Booked our 2nd trip and then a big surprise!

[pigby]

Already booked our annual 2 week vacation for next summer - off to WDW again (went to DLR this summer). DH and DD very disappointed that we weren't going back to DLR although they do love WDW too.

Well decided to 'sneak a week' to DLR in April - price of flights not TOO bad - a lot cheaper than summer, even though it's 7000 miles (and some people woould say we were mad - going all that way for one week). But hey we have DAP's and hoping to get a good rate at HoJo's with a bit of luck.

An hour after booking flights, I checked my e-mail and amazingly, I had an e-mail to say we had won a break to Disneyland Paris in March - a competition I entered in a magazine in July (after our DLR summer vacation and when I had the Disney blues) - it includes flights, accommodation on Disney property, breakfast and 3 days park tickets - how cool is that! Paris is a little closer for us - only an hour and a half away.

Now I need to get to work on 3 tickers - can't believe we are going to 3 Disney parks next year.

Wow ~ how fun! You are very lucky! I'll be visiting my DBF *he lives in Felixstowe* early next month - I really wanted to visit DLP while I was there but we're saving our money for other things I'm excited to head back to the UK *I visited London for 2 days when I was 16.

So you have ~
DLP in March
DLR CA in April
WDW in the summer *yuck it'll be so hot and humid ~ you'll have fun anyway.

You'll have a very Disney 2011

Thats great 3 in a year. Ive just read about your win on the DLP board and thought how lucky you were.
We are also going to DL for a week - we go next weekend for the half term so you arent the only ones mad enough to go all that way for a week.

Oh hi there Smallworld - fancy seeing you here.

Let me know how you get on for a week - how are you getting there? We will be flying down to London then the Virgin flight from Heathrow. We are just planning doing the 2 parks for 6 days due to shortage of time - how about you?

Train down then flying with BA from Heathrow. We are doing 6 days in Disney including heading there when we arrive (after an 11 hr flight) and hopefully watching the fireworks. Then also doing Sea World and Knotts and an extra evening in DL for the Halloween Party.
I'll be exhausted when I get home - you'll see me wandering round Leigh in a complete daze (Im right you live there dont you?)

Ha - you are - and if I remember rightly, don't you live Westhoughton or Daisy Hill? Funny isn't it that we only live 15-30 minutes away from each other.
