Re: Wet January at DLP
I do hope that it is similar because as you may have noticed we liked it, particularly the breadAmy wrote: I've watched the Ratatouille ride on youtube and it looks like great fun. I wonder how closely the EPCOT version will be?

At last it had stopped raining and although quite grey it was not too cold as the wind had dropped. Hooray an improvement in the weather! We had plenty of time so decided ...

Re: Wet January at DLP
When you meet those Chipmunks they always give you a lift :D especially when one is so pleased to see you. And you're right cy we really needed it with the way things were going Santa Fe, sadly, didn't even feel like a budget hotel and with the noise which I guess was possibly a rough old boiler, it...

Re: Wet January at DLP
Just to show how wet it was when we arrived on the Sunday. I found this youtube video of the parade. Our Princess was Anna and was struggling with the rain in her eyes! You can watch her from about 8 mins in. Here is the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SE74_xZCfY&fbclid=IwAR2mnTvdKYdkzbg9F...

Re: Wet January at DLP
Day 1 Sunday 21st January Our other daughter took us across to Liverpool for our early Sunday morning train to London. It was raining and cold, but it was mid-January so no surprise there. As we sped on our way we had the unusual experience of travelling at 100mph through heavy snow. Outside everyw...

Re: Wet January at DLP
Whoo-hoo ~ can't wait to see what happened! I am curious though. Why would taking an empty suitcase over and bringing it back full preclude your flying? The problem with short flights is that they are mainly operated by the low cost airlines and rely on everyone taking hand luggage only. If you hav...

Re: December 2017 at WDW
Day 11 Friday 15th December So sadly our last day arrived. With nothing planned we took a morning stroll around the Yacht Club and Beach Club taking in all the Christmas decorations, after all it was only 10 days away. We bought a few last souveniers in the Beach Club shop before taking the bus to ...

Re: December 2017 at WDW
Hmm, Animal Kingdom was always one of our favorites, but maybe it is because we love(d) animals. One of the highlights was always the safari for sure. Sorry Amy. It's not that we don't like the animals. Goodness I see Rhinos, Elephants & Monkeys everyday now in my new job :) AK just doesn't see...

Re: December 2017 at WDW
Day 10 Thursday 14th Decembe r For some unexplainable reason Animal Kingdom had ended up at the end of our holiday again. I really don't know where Animal Kingdom fits in to Disney. There is nothing particularly wrong with it, just to me it doesn't seem to fit :? Another confession here. Until two ...
