Landed back in Manchester at about 8:40 am today.
Took ages to actually get out of the airport. There was a delay in getting off the flight and then the bags were held up for some reason.
The return journey was tiring - with a stopover of 5 hours in Philly. I didn't sleep much on the way back either. Just couldn't get comfortable.
We went to bed for about an hour when we got home and are now preparing to go to work in the morning. I'll be able to work from home but DH has to go into the office.
We've already rebooked our accommodation for next year. I'll set up another countdown soon!
your day at AK sounds wonderful!!
what "secret turnstyle"?
i have to pay attention next time we're there..
you managed to ride EE twice? DD and i rode it once and both thought we might die...we were fine until the backwards section and then.....
suffice to say, anyone with severe motion sickness issues should avoid it..
it looks innocent enough, but it definitely wasn't for us..
i'm glad i rode it once though....
that cracker barrel breakfast looks yummy!!!
have a safe trip home!!!
The 'secret turnstile' (sorry for my poor spelling last time) is at the back of the Rainforest Cafe and Shop.
Yes - we did EE twice.
Almost accidentally in a way! We got our 2nd FPs for it before we had used the first.
We had done it before when it had first opened. However, I agree it is rather intense when you go backwards! It was only after we'd done it the second time that we each admitted to the other that we hadn't really enjoyed it very much! DH said I actually looked a bit green!
Thanks to everyone for the very kind comments about my updates.
You never really know whether people are interested, so it's nice to get some positive feedback. I'm going to read through it all again at some point this week - to remind myself of what an amazingly wonderful trip we had!
Bye for now!
