Welcome... Welcome..Welcome… do sing along whilst you read;)

Welcome back:wavey: to anyone who has read before, the very fact you have clicked at least shows you are interested in what you read before and hopefully even found some handy tips for your own trips to The Magic.

If you are reading for the first time - welcome and just be assured the previous six trips have always got to the end and your winter/ Spring and early summer reading is heading this way:blush:

The earliest ever start to a trip report- I've beaten last year by 23 hours and with more time to write than I have ever had before, I'm hoping for a early finish too;)


Every comment is always appreciated:cool2: as it really does make me keep typing and I do try to reply to everyone with a question either on the main thread or by PM.:wavey::wavey:

Hope you enjoy the journey.:wave:


For one last time...


In Glorious Spectromagic, I present,

Going Out in a Blaze of Glory - Our Summer of Sorcery 2019


If you want to read what has happened before - you can read all of our trip reports by just clicking here


2019 will be indexed below, but first, let me introduce the cast for the curtain call!

Me - chief planner/ dibber and a presenter on the new podcast - The Great British Mickey Waffle - Episode links are here:thumbs-up I'll say it once, part of this trip involves my half century celebrations:erm:



My DW, who simply puts up with my own desire to be in Florida, yet also knows it is her only time in the year in which she does not need any allergy medication nor an inhaler for asthma.

As mentioned in previous trip reports - and even more worthy of mention again – it is her full time working that means we can do all of this stuff. Thank you! xx:heart:
We celebrate our 20th Wedding Anniversary - always an excuse to look at how young we used to be before the kids turned up:pgig:



Eldest DS Josh 15 – Again summer golf chances messed up , although an offer to spend a month in the UK was declined. GCSE results day meant we had an early start and finish this year ( you could sense the nerves rising as the holiday wore on:erm:) At least it was his 16th birthday just a few days after:d:

Youngest DS Joe 12 – Drummer and the comedian in the family
( sometimes inadvertently) his golf has improved 100% again since last year and is the only member of the family to have played at Twickenham. Before the All Blacks game last Autumn:cool2:



Everything else is in the Pre-trip report - it is well worth a read as it explains how we ended up with some bargain flights and a whole lot more:spin::spin:

Congratulations on making 20 years 😂 👍🏻 And Celebrating your 50th.

Wow Josh looks so grown up - pretty sure his results will have been brilliant so a big well done to him too!

Wow Joe at Twickenham 😎. Hope it was an awesome experience and he enjoyed every minute of it, although again, I’m pretty sure he did. 😃

Really looking forward to reading this trippie as all your previous ones have been a joy to read not only for the great tips and ideas but also to read the joy and love you all have for each other (and as a family together) whilst having the most incredible fun on holiday.
