    Paul carrying me over the threshold of our brand new villa with the biggest bottle of champagne we could find and the kids swimming in the pool for the very first time!!!

    Walking into Magic Kingdom (every time) and seeing Cinderellas Castle!!

    ....and the first time we saw Tinkerbell fly out of the castle down the rope, with all the fireworks going off in the background.....
    and then the electrical parade....wow

    [No sweeter life than this, to roam without a care.
    Sweet memories of florida, with family to share.
    So much to do, so much to see, new places to explore.
    Please hurry on september, and i,ll be there once more.
    Until then only memories of that beloved place.
    Precious thoughts, far off land,warm sunshine on my face.

    Are we nearly there mum.??

    And then the Champayne hit my head and I passed out on the bed - bang goes my evening


    Yes Hamish the rest of the honeymoon was great - apart from the puncture in the Everglades, not the best place to change a tyre!!

    Our 1st trip (1993) has to have been the most magical, everything you do, everything you see is just so new and so different from anything you have experienced before - pure magic.

    The first sight of Disney
    The first time you see Shamu - Love at 1st sight
    A shuttle launch.

    Our 1st trip was supposed to be a once in a lifetime holiday, you don't realise untill you have been how addictive it is. We are out on the 10th July - our 9th trip!

    That first morning, on our first ever trip to Florida, we stayed at the all stars resort remember waking up around 6am stepping outside looking up at the blue sky and thinking "were here a lifelong dream come true", i must admit i became quite emotional we've been several times since but that moment will always stay with me
    and Shamu rocks i love it, does anyone know the playlist for the show

    IOA. Jurassic Park River Adventure. When the boat bangs open the gates to the 'secure area' my daughter freaked.. "NO... We shouldn't go this way..!!"
    She must have been the designers perfect rider.. absolutely fell for it..!
    Her Mum got soaked on the way down as well, which cheered everyone up..!

    Our first morning on Fort Myers Beach.. The Gulf like a millpond. Up to my knees in water as warm as a bath. Daughters splashing happily 20 yards away. Wife enjoying a book back on the beach. Idyllic..
    Suddenly.. (drum roll please..) I see a fin break the water then disappear about 30 yards in front of me..
    I look up and down the beach.. no-one has seen it.. (fools..!)
    There it is again... this time closer to the girls..!!
    Mild panic sets in.. I grab the girls by the hands and head off toward the beach at Ben Johnson/Linford Christie pace.. It's all I can do to stop myself hollering "SHARK..!!"..
    I drop to my knees on the beach panting.. The girls are whining about the chinese burns on their wrists.. My wife has a bemused expression as I babble incoherently about my sighting...
    "it's a dolphin you berk..!!" and she returns to her book.

    Well I didn't know..!! It was my first time in Florida..!! I was watching out for alligators and gunmen..!
    (needless to say this story is trotted out by my darling daughters at every possible public opportunity..)
