightyear's ride and the we went on the laugh floor with some of our friends from Monster's Inc and Monster's University.

We stopped at Starbucks to get Mummy cake and coffee and Daddy a decent coffee before heading into Adventureland for a Magic Carpet ride.  Next up was the Tiki room which I liked most of apart from the drummers as they were noisey.

It was Hot Dog for lunch. I had a go at some hot dog and corn dogs but not convinced so fries it was for me!!

We went to meet Cinderella and Rapunzel but we ended up queuing longer to see them than we did for Elsa and Anna - Mummy and Daddy we not impressed 30 mins posted was actually 90 mins!! It gave me time to get my foot stuck in the railings which Daddy thought was funny Mummy had to take my foot out of my shoe and yank the shoe out!!

It was all worth it - Cinderella was very chatty and funny to meet and Rapunzel was discussing hair curls with me - they all like my hair here.

We then watched the parade from Adventurland and I got to sit on Daddy's shoulders, we headed towards the exit and Mummy and Daddy went the wrong way and I got to see the parade again from the ground right at the end of their route. It is a new parade from when we were last here and we haven't seen it live before (we have watched it numerous times on You Tube though!).

It was then on a Monorail to the resort and then we went for a swim. This was my second time in the pool but we arent in there for long as the temperatures here are so low (for here). The news says it is 10 degrees below the average temperatures here at the moment - lots of days with jeans and jumpers. When we finished in the pool we went in the hot tub which was lovely.

By the time we did this is was time to go and make smores around the resort campfire. It was only marshmallows (mummy says that is the best bit anyway) this time so we toasted a few marshmallows to eat before heading back to get changed and going for Dinner.

I'm not sure what we shall do on Wednesday but we really want to see the Electrical parade tonight.

A note for Mamar from Mummy

Dear Mamar

Mummy has asked that I let you know that she now realise's how annoying she must of been on all of those trips/stays away when she was little and continuously asking to go to the toilet through meals!!

Apparently I am giving her double payback for those days now - although she is being very good at smiling (well I think that is what it is there are teeth showing and a unexplained look in her eyes!?!). Of course I have no idea what she is talking about - it is good to ask to go if you "feel like it" right?? Apparently you will understand her frustrations.

She advises that although I am 95% a Daddy double (I even have the grumpy when happy look mastered on this trip) Mummy's believe's I have the wrong 5% of her which includes this what she calls the obsessive toilet at meal time habit and the wake up early and ensure the whole house is up habit??

Oh well I guess it serves her right wouldn't you agree?

See you soon

A rainy day at the circus

Hi from a rather Wet miserable Florida!!

The day started off lovely but Daddy announced very early on that there would be storms at 3pm. Well the rain started at 1ish and is still going now - its lot's of rain too we were soaked walking back through the park to get home!

We headed into MK for a trip on Goofy's Barnstormer as I haven't done it in the daylight before and then we went and met Daisy, Minnie, Goofy and Donald who were today working in the circus. Minnie was my favourite as she was surrounded by Pink Poodles (Mummy was very surprised to see there was not one called Fi Fi!!) although Goofy said hello by waving his ears at me which I thought was great. We then went on Dumbo another of my favourite rides.

Mummy and Daddy said I could have my chocolate Mickey head brownie I had been wanting today - I actually decided to have an Olaf cake pop. It was rather yummy. Just as I was finishing eating the Main Street Philharmonic Band turned up to entertain us with Circus based music. I loved watching them and dancing along with Mummy. I still like the look of the Trombone so the neighbours better get some ear plugs in a year or so's time!!

It was then we headed towards the jungle cruise but along the way the show on the castle stage had started and so we watched that before heading into adventureland. The one thing I love about Magic Kingdom is that everywhere you turn there is something different to entertain and stimulate you. Just as we went into adventureland we stumbled across the queue for Peter Pan and as the line was short we headed in.

