Booking

We are gonna book some things to do in the next week, such as



Cirque du soleil
review

All members of our party (adults and teenagers) were fascinated by this show! We got the cheapest tickets, which were up higher. I think those seats are actually better than the ones on the floor since a good portion of the performance takes place in the air.

We absolutely loved La Nouba. Not one word was said the entire show, but even the teens were still fascinated all the way through.

Blue man group



and a review

With its striking multimedia images, vaudeville-inspired stage antics and primal drumming rhythms, Blue Man Group is truly a one-of-a-kind entertainment phenomenon. An estimated 12 million people worldwide have seen Blue Man Group performances, with productions currently running in New York, Boston, Chicago, Las Vegas, Orlando, Berlin, Oberhausen, Stuttgart and Tokyo.

MNSSHP - Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party

'If you've never been to Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party (called MNSSHP by Disney Fanatics like myself), you've just got to go! It is a wonderful opportunity to experience a true Disney Halloween. Unlike Halloween Horror Nights at Universal (whose objective is to scare the daylights out of you!), the object of the Disney party is to bring the ultimate Halloween fantasy to families.

With 19 party nights scheduled, Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is a one-of-a-kind Halloween bash that immerses guests in the fantasy of Magic Kingdom -- and it's bigger than ever in 2007.

Guests are invited to dress in costumes and trick-or-treat through the park from 7 p.m. to midnight each evening (the party begins after park closing and requires a special ticket). The family-friendly fun includes the newly expanded "Boo-to-You" Halloween parade and the bewitching "Happy HalloWishes" fireworks spectacular. The most popular Magic Kingdom attractions are operating, too.'





think we have to dress up for this, so prob go to walmart and get costumes exciting huh!


Makahiki Luau, SeaWorld's Polynesian Feast and Celebration

Sea World salutes the sea of the Polynesian Islands every day at a nightly luau celebration, complete with island foods and dancing. At this indoor production, you'll feast on such South Pacific favorites as pu pu platters, teaming pineapples, coconuts and other island favorites, plus fresh fish and roasted pork. Talented South Pacific dancers perform traditional island dances, hula hands weaving a tale of island history as drums thunder and fires blaze. Performances feature dramatic lighting, fire, and smoky special effects. A cocktail is included in the adult admission price and soft drinks are offered for children. The show is presented in the Seafire Inn. Park admission is not required and is separate from the price of the Luau tickets.





so think we are booking all of these next weekend hope you enjoy the photos- if anyone has been to one of these let me know

Plan of Action

Hi all, so after becoming addicted to the dibb at the weekend i thought it was time we came with a plan of action.

STAYING- INTERNATIONAL PLAZA RESORT AND SPA- http://www.intlplazaresort.com/
For - 2 WEEKS
WITH- ME-RACHEL IM 25 AND MY BOYFRIEND ROB HES 24

i have been to florida for like 2 days as we passed through while traveling with camp america in 2004, only been to universal though and stayed somewhere in I-Drive.
We did Disney Land Paris last July which we loved but it was only 2 days and rained alot, but we loved it, and it was only in January time we thought to go to America, So we booked in Feb with a 9 mth wait!

but now with 6 WEEKS to go we are getting rather excited.
Rob and i are big Disney fans, rob did his dissertation on Disney at uni we so had to watch alot of the films.
Another reason i am going to Florida is because i scrapbook i love love love it! if you havent heard of it, then find out about it as its a great way of recording stuff.
Anyway the scrapbooking shops are huge and fabulous in America and like half the price of anything here so i am super excited to get my mitts on some of the new stuff that hasnt made its way to UK yet.
