A great trip report. I love DLP. My top tip for in room cup of tea - take your own t bags and small cartons of long life milk - you can get them in supermarkets and the tea tastes quite good.

Thank you so much for reading, I am excited to crack on with writing day 2!

The hotel looks so beautiful. I knew you'd love onsite life!

On writing this I realised every item I ate at breakfast was sugar-based... ah well, I was on my holidays!

Totally sucked into on-site life... this could be a dangerous (and expensive) turn of events!

Thanks for reading along sweetheart

Oh Disney socks are absolutely essential! More to come in the report I assure you!

Looking forward to reading more.

We fell in love with NPB more and more as the trip went on (especially after visiting some of the other hotels... reviews to come later in the report!) It definitely gets my recommendation!

It was the perfect trip for us... a great journey to get there, enough time to explore both the parks fully and a beautiful hotel to top it off... I definitely recommend!

Funnily enough I did actually take tea bags and some long-life milk but just ended up using the instant cups instead... I came to actually quite like them!

Thanks so much for reading, great to know you enjoyed my ramblings!

Thanks so much, I love the travel wallet too! I bought it a couple of weeks before we went so was super excited to use it for the first time! The purse was the perfect gift too and was used all weekend!

Oh I would love it if we were to spot one another in each others photos!

Such a shame we didn't see each other whilst out there!

Also I am very impressed with how quickly you got your full report up... you have put me to shame!

Ah I had some unexpected time off work so took full advantage of it, otherwise there's no way it would be done by now!

I'll have to keep looking closely at your photos just in case 😄