Well we went on Jungle Cruise and it was not as I had been promised. Mummy said they told bad jokes like Daddy but all I could hear was the driver talking all the way through (Mummy edit to say entire driver commentary was actually continuous bad Daddy jokes it's just AJ doesn't get them yet!!) so went from there to Pirates and then it was time for lunch. I wanted pizza so we headed back to Fantasyland to Pinocchio's restuarant. It was then the rain started and it just didnt stop. we headed into It's a small world to see if it would pass but alas no it didnt so we headed back to Bay Lake Towers.

I think we will be going into Magic Kingdom again tomorrow for a few more adventures - we still have lots to do although it is gradually getting ticked off the list.

I went Soarin' !!!!

Yo Dude's and Dudette's

I was taught to say this by Crush on Sunday over at Epcot in the Living Seas. He is a rather cool and funny turtle. He wanted us to tell him what some of the human items were that squirt had found in the sea - one a Buzz Lightyear toy and then he came out with a bikini top on - he did make me laugh!!

The first thing we did was head into the Character Spot for some pics with the fab five - although there were only 3 of them this time. We got to meet Mickey, Minnie and Goofy. It was then across to take a ride with Figment to learn about Imagination - apparently I have a good one according to Mummy and Daddy. After a quick play in the jumping water pads we headed into Soarin' as it was our fast pass time.

Now I was a little worried about going on this ride but now I have been on it I think it is really cool. I didn't know how they did it but it was like we were flying but we weren't we were still on the ground (well sat strapped in a chair). This is definitely something I would do again. 

As we were in the Land we had lunch in sunshine seasons. I can't really adjust to the food here but Mummy says they don't do sausages like we have in the UK and I don't like the Mac n Cheese over here either - it just isn't like the one at school or that Mummy cooks.

Once I had eaten a little bit of lunch we headed across to the Living Seas which was where I went to a turtle talk with Crush. We also got to see a Manatee and some Dolphin. I wasn't really that impressed with any of it and was quite pleased to go and meet Donald dressed in his sombrero over in Mexico. He wanted to take me home with him then decided it would be better if he came with is to do some rides but his minder told him he needed to go and check on something for Daisy so he couldn't - silly old Donald.  I also went on a Mexican Fiesta with the Three Cabalero's ride and coloured in a Duffy bear puppet on a Stick.

We then went to the Garden Grill for Dinner and eat in the revolving restaurant and were joined by Mickey, Pluto, Chip and Dale.  I got to Dance with Mickey and Dale who also crept up and played Peak a boo with Daddy which I thought was funny. I was given some colouring and Mickey came along and helped me with it.  I had given Chip and Dale green eyes which he thought was really funny.

Once dinner was finished and we had popped into the Mouse Gears shop (Mummy likes this shop as they often have things you don't see anywhere else and she is on a bag hunt!) we headed back on the Monorail home where I fell straight to sleep (after eating a Banana which Mummy is trying to get me to eat each day - something to do with energy and finding something I will eat - I'm not really listening to them surely cereal, chocolate milk and apple juice is all I really need right?!?!?!?!)

Well I am not really sure what the plan for Monday is. I dont really know what I want to do and I felt a little bored at times on Sunday so Mummy and Daddy think we will concentrate on doing bits in the Magic Kingdom - we still have lots to see and do although I am quite happy just doing the Barnstormer and Dumbo!!

PS sorry this post was a little delayed I was just toooooo tired and needed a blogging break :)

Oh What a Palavour!

It was just one of those days on Saturday.  The plan was we would go to Fantasia golf mid morning and then head to Downtown Disney getting back early evening for an early night.

Well.... we left a little later than Mummy had hoped which wouldn't have been so bad had all the information been right about catching a bus to the Swan and Dolphin Hotels. We took a Monorail to the Ticket and Transportation centre as every website and blog Daddy read had advised. Once there we found we had to go back to the Magic Kingdom to get the bus - so we could have got there by walking!! So.... we had to Catch the ferry back across to magic kingdom (well we could have done the Monorail but I hadn't done the Ferry yet) and then wait for a bus.

The one thing with being at the Contemporary resort is that it takes a long time to get anywhere other than Magic Kingdom and to some extent EPCOT. On this bus journey I decided I would have a snooze.

