My sister bought the DVD yesterday so it is now in the house! I suppose the best kind of housework is housework with Disney in the background :scratching

I was going to update the PTR the other day but wasn't sure whether to or not - maybe I will now! It is definitely worth waiting for :cloud9:
 
Just had a look at your pics on flickr - there great!! Your ears are great, they really set off your hair colour :thumbsup2 very swanky Rach :cool2:

Looking forward to the next installment popcorn::

March 20th
The boys slept well but sadly they both where still not right.
We said we would have another easy day.
We went for breakfast (forgot camera again).
More more I think about it I did like the golden forest breakfast room I do hate some of the other hotels bun fight breakfasts.
So after a relaxing breakfast we went for a chill out back to the room till about one thirty.
We had a ADR at walts for quarter to four and I really wanted to see dreams tonight.
We then headed up to the disney park the boys asked if they could have a buggy I told them you get them free with your dream AP so we went and collected two buggys.
They are great for older kids if the boys where feeling ok we probably won't of got them but the came in handy.
We did IASW buzz and had a look around the shops before we ate at walts.
Walts what can I say the decor is fab.

we have a huge open air museum called beamish It's got a lot of Victorian houses there I said to DH it's just like eating there.
We had the Caesar salad to start it was very nice then the steak that was ok the creme brûlée was nice at all such a shame as one of my favs.
The boys had a mix veg for starter Nathan had a burger Alex had pasta both had Ice cream for pudding.
The ice cream went down well.
I did love the Mickey shaped plates the kids meal came on :love:.
We also got a free cocktail with our dream AP.
I'm pleased we've been to walts but don't think we will go again.
After the meal we where just in time to see the parade the boys loved the new frozen addition as Elsa is there new best princess ever.
DH was very impressed by the parade I pleased to say.
We did a few more rides or more queuing as DH put it ( he doesn't like queuing )
Then decided to try to get a got spot for dreams
We waited around a bit
https://www.flickr.com/photos/121770563@N04/13495550393/in/photostream.
Then got a good spot just left of the castle.
I didn't want to take any pictures of it as I just want to watch it for the first time.
You lovely lot have taken so many that I can look at :goodvibes
What can I say about dreams WOW doesn't cover it I think it's even better than wishes at the magic kingdom.
I cried at the tanged bit I can not wait for my big ds to see it.
My DH thought it was the best light show you will ever see !!
So yes dreams was a winner with us.
After we managed to get through the crowds we ok back the buggys, had a wander round the village bought some t shirts for the boys and some towels that where on special offer.
Then back to the hotel for more of the disney channel and a catch up with what was happening I the world on the iPad.
All asleep by 11.
 
March 21st
Today the boys where feeling much better :banana:
We ate breakfast meeting

We had a great time just taking in the atmosphere before going for the Eurostar home my DH said he really had enjoyed himself And wished he gone before.
We went to collect our cases the to the train station.
Wait in another queue !
I had to open my case to show what was in (dirty washing) two pirate guns together tip never pack your guns together or you may have your dirty under wear all over the Eurostar floor !!.
It's was stress free after that only 15 mins late out of disney 2 vodka later and we where back in london.
The traveloge room was a pretty noisy one and it was hot.
We did have a very nice chicken kebab and chips in the room th boys love eating in the room ( I don't ).
After a pretty sleepless night we where on our way home to durham
