What a week, and what a brilliant birthday weekend!
It's hard to believe that this time last week we were registering at the Newport Bay Club reception desk.
It's a lovely hotel, with excellent service and well trained staff - highly recommended.
Our spacious bedroom had a very comfortable queen-sized bed, and French windows opening up into the garden, overlooking the lake. It was truly magical, just right for us.
Friday night found us in the main Disneyland Park. We were pleased that the queues were very short, so managed a cruise on both Pirates of the Caribbean and It's A Small World and still had plenty of time left to enjoy the evening parade, fireworks and of course some good French food and wine.
It brought back fond memories of 1994, the last time we were there with my brother's young family. We had to keep going on It's A Small World with our 6 year old nephew because he was completely enchanted by it. Anyone who has been there will know how the music just sticks in your mind!
A bit like 'I know a song that gets on your nerves!' Sorry - lol
I spent my birthday enjoying the Walt Disney Studios and all the goodies on offer - I even got a birthday kiss from Mickey - even though he was a little shy. Then another lovely meal and relaxing hotel evening to follow.
Sunday saw us back in Disneyland where we had a marathon day doing all sorts of good things - again very small queues - so it was perfect.
I walked my socks off, and didn't my body know about it! My only purchase was a packet of plasters for my poor feet and toes - only just getting better now - almost a week later.
Monday was going home time, so we spent the morning limping around the lake and enjoying a leisurely lunch on the hotel patio. It's amazing what a nice bottle of wine can do to relieve pain - lol
And here we are home again and getting back to normality - whatever that is - and guess what, it's the weekend again, so time for another little break. Also time to start looking for decent timed Malaga flights for our Sept/Oct break, that might well be the next time we see any sunshine. Whatever happened to our promised summer here?
Oh, nearly forgot! I had some lovely cash presents over at the Birthday Bonus Club, so if you havn't joined yet, go and have a look here - it's really exciting.
Well, tonight sees yet another mega EuroMillions rollover jackpot - this time it's £49million, so if you're not yet in it, why not try your luck with 36 lines for only a fiver? You never know your luck and the two star balls are already guaranteed! Now what part of the world shall I book for with my winnings - teehee!
Have a great weekend

Thought for the day:
The things that come to those who wait may be the things left by those who got there first!