It was lunchtime when we got to The Swan and then we walked to Fantasia Gardens Mini golf. Well, we were going to have to wait and hour and then play for 45 mins so Mummy and Daddy said that we would go back another day and just head to Downtown Disney as I was hungry. So it was then a walk back to the hotel and wait for a Downtown Disney bus which then stopped at every Hotel in the EPCOT resort area. Boy was I pleased to get to Wolfgang Pucks Cafe to have some lunch. Mummy and Daddy like to eat here as you get really good meals. Mummy had spaghetti and meatballs and Daddy had his favourite meatloaf dish. I of course had Chicken Fingers!!

Once we had eaten it was off shopping - Mummy had told me that there were lots of shops and they were big but I didn't realise they would be mind blowingly big for a little girl. Really there was just too much for me to look at and take in but Mummy and Daddy picked me up a couple of bits and then I went to the Lego store which was the one shop I wanted to go to. It was really busy and loud so I was a little overwhelmed to concentrate on everything that was there. I really hoped they would have the Frozen Lego but they didn't so I got a Princess Jasmine set and some bits of Lego friends that were sale items and they gave me a free lego city construction set.

After a later than planned icecream from Ghirardelli (Mamar they were really good!!) we headed to the bus stop to go back to the apartment.

Downtown Disney is right opposite our Home DVC resort Saratoga Springs where we normally stay and heading there made Mummy and Daddy realise that although, the apartment at bay lake is totally amazing and for this trip where I want to be in MK A LOT it is perfect, next time we will go back home. Apparently they say it is much more central for everything and we can walk into Downtown all the time for food and refreshments. Buses seem more frequent there too (other than at Epcot where buses are always unpredictable!!)

The one thing that I just cant work out over here are the Toilets. Firstly I need to call them restrooms and no-one asks for a "wee" or "the loo" it's "potty" or "bathroom" - I need to learn these terms for when we move to the States one day (in Mummy and Daddy's dreams - Mamar/Grandad/Mushu would need to move too!). Well this is not the only random thing - the public toilets here flush themselves and yesterday the ones in Downton Disney seemed to want to take me with them as they flushed while I was still sat on them!!! I really didn't like this one bit!

Sunday brings us a day at EPCOT where I am going to ride though imagination with Figment and his smelly skunk stench and then apparently I can go soarin' across California and I'm hoping to have a chat with Crush the Turtle!!

No pics today I'm afraid will have some tomorrow I promise.

I'm a Wilderness Explorer!!

Well we headed out to Animal Kingdom on Friday morning. We were a little more leisurely than planned getting out so missed our first fast pass. We did get there in time for our safari but on our way to Africa I signed up as a Wilderness Explorer just like Russell, not my Daddy the one from the film Up!  I now need to collect all the badges as I go around Animal Kingdom.

Also as we entered Africa there was some African Drummers performing. I enjoyed standing and watching them and dancing a little. I decided that I needed to dance like a chicken - like I told Mummy and Daddy earlier in the week I get a drunk head sometimes and it makes me a little crazy!!! I also wanted to have a go at African druming and when looking in my wilderness explorers handbook I saw I could earn a badge just around the corner. I played a cool rhythm and found out the name of an African xylophone is Balafon and earned my Badge.

It was then time to head off on our Safari but not before I brought some binoculars!! I got to see lots of Animals on Safari in my safari truck Simba 1. Some rare and some I can see at Paignton zoo although they aren't behind glass here. Mummy got really excited to see Hippo's out of the water. Apparently wherever she has been where they are, they have been hiding under water! I did get to see a baby gorilla though and learnt lots of facts.

Going on Safari makes a princess like me (well that is what they keep calling me here!) really hungry and Mummy and Daddy are not going to go to Animal Kingdom without having BBQ food so off we went to track it down. I had a BBQ chicken leg and it was delicious. Mummy and Daddy shared a ribs and chicken combo with cornbread and they were happy too.

It was then off to Dinoland where I flew on Hester and Chester's ride and then went to the boneyard to play around the dinosaur bones that had been excavated. I saw a t-rex (it tried to eat me!!!), brachiosaurus a valoceraptor and got to ride a pachycephalosaurus. Then I went to excavate some bones which was fun and earnt another badge.

