I’ve been following along quietly with your adventures with your niece, and thoroughly enjoyed reading. The fun you have together really comes across in your report.

I’m booked on the August 27th 5 night on the Dream stopping at La Coruña and Vigo. It was very last minute, only booked last week. Even though I’m in the UK I’ve never sailed from Southampton, only from Port Canaveral. It will be just me and my 2 teenage daughters. 1. How straightforward is...

It’s about a mile from the Treehouses to Hospitality House. It’s a lovely peaceful walk along the river, but only open during daylight hours. We really like Olivia’s Cafe, and we walked over there for breakfast on our last trip.

Ouch, that sounds uncomfortable, hope you managed ok with the walking around the parks. Over near the 9000 buildings of Grandstand is a path that leads to the Treehouse Villas, it’s only a couple of minutes walk. So that probably is your quickest option. We only walked that way during the day...

Really late joining in and enjoying your report. Your photos of the room are making me happy/sad because it’s almost identical to the one we stayed in back in January. Grandstand is my favourite area of Saratoga, definitely the most convenient for the buses, we always liked being the first stop...

We’ve had some really hot weather in the UK over the last few weeks and seeing some crazy photos from the beaches. People just packed in. As much as I’d like a nice beach day, you couldn’t pay me to go to them at the moment.

Wednesday 15th January: Castaway Cay day (cont) We took a break from our relaxing to eat at Cookies Too BBQ. It’s quite a basic menu compared to the food available on the ship (burgers, hot dogs, chicken, etc) but there’s plenty of it and it’s pretty tasty. Lexi never seems to wear a hat...

Wednesday 15th January: Castaway Cay day (cont) Luckily Alice shook off her disappointment pretty quickly, it’s very hard to stay sad on Mickey’s island. We all really needed to freshen up after our races, and as lunch was still quite a way off, needed something to eat. So back to the ship we...

Wednesday 15th January: Castaway Cay day (cont) I headed back on board the ship to look for the family, the rest of the passengers weren’t allowed to disembark until 8.30 and it was still a little bit before that. They weren't very hard to find, they were about the third family in the queue to...

Thanks for reading, and for all your comments. I hadn’t thought about Epcot Forever like that, you’re right whenever Harmonius starts everyone will be saying ‘thank goodness, that other show was awful’. Normally I would agree that it’s lovely to wear shorts in January, but it was just so...

The Splash Mountain photos, just wow! It’s my favourite Magic Kingdom ride and lovely to see such beautiful pictures before it’s rethemed. I must admit I’m a teeny bit jealous of you. I’m really missing Disney at the moment, all my Facebook memories this week have been of our trip 2 years...

Finally caught up. Thanks for sharing, I’ve enjoyed following along, and I’m looking forward to your next report.

Looking forward to reading about your trip, lovely that you had the whole family there. And excited to see all your photos.

Wednesday 15th January: Castaway Cay (challenge) day (cont) There wasn’t much of a wait at the start line, there were less than a thousand runners for this race so nothing like the other runDisney races. Unfortunately no fireworks at the start of this race 😢. So less than five minutes after...

Wednesday 15th January: Castaway Cay (challenge) day This was one of the days I was most looking forward to on our holiday, Castaway Cay is one of my absolute favourite places. It’s weird because I’m not usually much of a beach person but there’s just something about the island that makes me...

Thank you so much. Disney races are definitely addictive, I so want to do another one. Two more cruise days and one race to go.

Tuesday 14th January: Nassau day (cont) It was only about 5.30 when we left Nassau and it was still a few hours to wait till dinner, so on the way back to the room we grabbed some pizza to snack on. I think there may have been some more adult beverages as well. We freshened ourselves up and...

Tuesday 14th January: Nassau day (cont) A few photos leaving Nassau

Tuesday 14th January: Nassau day I always sleep really well on a cruise, super comfy beds and gentle engine vibration are a great combination. I do always seem to wake pretty early though, not a bad thing as I wouldn’t want to sleep through the whole cruise. So this morning I was awake well...

Monday 13th January: Cruise day 1 (cont) I really must get this report finished before I forget absolutely everything. No excuse, other than things are finally getting back to something approaching normal here, and I’ve spent lots of time in the last few weeks catching up with friends after not...
