Florida Part 2!


So in my last post we got to day 3 Discovery Cove! 
Already 3 full days into our holiday and it felt like it was whizzing by, next stop Busch Gardens. As per last year we went and done the interaction with the Giraffes of the serengeti safari- This is an amazing experience and not one to be forgotten,  they also do really good deals on the photo package afterwards. 

We caught the free shuttle bus to Busch Gardens therefore not having to drive so we stayed until closing time, so it is a slightly long day!  We finished the day off just heading straight back to Cabana Bay as we were so so tired and the next day was another early one!
As we headed to Seaworld, we were there for opening as we didn't want to spend all day there. We watched the new Clyde and Seamore show which was brilliant, and we went on all of the attractions! In the evening we headed out to go shopping at the outlets, this year I didn't think it was as good as previous years.. So hopefully next year will be better!

Such a chilly place but so wonderful to see these amazing animals so up close and personal! 

On the 4th of November we were supposed to go to Aqautica but it was horrible weather so we just went to Florida Mall for shopping instead. In the evening we headed to Blue Man group, we had guest list. But if i had to pay for it I would. It was an amazing show and to be enjoyed by all!


We finished our night at NBC Sports Grill & Brew, I had the most amazing burger there and the service was fantastic. It's definitely somewhere i'd return without a doubt.

MOVING DAY... So half way through our holiday we moved to Disney's All Star Sports. Our room was quickly made up, however we went to Animal Kingdom for the day so didn't get to our room until later. First up we headed to Kilimanjaro Safari's as we had Fast passes, we actually didn't wait that long so it was pretty good. We got Animal Kingdom done pretty fast, and then we headed to our dining reservation at Rainforest Cafe. I had a turkey sandwich... Which I personally didn't like. So note to self don't get one of those again!

After Rainforest Cafe we headed back to the hotel so we could unload our cases and get into our room. For the rest of the evening we just chilled out!

6th November- Today we headed to Magic kingdom, it was a pretty sweltering day so walking around the park was a struggle especially being paled skin and the sun beaming down on me. So we didn't stay too long instead we got what we wanted doing via our fast passes and then we headed back to the hotel for a swim. In the evening we headed to Chef mickeys, we drove to the contemporary resort as we wasn't sure on what time transportation would be stopping as it was a really late reservation. It was nice but it wasn't as nice as it has been in previous years!




Anyway by now you're probably all tuning off so I'll do a part 3 so stay tuned! You can keep up to date with our Vlogs here: Natalie andJamie's 

Until next time

Family time, New Starts and Deadlines

It's December 1st, officially meaning I can be joyful about Christmas. 
Jim bought me a Benefit advent calendar, which I am very grateful for and super excited to start opening. 

I've been back in the UK just over 2 weeks and I'm having serious holiday blues, especially making the vlogs and flicking through photo's. Along with editing, I am snowed under with college assignments. However i'm getting through the pile, Mathematics and Psychology really aren't my strongest subject! I will pass them though. 

I'm also in the countdown to my final shifts, I'm leaving my current job to go work in a new environment and will hopefully get me more experience to go with my Nursing degree which i'll be undertaking in September... Super excited to do something i've always wanted to do.

So this Christmas me and Jim are dividing ourselves between both our families so they all get a fair share! Last Christmas was a blessing to have off and so is this one, especially after i'm so family orientated. 

We're also in the progress of making future plans for Florida... So i'm curing my holiday blues by planning a new adventure to my second home.

So....

Large wooly jumpers, long winter walks and evenings by the fire are welcomed. I wish you all well  wishes over the festive period and I hope you all have a fabulous time....


Until next time
