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

Its coming to an end

Well this is our last full day here at Walt Disney World. Tomorrow Evening we fly back to England. I am not sure I want to go back although I will be glad to have normal toilets again. The toilets here are not nice and I am not liking to use them at all. They are very noisy  they flush on their own on most occasions and the have  a gap in the seat at the front which hurts my legs. Mummy and Daddy have to persuade me to go even when I am desperate I don't like them so much.

Yesterday we hopped around from place to place. We left the resort and headed to Downtown Disney and caught a bus to the Contempary Resort where we had lunch and looked at the Christmas tree made of gingerbread. The Monorail goes through this resort and I was able to watch the gold and orange monorails go past while I was eating.

Once we had had a look around we caught the Monorail around the resort circle before a couple of times before getting off at the Grand Floridian. At the Grand Floridian there was a house being made of Gingerbread. This house will be a shop for buying gingerbread over the Christmas period. They also had a huuuuge Christmas tree in the middle of the hotel.

I had a little sleep walking around the Grand Floridian and when I woke up we were in the monorail station at the ticket and transportation centre waiting for the monorail to Epcot. Mummy had taken me to Epcot to meet Duffy Bear and then we headed to the friendship boat for a trip down the river to Hollywood Studios.

By the time we got there it was dark and we were able to watch the Osbourne Family Christmas Lights. It was very clever but when the music suddenly started  very loudly I got a bit of a fright.

It was rather late for me when we left the park - it was nearly 8pm!! I sang nearly all the way home - I was not going to give into being tired.

I think we are going to magic Kingdom today to see the welcome music parade and to see if I can track down a couple more characters.

Ohhhh Mummy!!

I love my Mummy dearly but she can be very blonde sometimes (quite regularly actually!). Here is the story of today's blonde moment!

Today was our day to go visit Hollywood Studios as we had a Lunch Reservation at Mummy's favourite restaurant (anyone see how this is going yet??!!). None of us had been there yet on this trip as it is not a place high on our list to visit so we could get everything done in the one day.

We caught the bus over and the queues to get in were not too bad although Daddy took me into lines different to the others which took longer - Silly Daddy. The first place we wanted to go was to get a fast pass for Toy story Mania and then we were going to head for little Mermaid, Disney Junior on Stage and the Muppets.

As non of the shows were starting at the time we were wanting to start we headed into art of animation and I got to do some drawing on a computer screen and a screen that told me the character I was most like was Cinderella - I knew I was a princess deep down!


We went into watch Disney Junior and I got to see Handy Manny and his tools which was very exciting. I jumped up and down when they came onto stage. I also got to see Jake and his Neverland Pirates, Little Einsteins and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

After the show, Handy Manny and Jake were about for us to meet and I really wanted to meet them both. I loved meeting them and ran up to give them BIG hugs but I don't like the photographers and go all shy meaning that I look like Mummy and Daddy are making me meet the characters! Jake tickled me to try and make me laugh which worked for a few seconds but I knew what they were trying to do - I'm far to clever for these people;)

After this, Mummy went to confirm the time of our lunch reservation as she couldn't quite remember when it was and I went to watch the little Mermaid with Mamar, Granddad and Daddy. When we came out Mummy said there was no reservation as we were a day early!!!!!!!! Now she knows why she had not received her reminder email - she is silly. She had managed to get us a table after speaking to a very nice helpful cast member but because we were in the show we missed our chance. Mummy was a little upset as Hollywood Studios is not great for food unless you go to a Table Service Restaurant (they have a few really good ones of those but they are always full). We headed to see the Muppets and then we had Pizza at a counter service. At least Mamar and Granddad saved some money!!

We headed back out of the park to our apartment and I fell asleep watching Harry Potter whiles Mamar & Granddad had a stroll around the resort. They are loving the resort and Mamar is spending her time getting excited over the wildlife that lives around here - she even saw and Otter.

I am not exactly sure what tomorrow holds but Mummy says it has something to do with Monorails and Houses made of cake (I think she maybe a little obsessed with cake but I guess you all know that already!!)

I am off to bed now.

Trains, Flying Elephants and Caaakkee!!

On Monday Mamar and Grandad went to Tour the world in Epcot and Mummy, Daddy and I headed back to Magic Kingdom.

I wanted to fly again on Dumbo and we got into the park in time to not have to queue at all!! Of course I wanted to play in the waiting area so after having an un-delayed flight I went back in to play before having another flight. I had to ride with Daddy in a yellow elephant each time - Yellow is the only elephant to fly in you know.

I wanted to look in the storybook circus shop ( I like the shops over here they are full of things for a little girl like me) and we found the sweet treats counter. Of course Mummy and I could not resist so I had an amazing chocolate brownie in the shape of mickey ears and Mummy had a Mickey shaped Cake Pop (it was not a cake pop as we would know it but more a cake on a stick!!) then we caught the train around to frontierland and saw the country bears show. I wasnt sure what to expect but the bears sang songs to tell us stories it was fun.

On our way to get dinner we came across the Main Street Philamonic Orchestra. I was totally in awe of them and wanted to Dance. They are a bit silly and tell jokes as well as play music which is right up my street.

I shared dinner with Mummy and Daddy in Columbian Harbour House (a favourite of all my family now!!) and then headed for a stroll before we went to the stage in front of the castle to watch Mickey and his friends in a show about Dreams. I wasn't sure about the evil queen but I liked the princesses a lot.

