I'm looking forward to see how you get on with the Ultrasun I've heard fab reviews about it xx

Must admit we were always P20 users but seeing so many say UltraSun even better without staining clothes I thought I would take the plunge! 😂🤞

I’ve been trying ultra sun factor 30 for the first time this summer after reading many great reviews on the dibb! We love it! dd has eczema using most creams but this has been fantastic! I’ll take a look at the site you got yours off as we will need to stock up in factor 50 for next year!

Thank you, I hope I have made the right choices! 🤔😄 glad to hear that re the ultrasun - we all have quite sensitive skin so am hoping no-one has a reaction to it. Will use the kids50+ on DD and think myself and DH will try the sports spray. With any luck I may have the factor 30 left for our December hols 😉🤞

Great minds! With school holidays and wanting just over 2 weeks it was really our only option - preferred the idea of end of hols as opposed to beginning thinking it won't be as crazy with most US schools going back by then 🤞

Time is ticking away! A few little updates!
So all of a sudden the countdown seems to be going so fast and had a little flurry of activity recently
Firstly, we had the email from Charter Travel with all of our confirmations for tickets, hotel and transfer..

Added little bonus of the shopping voucher. Can exchange this at several malls including Premium Outlets 👍
Then when doing my usual check of what seats are still available on our flights (I refuse to pay £600 to book them ), this beauty presented itself to me! -

Unsurprisingly I have opted for the steak Now as DH has no idea we are travelling Club I have taken the executive decision of ordering him the steak too - I know I could wait until on board but worried the steak will be popular option and none left!
Then today I took the first currency plunge and did this -

After the recent fluctuations, the minute Revolut were offering $1.25 to the pound again I exchanged £500. Want to swap another £500 but just going to see how it goes in the next few days
I confess I have also made another ADR change - I really need to stop looking at the menus so hard
Our previously cancelled Flying Fish cafe is reinstated and Jiko has gone. We already have a couple of Boma dinners booked as you know and the Jiko menu was perhaps not entirely to our liking, whereas Flying Fish has lots of yummy options and gives us the chance to explore the Boardwalk a little for the first time (Yes I know, how can I not have done so in 7 precious visits?!)
I may have also looked at flight availability with other carriers for our departure date *just in case* - Norwegian fly at similar time that day and still have seats left. My thinking is if the worst happens and BA strike is on our travel date, will book three flex tickets one way as these are fully refundable, giving us another option if they say they cannot get us there.
Anyway, the countdown continues and as school holidays have now commenced I am sure it will fly by! Off for a mini break in Barmouth tomorrow with DH, DD and DFIL - it's a sign the weather is now pants as we always get rain when we go Hoping for a slight reprieve Monday and Tuesday!
Happy weekend all!

The steak sounds lovely!
$1.25 seems to be as good as it gets at the moment, we were just lamenting earlier being in the States in 2008 when it was $2!

That was the year we went on honeymoon to Disney - ah, the bargains I had at the outlets! 😭😭😭 I do wonder if it will ever be like that again...
Not sure how the PM vote this week will send it so it will be a case of 'suck it and see' I think 😄 How are your plans coming on?
