Just two months after Alan’s run at the Disneyland Paris Half Marathon, we were heading to the Disney’s Sequoia Lodge Golden Forest Club at, with the girls in tow for some Disney festive fun. The red-eye 6 am flight from Newcastle was still a bit of a killer when the alarm when off at 3…

Moana – Disney’s Moana Review
Moana has taken control of the Disney Princess parade (OK she’s not a princess). We’ve recently come back from Disneyland Paris, where we managed to catch up with Moana (Called Vaiana there). As soon as we knew she was available for a meet and great we needed to get a photo. Our two wanted Moana’s…

Disneyland Paris Half Marathon Day 3
The build up to today had taken nearly 18 months. I’m not joking! From not being able to run for 3 minutes, all the way to running 16km in one go. The Disneyland Paris Half Marathon had been a focus on my training and a target to hit to keep me motivated. And here we…

Yo Ho yo Ho a Pirates life for me! I’m not sure if I would want a pirates life as I’m too used to the home comforts of cleanliness, coffee and a memory foam mattress. I would deal with the eye patch, as a child the eye hospital made me wear a plaster on one…

Finding Dory
Finding Nemo was a surprise hit for me, we went to the Odeon at the Gate to see it (Before Children aka B.C.). I had expect to enjoy the rich colours and animation, but ended up being sucked into the story and actually laughing out loud. The Scene where Dory talks whale was the scene…

The Jungle Book
Nearly 50 years ago, Walt Disney released the original animated version of the Jungle Book. Inspired by the book of the same name by Rudyard Kipling. The was also the last animated film that Walt Disney himself produced. Obviously I can’t remember the original release, but I can remember my Mum taking me to see a…

Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique Makeovers.
When I say our Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique Makeovers, I mean Imogen and Abigail’s. I dare say being the Dad in our family I’d get too much attention in a princess makeover. Last summer we were in Walt Disney World, for what could be the last time for a long while. As a result we decided…