We then headed back to have some Dinner at Contempo Cafe again. I wanted to head into MK to go on Goofy's Barnstormer as I was not about to let the fact I was exhausted stop me going on one of my favourite rides at night!! We were delayed a little as the Monorail in front of us was having technical difficulties - so it had broken down basically holding us all up!! It seemed like we were sat there forever. Mummy and Daddy tried to pursuade me that we could get off and have an early night but sleep is for wusses in my opinion!!

When we finally arrived at MK I spotted Aurora and had to meet her. I was the last guest she was greeting as apparently she likes to get to bed early (Mummy said so would she - there are 2 more wusses!!). 

I actually went on Barnstormer twice in a row - I just think it is an amazing ride! then it was time for Dumbo before heading back out as even I had to admit I was tired!

Well my next adventure involves golf and shopping!!!! I am quite excited by this too.

Meeska Moushka Mickey Mouse!!

Hi Again

I think I am keeping up relatively well with my blog for a change - always a day behind but it is easier to write at breakfast rather than when I am tired at the end of the day.  I think this could be a long post as we had a full fun packed day on Thursday.

The fun started at 7.00 when we went to Chef Mickey's for Breakfast. For those of you who don't realise this time we are staying in one of the best (I actually think it is the best as it has a Monorail going through it and views of the Park - what could be better than this!?!) hotel complex's on Disney Property. We are in the DVC complex but the main Contemporary Hotel also contains some of the best restaurants on property (if not the world on a couple of cases) and therefore they are some of the most costly!! Chef Mickey's is a restaurant when Mickey Mouse and the rest of the Fab Five do the cooking - yes really! Mummy and Daddy said that as we were staying here they would take me there for breakfast and this is what we did this morning. I got to meet all the characters in their chef's outfits. They all seem pleased to see me and Pluto licked my head - silly dog! Of course I wasn't going to stop eating my Mickey Waffles for anyone and so I had my Photo with Goofy with my waffle still in my hand.

After breakfast we headed on a Disney bus to Disney Hollywood Studios. I got chatting to a family on the bus and the little girl had done a lot of the same things as me so far and liked the same bits but I had been braver going on Goofy's Barnstormer :)

Once we had got into the park (bag checks were very thorough and slow today!) I noticed that the giant Sorcerer Mickey Hat was half gone. Mummy and Daddy say that it is being removed :( I am a little sad but apparently it was only supposed to be there for a few months but it remained there for years!!

We headed straight to Playhouse Disney just in time for our fast pass and as I scanned my magic band (they really are cool) a cast member said "Do you watch Disney Junior?" Hello does he not know me of course I do I live in a disney obsessed house. Of course I politely and quietly said yes and he asked if wanted to be the 1st person of the day and open the doors of the Disney Junior Live Building. They asked me lots of questions about the Disney Junior shows and I was able to answer them all and more. They looked at Mummy and Daddy and said I was impressive!! I had to say Meeshka Moushka Mickey Mouse and the doors opened. I was taken in at got to sit right at the front in the centre had the room to myself until they started letting people in. Mummy and I sang the Sharky and Bones song from Jake and the Neverland Pirates with all the actions along with a cast member. Mummy needs to work there she was better than the cast member and got a High Five (she is sooo embarrassing!!). I got a certificate confirming that we were the first family for the Day there and I got Gold dabloons from Jake and the streamers from Minnie's Party. On they way out I found the cast member to say thank you for the experience and he gave me some stickers to take away.


It was raining when we came out and luckily I could go and meet Sofia the first next as she was undercover and we could keep dry (well apart from our shoes where Mummy walked us through a giant puddle - she is a total nightmare to be with sometimes). Sofia commented that we had the same coloured hair and she thought I was cute!

We headed over to Toy Story Mania where we had our next fast pass booked. We were a bit early so strolled to Pixar Place. There were 2 Toy Soldier's from Toy Story walking around and I played Peek a boo with 1 of them who was hiding behind a tree then peeking round and waving at me. The nice thing about this time of the year is that the crowds a relower and the cast members can be more interactive in different ways. I am not so keen on the full on character experiences but love interacting in this kind of way it is good fun.

