Ok Here we go again I am doing the whole trip reports tonight.

CAST

ANNA (ME) DISNEY NUT
CHRIS (TECH NUT, SHOPPING HATER)

Wake up at the Hilton Manchester Airport at 4am!!! Chris sleeps like the dead so it took nearly another hour to get him up and into the shower. Once hes finally ready and Ive drunk all the coffee in the room (not a great flyer and tired to boot) we get the transfer over to the terminal, because its winter Travel City are not checking in at the station.

We check in only to be told we have been downgraded from sunshine first to enconomy its a nightmare and I could go on all day about it but I am gettin over it now, so will skip it, just say I arnt in the best of moods by then.

On to one of my fave bits of a holiday DUTY FREE!!! I bought at least 4 perfumes (I know) and Chris got me some CKone as well. So I treated him to Jeremy Clarksons book (he laughed half the way to florida reading it).

Saw my parents briefly (as they flew to florida on an early flight). So we went to board our plane, ok flight apart from the seatsand the food was great as were the staff.

Landed. chris and I had to go through customs seperate as we have different names, I went through first and went through fine, so carried on to collect the cases (which were the first two off) but chris hadt joined me so I toddeled back off to see what he was doing at customs just in time to see him being led away, and he was gone an hour!!!!!! yo can imagine the thoughts going through my head, turns out the usa had deported someone with chriss name and were checking it wasnt him lol.

Got the car (chris said the upgrade was too good to miss which I doubt) but we ended up with a grand cherokee. Didnt get lost on the way to pop.

At pop we checked in very easy, we got a room right next the food court (and picked up our tree!!!!!). Heres the tree (I hope)
