Hi all, not gotten time to get online much since our return on May 22nd but I will be making time to relive it all by doing a full TR very soon! Just said I'd come on and do a highs and lows to start the ball rolling 
So starting with the Lows
- the wait in immigration! Over 2 hours and then the guy we dealt with was a complete pig! Very nice how-do-you-do!
- Budget car rental! One word - AVOID!! The guy we dealt with at the desk was so rude and pushy, I firmly said no extras and he got really stroppy. Didn't realise til we got home that he had added a tonne of extras costing us over $600!! Luckily we rang a really helpful agent who refunded us but thats not the point!!
- the tantrum Will threw on our first MK day! The day I had been dreaming of for months, tantrum lasted about an hour from the time we left the car! He was over tired but after a snooze he loved it, pity bout the tantrum but ya know kids!
- Will had a bout of diarrhea for 2 days which was not fun! On the upside I used Desitin nappy rash cream I got in Walgreens and his nappy rash was gone after one application! Parents take note, this stuff is magic! Needless to say I stocked up
- family trip! This was both a good and bad thing but after spending so much time under one roof with my "loved ones" I'd rather not do it again....as in EVER lol! Great to have a built in baby sitter though
Onto the Highs then....
- Will was a dream child on both the outbound and inbound flights! He had everyone around us charmed! Slept literally the whole way home which meant I got to as well
- Our second MK day was one of my favourite days EVER! Just me and my two boys in my fave place on earth! Bliss!
- Chef Mickey for breakfast! Very pleasantly surprised This is now on our must do list!
- Feeding dolphins at SW. Lovely memory and pics from this experience and only $7 per tray of fish (3 fish per rough on avg) Definitely recommend!
- Discovering the beauty of Bahama Mamas!! Deeeeee-lish!!
- Kraken front row, hands down my fave every time!
- Safari in AK. Without a doubt the best time I've ever been on, I've rode this about 10 times before and its always been a bit bla, this time was excellent. Giraffes came right up to us and got great views of everything! Will absolutely loved it too
- The weather! It was fabulous every single day.
And I saved my best news for last! We brought back that souvenir we were hoping for - I'm due baby #2 in February 2014! Another Disney stowaway like Will was lol
