At the airport !

Well the time has come to leave Orlando. We have had a great time as I think you probably have already realised. So many adventures, so many laughs and so many horrible photos of me !

The children have been amazing company, we will miss them next week !

Markie has been incredible, looking after us and teasing us all endlessly .... He has done all the driving and cooking.....

Sadly we have to go back to work to earn the pennies for the next jaunt .... Life goes back to normal.

Thank you Markie, Adam, Iona, Nancy and Jess... I have has a blast x

Hello everybody,
I am so sad that we are going home today but I'm looking forward to seeing everyone. The holiday has been amazing with all the cool things we have done!!! Today we are going to play tennis, and it is my last chance to beat Emma! I really hope I beet Iona again! I am now going swimming with Emma as Iona and Nancy are still sleeping! My best two things we did in florida are swimming with dolphins and stingrays, that was fabulous! And - I loved the cruise! I bet you all forgot about that! I loved all the shows that we saw, and going to the Bahamas and coco cay! Overall I have loved the holiday and I give it 1 million out of ten!!!
See you all soon!
Love from Jessica xxxxxxxxx

We went to cici's pizza for tea and the brownies were lush! I can't believe we have almost finished our holiday but it has been the best time! Miss you all xx

despite the incident yesterday ....

we all managed to get to Typhoon Lagoon today...

I am pleased to announce...

Emma and I are out of hospital and recovering well after the shark bites.....

Emma and I were swimming at Discovery Cove....

and came across this underwater hatch which was open. We assumed we could swim through but unbeknown to us one of the employees had left the hatch open by mistake - this was what confronted us once we swan through the hatch.......

My birthday !

What a lovely day..... Yes another one !

Woke up to the children and Mark bringing me in a lovely Pecan pie/cake - yum yum yum !

Jess had made me a wonderful card and I got a pressie from Rachel and another from the gang.

Today I chose Typhoon Lagoon as we had arranged to meet my friend David and his family there, they have also been over here for the last 2 weeks. It was a fun day, the children all got on really well and apart from a few thunderstorm warnings we were on the go all day racing around the water rides.

We all then came back to our villa for showers and changes of clothes before heading out for a pizza/pasta buffet at Cici's (with 'BOGOF' vouchers this time !!). David and Jen then left for their place and we are now home.

Last full day tomorrow, so we are heading East again to the beach for the day. We are not even thinking about Saturday !

Anyway, the children are having a late night party tonight..... Cards, chocolate, lemonade and coke in one of the upstairs bedrooms, Iona's, I think!

I hope they are not too noisy as us old ones need to get our sleep.

Thanks to you all for reading our blog and making it worthwhile, we have enjoyed all of the comments and I hope you have enjoyed our holiday in some part with us.

Hi, everyone we had a great day yesterday swimming with the dolphins! Our dolphin was called Cindey and she could jump in the air really high! I loved the stingrays and me and Emma made a stingray friend and named him Scratchy!!! We went around the river there about 5 times and it was really long! Less than a week now :( but I have enjoyed my self so much! We are going to tiphoon lagoon today with some of Emma's friends! It will be so fun! Miss you all x