We stopped for lunch before the surprise fast pass time came. Mummy wouldn't tell me what it was but we passed Muppets along the way and so went in there to see their show. I like this show but sometimes I jump at the 3D effects.

I then found out the surprise fast pass was to watch A Frozen Celebration Sing-a-long (Daddy was not quite as excited as me!!) - It was sooooo amazing (I am saying that a lot while I am here!) and I sang all the way through. The Arandale Historians are very funny and we got to see Kristoff as well as Elsa and Anna. Anna had a different voice than when I met her last time so I am not exactly sure what is wrong with her!?!

We stopped off for a refreshment break (including a cupcake for Mummy!!) and then headed out of the park and onto a Friendship boat that took us to Epcot. It was busy and Mummy and I couldn't sit with Daddy initially. We sat with a couple who were from South Carolina and I talked to them nearly the whole way!! They liked my accent and thought I was cute too (Mummy and Daddy are hoping this cuteness will travel back with us to the UK and that it isn't just some disney magic effect).

I said thank you to the Sailorman on our boat (Daddy pointed out he was a captain not just a sailorman - whoops) and he gave me a friendship boat card. It definately pays to be polite and cute in Disney you never know what you will get.

We walked around the world while at Epcot. I'm not sure I quite understood the concept of this I wanted to see Duffy bear not walk around the world, it sounded like a long trip to me. In the end it wasn't too long before we reached Duffy bear who's heart I stole and I think he wanted to take me on his travels with him.

We headed into the Land to eat in the Season's restaurant where I had the most normal meal of my Adventure so far - Chicken leg and mash. I am not keen on trying all this other food and try to stick to Chicken Nuggets but this Season's meal was good and I will have that again. Mummy and Daddy enjoyed the Pork Chop and Mash too.

I then went on a boat journey to learn about living with the land and see how disney grow food to serve in Disney World. It was cool and they had baby alligators in there too!!

It was then time to head back home as it was getting late and I had been walking all day thank goodness for the monorail going to the resort as I didn't have to wait in the cold (yes it is also cold here) for a bus.

Well there that was a long post and a long day - hopefully not too long for you.

Friday holds another adventure this time in the Serengeti as we head to Animal Kingdom but I hope that we will be back in time to head into MK for another ride on Barnstormer.

Zip a dee do dah day

Howdy folks

That's how they talk in Frontierland where we started our day today.

We had a fastpass
booked for Splash Mountain 1st thing. This was the first time I have been able to go on this ride (or any ride of this kind) as I have been too small previously. I was a little nervous about this ride but Mummy and Daddy said the worst thing that can happen is that we would get wet - Wet?!? - We... got... SOAKED!!!! The picture is taken as you come down the big splash and you can see Mummy is already wet so you can just imagine how wet I got - well actually not as wet as Mummy and Daddy as they seemed to shelter me from most of the water hahaha. Mummy and my faces in the picture is soooo funny.

We spotted that Chip n Dale had a small queue to meet them so I had some pictures and got their autographs. They both gave me a hug and then I got squished in a Chip n Dale sandwich!!! I couldn't see anything but chipmunk arms - they are just soooooo silly.

Next I asked to go on Pirates of the Caribbean because I have not done that since I was tiny and I couldn't remember it. I was really nervous and a little scared but I was brave and held Mummy's Hand. Then I decided that I just as well get all the scarey bits out the way so asked to go on the Haunted Mansion. I really didnt need to be scared and will do them both again.

Of course after any scarey ride you should have your lunch and we went to Peco Bill's. Mummy and Daddy say they do the best burgers because you can add lots of topping from the topping bar. I don't do burgers so I had a grilled cheese sandwich in the shape of a fish!?! it was a little odd if I am honest but ate 3/4 of it then had some of Mummy's chips. Daddy had hot cheese sauce with his chips but I wasn't convinced that was a good idea and stuck to good old ketchup!!

