Walt Disney World Countdown… 90 Days to Go
So, it turns midnight and we enter into 2015. The first person I text is my best friend Bee, not saying the standard “Happy new year” no.. I text her saying “We’re going to Florida this year!” I have to admit, although it’s 90 days today til we board our flight, saying it as 3 months makes it feel so much shorter. In fact.. almost panic worthy when you think that 3 months ago it was October and that seems like 5 minutes ago! Over the last few months Instagram has become my best friend in planning a Disney holiday. I’ve managed to find a lot of Cast…

Walt Disney World Planning… 120 Days to Go
I can’t believe 30 days have passed already since I was writing my first planning update! I can’t believe 60 days have passed since we booked our dining reservations! I’m so glad we did as I checked the other day and there is nothing during the time we’re there for the restaurants we want! I have already been warned by some WDW cast members that the 10 days we’re there, 7 of which will be insanely busy! That means I need to be on the ball 60 days before to ensure I get the fast pass reservations I want, especially for Anna & Elsa! As a WDW holiday is an…

Walt Disney World Planning… 150 Days to Go
Five months today we’ll be waking up in Florida and going for our first character breakfast. It’s pretty magical to think after my birthday in March, the next time I see my best friend will be in Cinderella’s Castle. I often have to pinch myself to remind me that this is FINALLY happening. Yes, a lot earlier than I ever imagined as a mother, but a lot later compared to the last time I was there. Anyway, since I love planning holidays and I love writing about travel, why not make a mini (or should I say, Minnie haha Disney humour) about what planning has been going on and what…

Summer Travel Planning.. Where, When, What, How
So this is my very last post in regards to the trip I took to the States back in August. It was a once in a life time trip thanks to the competition I won in association with Travel Supermarket back in August 2013. Even though I had the money in my pocket, because I had so much I wanted to do I had to make sure I was still savvy when booking things. I travelled from London to Washington DC to New York to Niagara Falls to New Jersey then back to London. In 10 days. I stayed in lovely hotels, ate good food, spent time with some awesome…

26th August – To Infinity and Beyond
I feel bloody terrible for leaving my last Travel Diary entry this long! It’s been nearly two months since I first headed east to my favourite place in the world and my diary entries have been sporadic to say the least. However tonight after a pint of iced coffee and a bath I am ready to recount my last day. It’s heartbreaking to put this to bed as I have most definitely had the blues since I came back despite having a holiday already booked for 6 months time! There was such a huge build up to this, that I have felt so flat and seriously home-sick for all things…

25th August – If You Can Dream It, You Can Do It
Originally this was going to be the last post from my trip, however once I started editing the photos I realised there was going to be way too many in one post. So this is actually the penultimate Travel Diaries post. On the Monday Namu, her friend Darian (a girl I’ve met once before) and I had booked to take a bus trip up to Niagara Falls. When I was looking into going I didn’t actually realise that it’s actually an 8 hour drive, yet still in the same state as New York City! That really shows you just how vast the country is when one state is the size…
