Finding the Magic of a Moment*
Does anyone else find that a holiday goes by way faster than the time you spend leading up to the holiday? I have an app on my phone where I put all holidays or adventure dates into so when LM asks how long to go I can show her the numbers going down. But they go down so slow compared to the 3, 10, 14 or even 28 days a trip lasts (we did 28 days in Florida March 2016 and it still went by so much faster than the 28 days prior to us leaving). Then you come home and feel sad that the trip is over. Those holiday…

Things I’m Looking Forward to Doing in Disneyland Paris, April 2017
It’s finally nearly time for our second Disneyland Paris trip of the year, and this time we’re going to celebrate the 25th Anniversary in all it’s glory! I did a post like this for our January trip. This time it’s not a surprise, LM knows we’re going and she’s excited. We haven’t bothered to avoid all the spoilers and instead we’ve really enjoyed looking at photos and watching videos of all the new happenings in the parks! We’re going for three nights again and this time we’re staying off site for the first time as we have our annual passes. As we’re going to be so busy the hotel didn’t…

Doing Disneyland Paris on a Budget Part 1 – Transport, Accommodation & Tickets
Almost two years ago I did a post about doing Walt Disney World and Orlando on a budget. Although I have been lucky enough to do Florida 4 times in less than two years, I won’t be back this year no matter how much I budget. Instead we’re settling on multiple trips to Disneyland Paris and a few trips to London, all this roughly comes to the price of our very first trip to Florida back in April 2015. In the past two years prices have increased due to the unstable economy and just general inflation making it harder for me to afford it as a single parent without giving…

Disneyland Paris Haul January 2017
I know not everyone is a fan of “hauls” and in my opinion it is a silly word for things you’ve bought, haul always sounds like you’ve stolen it but if you say a post is a haul in the blogging world people know exactly what you mean. ANYWAY, this is just a quick round up on the things we bought while in Disneyland Paris last month (much more of a mouthful than haul). Usually I forget to take photos before things are opened or put away but this time I remembered to photograph all by one item that LM opened while we were on the Eurostar, it was a…

Getting an Annual Pass at Disneyland Paris
On our trip to Disneyland Paris last month I finally did something that’s been on my bucket list for a while, we became Annual Pass Holders! I have considered it for Walt Disney World for the last two years but as they regularly have black out days I would have had to get the top tier one making it well over $1000 for Little Miss and I where as I could buy a 21 day one for our trip in March and a 14 day one for our trip in October for both of us and it still cost less. Plus by getting the 14 day pass in October it…

Things I’m Looking Forward to Doing in Disneyland Paris, January 2017
What.. another Disney trip? Yes, 10 days today we’ll hopefully be less than an hour from arriving in Disneyland Paris. Due to money constraints 2017 is going to be the year of Disneyland Paris. We have no Walt Disney World trips booked (I know, I know) but right now I have 2 trips to Disneyland Paris booked and paid for and a further 2 or 3 on the cards, one hopefully with LM’s friend Bella as her family are planning on visiting from the States around about June! Thankfully aside from Bella’s family, two more of our friends will be visiting the UK during the year so we will have…
