Thank you as ever Amanda xx

Really enjoyed your report. We're having 2 nights in New York after Orlando so it's helped with choices of attractions.

Thank you for reading. Very jealous of your time in New York, I loved it there and will definitely return. I'm glad the report has helped you in your planning, have an amazing time :grin:
