Ridley Family's DxL/POR NOT CAMPING Holiday Feb 2001

[Fiona R from UK]

I have plucked up courage to post on these huge US DIS boards (as well as our homely UK DIS) and thought I would see if anyone "over there" is interested in our first ever holiday to WDW earlier this year!!

Now all the reports (originally posted on UK DIS) are on a family web site with pictures at:

Hope you enjoy them!!

Wow, that report was great! I really loved the layout of your website. The photos and character pictures were awesome! You must have put a lot of work into it. Thank you for sharing it with us.

I liked how you set up a web page and had all the photos. I like how you recapped it at the end and had everyone's input. I also liked how you had your plan for each day first and then what actually happened. Very well thought out, entertaining and enlightening. Sorry that Cocoa Beach didn't work out. It sure was nice that you were on holiday for so long and could space everything out. We stayed at Port Orleans-Riverside too, Bdlg 27, May 19-26. We enjoyed it very much also. We wanted to try the French Quarter's pool (so nice to see a good picture of it) but we were there for 7 days and ran out of time. Seems like you had a great trip! Thanks for sharing it with us.

great report !
Your layout was so good. It must have taken you forever to get it finished.
I enjoyed the comments on your DH's reaction to the different aspects of the trip. He and my DH must share many of the same personality traits. My DH gets that I will suffer for my family look on his face at every parade.
Thank you for an entertaining afternoon read.

WOW! What a great site you made! I am impressed! Thanks so much for sharing. I am glad you enjoyed your Holiday here!

Thanks everyone for your kind words.

Karen - I realise it looks like DH was miserable, the "cutesy" bits wind him up but otherwise he had a great time!!

The pages did take a while, as it was my first attempt!! Worked on the basis that it was an online "scrapbook" for us. I must say that once I started I did get a bit (LOL) tedious as I kept asking DH (he's the IT expert) how to do this and that. I would not have been satisfied with a simple solution!!

Thanks once again

I just finished your whole trip report. Your humor is great and had me laughing! You took wonderful pictures and I think your Website is the best I have visited! Thanks so much for sharing. I am glad you had a good Holiday here in the USA. I hope you can come back and visit again before 2006!

Thanks again for the report!
