My Father The JetSetter

[saratogagirl]

My dad who has never been further than Spain before has just got back from Las Vegas after the boxing in Saturday.
Following on from the Celebrity at Disney World I thought I would share with you, he is now officially a star spotter, he got passes to the after show party and saw Cat Deeley, Tom Jones, Catherine Zita Jones, Sylvester Stallone, Arnie, Al Pacino, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Bruce Willis and a short actor ????
He has the photos to prove it and is now officially Star Struck. He loved Las Vegas and is now planning to be a Jet Setter, he reckons he is going back to Vegas or maybe New York in November.
I am so pleased for him, Ian and I are still laughing at his enthusiasm, he says America has spoilt him for other places, he has been a widower for nearly seventeen years so to have seen him have this new experience and loved it so much is wonderful. Who knows I may even get him to Orlando.

How fab, Jules! So happy he had a great time! Sounds to me like he'd definitely enjoy Orlando too - you'll have to start booking those 1 beds now...

I'm so pleased that your dad enjoyed his trip. How cool to see all those celebrities. Maybe you'll be able to get him to WDW after all

You are right Nat, they def have more money to spend, and I am so glad to see him do it at last. I have no doubt that he wont mind me sharing his piccies with you. I just have to get the camera from him, his birthday was in March so we got him a digital camera for his trip, I will try to get it from him when he has stopped flashing his piccies about

What a fantastic trip for him and what a bonus seeing all those stars.

Now get planning a trip to take him to WDW - there is nothing like showing it to someone for the first time.