On our way out the parade started and I got to see Mickey, Minnie, Pokinose (Pinocchio to those of you who are not privy to my code names) and my favourite Belle and the Beast - I got very excited when they came through. Mummy and Daddy say that the parade is not as good as it has been in the past and were a little disappointed but I have nothing to compare it to so I wasnt worried.

We then headed home for the day - I fell asleep on the bus but woke up in time to have a bath getting Daddy very wet with my squirting princess' and the to eat Mickey Raviolli for tea with everyone Mmmmm.

Going on a Duck Hunt

Sorry I am a couple of days behind again plus we are having internet issues hindering posting (and Skyping - sorry Kat!!)

We went back to Animal Kingdom on Sunday as I decided I wanted to see Nemo the Musical instruments (mummy says it's just Nemo the Musical but that just doesn't sound complete so I like the instrument bit on the end) and to hunt for Donald Duck.

We arrived and headed to Dinoland so I could go flying on a Dinosaur again. We also got some more tokens to play on the fair games. I wanted to use the water gun to try and win a Shark and guess what - I won :) then I told Daddy to play on a ball game where the ball has to land in a coloured hole and I won a Bat. I had a go and allowed Mummy to throw the last ball and she got one in too so I won another bat. The last thing I wanted to do was whack a mole and do you know what - we won a cameleon!!!!!! So I left dinoland with 4 new cuddley friends and headed towards Nemo.

After lunch we went on a Donald Hunt. I had asked to have my picture taken with him so we headed to Camp Minnie-Mickey on our adventure. We din't have to look for long to find him and I was very excited to have my picture taken with him. I have been really fussy about photos and characters but today I was happy to meet a few :) I also met Chip n Dale, Minnie & had to queue for Mickey even though I was very tired.

We then headed home as I was very tired after such an adventure. Mamar & Grandad couldn't believe I had won all of the soft toys at the dinoland fair after they all tried so hard on Friday.

A Bit Behind Part 2

On Saturday Grandad was feeling a bit poorly so Mamar, Sylvia, Mummy, Daddy and I went into Magic Kingdom. Sylvia and I had agreed to go to infinity and beyond with Buzz Lightyear. We had to shoot our lazer guns at anything related to Zurg - I did quite well but Sylvia got over 100,000 - show off.

Mummy and Daddy took us on the TTA people mover which went around Tomorrowland and then we went to the Tomorrowland Speedway. I went in a car with Mummy and Daddy and I got a license to help Daddy Drive - we had lots of bangs with the circuit but we did not hit anyone else. From listening to conversations  Sylvia's Driving was not great either and she has been driving much longer than me!

We then headed to Dumbo the flying Elephant. I had a rather large accident as we entered and wee'd all over Mummy - Whoops, so we headed out to get me changed as I had a change of clothes (mummy didn't - whoops again) and then we played in the Casey Jr Water area so Mummy could have a shower!

I went back to Dumbo with everyone but Mummy as she needed to dry off. There is a play area there while you wait your turn. It isn't as good as the one at Pooh but it helped pass the time while I waited. I enjoyed flying with Dumbo but wanted to go on the other one (there are 2 sets) but Daddy said he couldn't get me on the other and that if I queued again I was likely to get on the same one so I decided I had had enough and wanted to go home and play with the Lego Sylvia had very kindly bought me. Mummy was pleased as she could then have a proper bath and clean clothes!

Sylvia left later in the day which was sad as she was sooooo much fun and did lots of silly things with me. I'm really pleased she could join us here for a few days. It was very subdued in the evening after she left.

A Bit Behind Part 1

Sorry I've been very busy here and not had time to write my blog over the last couple of days. I'll split it down into a few posts rather than 1 Looooong post :D

On Friday we all went to Animal Kingdom for an adventure. I wanted to see Nemo the musical - I just love the music sooooo much but had no idea where it came from as it isn't in the film I watch all of the time. I love the bit where they sing about filling the tank with Poop!!! Well watching the Musical was amazing it has puppets of all the characters including a Huuuuggggeee Nigel the pelican head and I loved Crush and squirt.

Before we could go to Nemo we went to Dinoland where I rode on a flying Dinosaur with Sylvia and Mamar. I wanted to go up up up in the air - it was fun. I went and played on the fair games with Sylvia, Mamar & Grandad while Mummy and Daddy went on Primevil Whirl which they thought was good. We tried very hard to win prizes but left empty handed - I didn't mind as long as I got to do everything on my own with no help!

After Nemo we had lunch at Mummy and Daddy's favourite eatery in Animal Kingdom - Flame Tree Barbecue. It is now one of my favourties too - I get to have BBQ chicken and pork with fries (thats what they call chips over here - it gets very confusing sometimes as they call crisps chips, those American's need to learn proper English) It was Yummy.

Once I had filled my Tummy we headed to Africa to go on a Safari. We had to get a fast pass as the Queue was too long so while we waited we had a walk around the Pangani Forest Exploration. I got to see Gorillas - unlike Pertinax at Paignton Zoo they were rather well behaved and did not throw anything at the guests (thats what happened on my last visit to Paignton!)

On safari we went on a bumpy ride but all I was wanting to see was Rhino's. We saw white and black rhinos  on our safari and we also saw cheetah's, giraffe, elephants including a baby and deer. We saw Pumba and Hippos and a sleeping Lions.

After this I was ready to go home - it was a very exciting day.