Daddy is so pIeased that I have got Mummy's addiction to it's a small world! I just had to go on that on the way to meet Belle for her enchanted story. This is where last time I was a reluctant Chip Pots. This time I was a plate and quite happy with that (although I would like to point out I made a far better chip when I did it than the one yesterday!!!).

It was then back to the room for a rest but the Dapper Dan's were singing in Main street so I had to stop and listen to them along the way. I was really excited - I listen/watch them on you tube and Love to try and be like then with my hat on singing at home!

After a rest for Daddy and me (I got Daddy up at 4.30 again!! apparently if I do it again I will be put straight back to bed so must work on this) and then we headed out for dinner at contempo cafe again then back into Magic Kingdom (MK as we now call it). I like going in after Dinner as we get to do lots of rides quickly so I did Buzz Lightyear, Tomorrowland Speedway, Dumbo, Winnie the Pooh, Peter pan and my first rollercoaster - Goofy's Barnstormer. Mummy said I should try it to see if I would like Big Thunder Mountain and Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. I screamed a lot but I loved it!!!!!

It was then back for bed - I am having Breadkfast with Mickey in the Morning so need my beauty sleep.

Here's to more adventures tomorrow.

Annary Sister

Hi again

Our first full day here was full of frozen fun in more ways than 1! Today's task was to meet Elsa and Anna.

Many of you will know that "the only" reason for coming to Disney in my mind was to meet the Arandale Royalty who are also staying here in WDW. Now they are soooo popular we were unable to get fast passes to meet them and the queues are always quite long (you have to remember Mummy and Daddy NEVER queue more than 30-45 mins for anything when here!!) so Operation meet Elsa and Anna from Frozen started at 8.30 (would have been earlier but we couldn't open the safe to put our passports etc in so had to wait for a Fix it person!).

The temperature here is a little cooler than hoped so jumpers are required. A lot of the cast members are dressed in winter coats which seems strange to see!!

We used our magic bands to enter the park - it is really cool and a lot easier and quicker than with tickets and we walked straight to Princess Fairytale Hall. The Man at the entrance told Mummy there was a 130 minute wait!!!!! Once in the queue Daddy then reminded Mummy we hadn't got an autograph book or pen yet so Mummy had to jump out of the queue and into the shop quickly!! (well there was plenty of time really when the queue is 130 mins). I really enjoyed people watching and updating my blog in the queue and then we were at the front (Daddy said it was only a 60 min wait) but it was totally worth every minute! 

I met Anna first and she was very chatty and took my hand and led me in. She has an A embroidered on the back of each boot and says they are for Arendale but that now 1 is for Anna and 1 for Amelia and said I was an Annary Sister (she asked Mummy and Daddy if they got the joke - they said she needed to take a job on the Jungle Cruise with jokes like that!!). This is what she is telling me in this pic.

I then got to meet Elsa - she was much more regal but I guess she is the Queen of Arandale! 

I got both of their autograph's in my book and the whole experience was "totally amazing".

After a stop over in Rapunzle's kingdom (RaRa sorry none of us can remember what her kingdom is called you will have to remind us!!!) we went and rode it's a small world and I sang all the way around.

After lunch we went to watch Mickey's Philharmagic I was a little scared then I brought my Anna dress (I love it and it has plenty of growing room!) and then we headed back to our room for a sleep as it had been a really long day getting here and I was up at 4.30am Florida time. After a few hours Mummy woke me and we went off to have some Dinner in Contempo cafe in the Hotel. After we had eaten we got onto the monorail and headed into the Magic Kingdom for a couple of hours. 

My Mummy and Daddy know all the tricks and within an hour we rode on Dumbo, Winnie the Pooh, Peter Pan and the Carosel as well as seeing some of Wishes (the fireworks show I had watch from the room last night). All of these rides normally have a minimum queue wait of 45 mins through the day and we just walked onto all of them!!

After getting a Tinkerbell light up spinny thing (yes Mamar I got one this time :)) we walked home (we can do that as our Hotel is right next to Magic Kingdom - I can't get over how cool that is!!) this evening it wasn't quite as cold as when we arrived which was good.

I have had and Amazing first day here and look forward to telling you more of my adventures tomorrow.

