It is always so sad the day you fly home especially when you are scared of flying!

We packed all our cases including our extra new one and still had to leave the beers and Sara's alcopops as none of us had any spare space. We ate everything we could from the fridge and threw the rest away.

As we were flying BA we decided to go early to the airport as no downtown disney drop off. I was really pleased to find the earrings I had been looking for in the disney airport shop. The silver mickey ones I saw in the shop after the splash mountain ride. The plane took off early and we arrived early just at 6.00 a.m. I used a technique during the flight I had seen on a TV programme about holding your ear real tight and thinking of something really nice you have done before. It seemed to work as for the first time ever I was able to watch a whole film. In fact I watched two.

When we arrived back I couldn't believe how smoothly things had gone the whole trip and I mentioned it to Lisa. I must have jinxed things as while Lisa, me and the kids were waiting at the entrance of the Sofitel (where we had stayed two weeks ago) we realised that Mark and Maurice were taking ages to come back with the cars. We waited, and waited for what felt like for ever. It turned out Mark had left his wallet in the shuttle bus but it was found eventually after a very stressful time for Mark and of course the rest of us waiting for them.

Final thoughts: This was a great holiday and I was especially pleased with Saratoga Springs Resort which is where we will stay in August before and after our Disney Cruise. Not too sure about the two grand gathering events that I organised. These may work out better for a large gathering who are all Disney obsessed. I am glad I did them though as I may never get a chance to do them again. Everest was great but did make me feel a little sick. Still the yeti is cute. Just loved Victoria and Alberts and will definately do again in August. It is always nice to take your friends with you so thanks to Lisa, Maurice, Jack, Megan, Terry and Sara for sharing our Disney Vacation home with us.

Just can't wait to go back again.
