I’ve only just found your report, I love reading about your meals, I’m slacking! Mouth watering! Thank you for posting. Hot butter beer - who knew?!

I’m wondering how your little dog is? I bet she was really happy to see you home.

Loved the king cake. Strange as we totally expected to love the beignets more.

Thanks. The holiday was great, wasn’t sure what a week would be like but it was brilliant. Also meant our cases were fairly empty so I managed to bring our 200+ strings of beads home in the case. I’ve been teaching my class how to make dogs and stars from them. I can’t imagine how many beads Universal go through.

Confisco was good overall it was just my wrap that was disappointing. The lanyard was great, such good value.

Thanks for reading. I think I prefer Lombards to Mythos, just, food was good at both but Mythos was a little chilly.

The food at Urban Pantry looks good, but hot butter beer sounds delicious!

It feels like ages ago now but I'd totally do another week long trip.
That hot butter beer is the stuff of my dreams

I was trying to find out when they start selling it, you'd think they'd have it in October though.

My wee Noodles is doing well, thanks for asking. She was spoilt rotten by my friend and my mother-in-law while we were away but she was super excited to see us back especially ds.

Haha, surprisingly most of them made it home, not sure how long they will last though.

Yes, the first time in around the last 15 visits that I've booked a Virgin Holidays package holiday. Because of the flight prices, and lack of reward flights, from Manchester this year I couldn't get near the price (£1000 pp) doing it DIY
Looking forward to your July trip

Thanks winter breaks are great. We certainly picked a great week to be away from the weather here and had glorious weather there.

Is that a Halloween time countdown you have?