Planes, trains and automobiles

Well yeaterday I travelled in a taxi minibus, plane, train and a coach just to get to disney!

We had a nice room at the holiday inn which is where we left Grandad's car for it's own little vacation.

We headed over to the airport after a leisurely time getting ready to go and we arrived just in time for a McDonalds breakfast yummy!

We had a look around the shops and Mummy said as i was going on a long adventure I could have a magazine ( Mummy's so cruel and wont buy them at home so I was quite surprised!!) we also picked up Uno junior which was fun to play on the plane.

When we got the details of our boarding gate it all went quite fast!  We walked a short distance and saw the plane we were flying on. It was soooooo big. Mummy told me the plane was called Hot Lips. We showed our passports and Mummy and Daddy were really surprised that we walked straight onto our plane.

We were all set to take off v early but there was a medical situation and someone had to leave the plane for further medical attention so we were then late!! Oh well mummy says better before we leave than mid flight!

I enjoyed watching boxtrolls also using the pencil for colouring and looking at where's wally which came in my virgin bag I was given.

Luckily because we were sat closer to the front of the plane, the customs line was shorter than last time and our bags were quick. We then had to get on a train to head to where the Magical express was waiting to take us to the Hotel.

I slept on the bus so cant tell you about that journey at all!!

As you saw from my mini post last night our hotel room is just Amazing and the views are AWESOME!!! I'm looking forward to nightly fireworks.

I was very excited that we picked up our Magic bands when we checked in and it is really easy to get around using them and for mummy and daddy to pay for things quickly. Mine is pink and it says our names on the back they are Cool.

This morning i have seen nearly every monorail colour at our hotel and Mummy says we can see the Orlando Eye from our balcony so we can see a long long way.

Im writing this while queuing to meet elsa and anna. The queue is very long but Im am quite happy if I get to meet them at the end.

Catch you later

Love Amelia x

Wow!!!!!

Wow is all we have said since arriving in our room 45 mins ago!!! It is just amazing!

Not only do we have thevlake view we requested but we can see the castle in the magic kingdom and watch the fireworks every night from our giant window or the balcony and we did just that in the 1st 15mins of being in our room. They were the most amazing firework.

I will do a better updat on our trip here tomorrow but we are finally here safe and very happy xx

Hello and we are off!!!!

We have just arrived at our hotel near Gatwick and i write this while eating cold pizza in my onesie at 8.30pm!!

I think we have had a long journey today mummy says it was nice and uneventful. Mummy and Daddy say I am a star as I behaved so well on the journey.

Mummy got excited about passing the Queen's castle at Windsor and the low flying planes - I however wasnt quite so impressed!!

When we finally got to Gatwick to do Twilight check-in there was a loooong queue. Mummy and Daddy said how well I behaved unlike the old people behind us who left the queue in a strop!!! I don't think they made a good choice! Mummy said that this queuing was good practice for when I go to meet Elsa and Ana at Disney!!

In the queue I liked to watch the electronic advert board as there was a funny dashund dog. It kept doing funny things. It must be exhausted by now as it was still going when we left! On the way out he was running along different signs following us hahaha. I did laugh!

Well I must sign off now - it is way past my bedtume and I need to rescue Daddy who has just fallen off the bed (yes mummy and I are laughing!!)

Next time I write we will be in Disney - I'm very excited!!

Chat to you all soon

Love Amelia.

Testing Testing....

Hi, it is me Amelia back again 2 years older and much much wiser!! (too wise my Mummy says haha).

Coming back to writing my blog obviously means that I am off on another adventure which is very exciting. At this time in 2 weeks I will be in the sky flying over the USA to visit my pal Mickey (well Elsa and Anna really but Mummy and Daddy keep reminding me it is apparently all about the Mouse!!). This time we are staying right next to the Magic Kingdom and the Monorail goes through the Hotel next to the building our villa is in. It is all very exciting!!

Well this was just a test to brush the dust of my blog and check it is all ok for my daily (well hopefully) update. I have enjoyed reading back over my previous adventures.

For now I'm signing off and will chat to you all soon.

Love Amelia x
