26 Tips for Parents at Disneyworld

Last year I went on a VIP bloggers trip to Disneyworld, Florida. Here are the top tips for parents I picked up during the trip. Feel free to add your own in the comments….
Get Organised
1. Buy tickets in advance, it saves queuing when you get there, same applies for character breakfasts, which may sell out if you don’t book early.
2. Go with an itenerary, it will be invaluable, however basic.
3. Measure your child’s height before you go, that way you’ll know exactly which rides they …

Disney Video: The Beach Club Resort

Can’t believe I’m only writing about arriving and already I’m on my final day, didn’t have chance to do as much blogging as I’d hoped but we did see a lot more of Disneyworld which was the whole point, I’ll probably spread my posts over the next few weeks, until I’m back again, roll on June 18th.
Anyway we arrived at Orlando airport and proceeded to the dreaded check-in, last time I was here I was only seventeen and got a proper grilling from a surly man who must have been …

Disney Diary: Virgin Atlantic

Virgin are actually partnering with Walt Disneyworld to bring us mummy bloggers over here so it seems only right to do a full review, arrrgh such a hardship!
I’m not sure how much extra it is to upgrade to premium economy, oh hang on, a good reviewer would check, back in a mo…ok, so it was a much bigger difference than expected;
Price Comparison
1 x Economy Adult Return Ticket Gatwick to Orlando = ?398.70
for the same period
1 x Premium Economy Adult Return Ticket Gatwick to Orlando = ?883.70
Okaaaay given what I know …

How Can I Get a Trip to Disney?

I’ve been asked that quite a bit over the last few days. Along with;
Do you need a travel companion?
Can I come in your suitcase?
Do they need any extras?
and the most popular line…
“I’m going to start blogging”
So how do you land an all expenses paid trip to Walt Disneyworld Orlando?
Well first you need to have a blog and secondly (for this trip anyway) you needed to belong to Think Parents.
And that’s it.
What are you waiting for?

A Magical Trip!

The shock of the trip has settled a little, I can believe it’s happening now. The excitement is still coming in waves, but I’m a worrier so those waves are interspersed with worries, like missing my daughter and husband, I realise this sounds a bit wet but I’ll be away for a week when you include the travelling and I know it’s going to be really HARD. On a less dramatic level there are a number of smaller worries, how much money to take?, what clothes to take, …

A Bit of a Random Question

Just before our trip to Pitlochry I received an email with the title ‘A Bit of a Random Question’, the email was from a PR company… I receive emails like this fairly regularly, I’ve been lucky enough to receive freebies like books and cosmetics and have even been invited to a cartoon launch and a film premier (unfortunately I was unable to attend either) I love getting these sort of emails they are the bloggers perk, and who doesn’t love receiving freebies?
Anyway, I open the email and am astonished …
