We're finally here!!

Hi

Landed yesterday afternoon, now sat by the pool, warming up already!!

Flew with Thomson/First Choice and have to say was excellent. From Manchester, we took advantage of the day before check in which was hassle free. Our usual stay at the Radisson was as usual, good! The next morning, just collected our boarding cards and we were through!

The flight was brilliant. We were in premium which was fantastic from start to finish. Attentive cabin crew - 2 for 35 passengers. Good choice of entertainment and edible food !!

If anyone wants to know anything more, feel free to ask!

Relaxing this morning then off to play mini golf Winter Summerland, this afternoon followed by an early tea at Boma

Then meeting with my mum, stepdad, brother, sister in law and their DD 6 and DS 5 2m for Magic Kingdom

Sat in the villa, totally stuffed, watching a magnificant thunderstorm! Enjoyed a good game of mini golf at the WinterSummerland course, but was sooo hot, nearly 100 degrees. Then went across to the beautiful Animal Kingdom Lodge and had my first cocktail of the holiday...the blue light up Martini

Enjoyed Boma but I think because I'd been trying to lose weight before I came out, my appetite has diminished and I was full after my starter of yummy salad, coleslaw and houmous!! I managed to force down some salmon, chicken and steak however

Pudding beat me and I was gutted to only be able to manage a small mouthful of banana bread pudding!

Had a little look round to reminisce about our stay there 3 years previously then went across to visit my mum and co at All Stars.

Hi Clairelly

Sounds like a nice smooth start to your hols

Can i ask if you though the seats in premium were much wider than the regular seats (if you had a chance to look at the normal cabin).. im about as wide a a barn door so have booked premium from Gatwick in November and im keen to know if im still going to be elbowing the poor person next to me in the mush everytime i scratch my nose or not

 

[clairelly]

Yes, in my opinion, the seats are much wider. Myself and DH had the 2 side seats and they are sooo roomy. At no point were we cramped. Our DS twin boys are well over 6 foot and they too felt they had plenty of room

Sounds like you are having a great time
Can't wait to hear about the rest of your trip
