What is Inside Wonderworks on I Drive?
As a family, we’ve been going to Florida on and off for about 8 years. Previously with my parents, I’d been 4 or 5 times. It has always been somewhere we loved going as there is so much to do. No matter how many times you go there are always more reasons to return. Wonderworks…

Trapped in a room with an Alpha Male!
I love a challenge and as it was my Birthday, I had one choice to make. What do I really want to do that is special and I’d not done before… in Orlando. OK, I’m lying the kids had the first choice of a day at Aquatica, but as it was packed on Labor Day…

Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party 2018
On our “Budget” holiday we chose not to buy Disney Park tickets to try and save some money but spotted that Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party was on during our holiday. For us, it was a good option to get some “cheaper” Disney Magic and bring home a sack of souvenirs! Mickey’s Not So…

We’re already a couple of weeks through the school holidays and the kids have started to say the “B” word. Unless they can site watching Youtube for the remainder of the holidays.

Booking a £2000 holiday to Florida in the Summer School Holidays
I had a theory and I did some research and there was a chance it would be possible. As a family we love Orlando and Florida, there is something addictive about the country. Is it simply the sunshine and happy holiday feelings? It’s got to be more than that as you’d get the same in Spain. Maybe…

Buying a Lay Z Spa Vegas Has Changed Our Lives!
The title says it all and it’s a bit of a wild statement, but it is so true on many levels. Hot Tubs, Spas, and Jacuzzis. After a recent trip to see our friends in Great Yarmouth, our kids got to experience their Lay Z Spa. I’ll admit I was a “mick” taker and mocked his…

Our Website was Hacked!
Technically this is a lie, but for the best way of describing it, it is the same. We were camping in the Lake District, having a fun long weekend for the School Half Term Holidays. Unknown to us our hosting company had detected some strange activities on our website hosting account. A set of files…

Puppy Dog Pals Toys
Last Christmas we introduced two little tiny dwarf hamsters into our family. Two adorable little balls of fluff. We never really knew that over the following few months we’d find out that they have two different personalities. The Hoopster Hamsters (when no one is looking) are seriously training for something! We received a bundle of Puppy Dog Pals…
