Phil, Emma & Ben's Christmas Special :: Day 1 (Video Trip Report)

[emmalouisenicholson]

Hi everyone,

Here is Day 1 of our Christmas trip to Walt Disney World.

Firstly, thankyou to those of you who commented and supported the production of our 2009 WDW trip report videos and our 2010 Cruise trip report videos. It really makes all the time and effort that Phil puts into recording and producing them worth while!

Background
We had already booked to go to Florida at Christmas back in October 2010, unaware at this point that I would be selected for the 2011 Walt Disney World Mom's Panel This meant that I was flown out to Florida for Mom's Panel training in mid December and was back home for less than a week before we all went for Christmas. Hectic to say the least!

Booking late meant that it was around £1000 cheaper to fly indirect via Dublin with Aer Lingus. That shouldn't be a problem should it?

Cast
Phil (32) Emma (30) and Ben (7)

This year the Videos will be uploaded in full HD. To view at 1080p, change the 360p tab to 1080p on the bottom bar of the video. If your connection stuggles, leave it as it is!

Day 1 - The Journey

Thanks for watching!

Oh no, what a start My heart sank when I saw the words ' 3rd attempt at landing' and then it got worse. I bet you wish they'd shut the airport before they let you on the plane. What a disappointment for Ben .

Great video

AMAZING video, not such a good day one though! Congratulations on getting picked to be on the Mom's panel.

Thanks Claire!

Not the best of starts to our holiday but at the same time it could have been a lot worse. Hope you enjoy the rest of the videos once Phil has edited them

Glad that you are enjoying them!

My partner Phil uses Magix Movie Edit Pro 15 to edit the videos.
He is an Electrician and just enjoys doing this as a hobby in his spare time.

He should consider going pro, he is darn good at it. I am looking forward to his next project.

I just looked it up and see they have Movie Edit Pro 17 HD Plus.

Hi Emma
Just wanted to say thanks to you and Phil for the great, informative and inspiring video logs. My kids love watching them, and we booked the 7 day Med Cruise this year after seeing your report.

We watched all your WDW 2009 vids and were again blown away by the content and production - amazing work Phil.
Can't wait for the whole series of the Christmas trip - Looks like it's going to be WDW for us in 2012!

Thanks for the entertainment and inspiration.

Hi Andy,

Thanks so much for your lovely comments!

I am sure that you will have a fantastic time on your Cruise! We all absolutely loved it and hope to set sail on the Disney Dream as part of a future trip to
WDW.

Glad that you are enjoying the Video Trip Report of our Christmas trip so far! Phil is working on Day 4 as we speak which should hopefully be posted on Saturday.
