I have just returned from the most amazing two weeks in Walt Disney World. All the planning definitely paid off – I really feel like we had the best time that we could by having so much sorted, dining all booked and by knowing which rides to do first etc. We didn’t wait for more [...]

This is by no means a packing list – I think people can mainly figure out for themselves that they need soap, sunscreen and shorts etc. Just remember that it is usually very hot and very humid most of the year, and a little cooler December through to February and pack accordingly (and don’t forget [...]

Coming from the UK, we’re really not used to tipping in the same way as in America or Walt Disney World. Sure, most people tip at the end of a meal, or in a cab, and maybe the pizza delivery guy, but generally, it’s a few quid – perhaps a bit more for good service. [...]

Last week I went through the process of booking my dining. I think getting this right can be quite daunting for someone doing it for the first time. And getting it right can also turn a great holiday into an amazing one. I think that’s especially true coming from the UK just because our holidays [...]

Arrghh, I’m such a cliche – a Brit (or is it just the English?) that can’t go without a nice cup of tea each day! I’m not obsessive – I know plenty who really couldn’t go without a cuppa whereas I could skip it if I had to – especially in the Orlando heat. But [...]
