We are a family of 3 (dh & I, both 34) and dd (going aged 7, returning an 8 year old!). We have 2 significant celebrations during our trip- dh & I' s 7th wedding anniversary and dd's 8th birthday. We are staying on site at port Orleans riverside and we have upgraded to the ddp.

We are flying with virgin from Manchester & will be staying over the night before. Probably the raddisson blu but I haven't booked it yet.

We have both been following slimming world. I have lost just under 3 st and dh has lost just under a stone. I'm hoping to be near the 5st mark when we go.

We have been to Orlando before in 2015 when we stayed at Disney's art of animation resort. This will be a year of firsts for us- travelling with va, having the dining plan, staying at POR, MNSSHP, discovery cove & celebrating an occasion when we are out there. Also possibly the most exciting- epcot food & wine festival!

The title (although I'm sure many of you have guessed) is a play on words based on the name slimming world use for their 'points', syns.

I have made a few adrs-
breakfast
Garden grill
Crystal palace
Ohana
Tusker house
Kona cafe
1900 park fare

lunch
Beaches & cream
Be our guest
Liberty tree tavern

dinner
Via napoli
The boat house
Rainforest cafe
Ohana
Saana
Chef art's homecoming

Hoping to fit boma in somewhere, and also we will be doing done with shamu and a few offsites and we have quick serves to use too! Plus all the snacks. It's going to be a smorgasbord!
Some great choices there. Congrats on the weight loss. I have lost 2st so far with SW, another 4.5st to go.

Enjoy it and don't worry, it's only 2 weeks, and you will be doing lots of walking!

We are on the dining plan and having the 2 weeks of sw. Just going to take the gain on the chin and have a brilliant time!

For Me, the food is a big part of the trip, I fell in love with American breakfasts last time 😃😃
