FLORIDA

Dead beat at last
Hawian Party

Goofy's the one in the middle


Fun at the Blizzard Beach

We are having the most amazing time here in Florida. Have spent some great days in the Parks, my favourite so far being The Magic Kingdom. We were all dressed in our Deantours T shirts, and got to join the Parade. We were given Hula Hoops with streamers attached, then taught a routine. We marched along, it was such a magical moment!

The weather has been just perfect, about mid 70s, but they give it getting hotter the next few days.Dick and I have had a quiet day to ourselves round the pool as the rest have gone to watch an American Football game. Parks have been very busy, although we have been up and out by 8am to be there when they open, but it has been a Holiday week this week because of Thanks Giving, so it should quieten down next week, when the children go back to school.

It doesnt seem a bit like Christmas with blue skies and sunshine, but everywhere you go they are playing Christmas music, and all the decoration are up and lights on. We are definately in for a rude awakening when we get back home.

Elliot had to go to the Doctors this morning as he has an ear infection, but he is now on antibiotics, so hopefully will soon be feeling better, but apart from that everyone is fine, and we are all getting along fine. The Villa is so large that if you want to escape for sometine to yourself you can.

Love to everyone,

DEANTOURS IN DISNEYLAND

Here we are in Disneyland . We have joined Deanstours in this wonderful villa .It is absolutely fabulous. Had a magical day yesterday when we went to The Magic Kingdom and actually went on the parade down Main Street, everybody thought it was wonderful.

Having a great time, this villa really has got the WOW FACTOR.

We found San Francisco quite cold after Honolulu , but it is lovely and warm here.

Junes phone has had no signal since we have been in the States, apologies to anyone who may have text her, and guess what, I went in the Spa with mine in my pocket, so needless to say that is not working now.

Will update you in a few days.

Love June and Dick

ALOHA FROM HONOLULU

Wow ! Shaun this is some Marriott, the best yet. The lobby is the size of Wembley Stadium. Shops, Restaurants, Waterfalls and Palm trees etc. Been swimming in the pools and today on the beach (which is just yards across the road) and in the sea. Plenty of surfing going on.

Weather very warm but there is a nice breeze all the time,thankfully.

Couldnt resist the shirts , just had to buy one.It will cause a bit of a stir at the Con Club.

Penny I dont know if you have bought any gear for our carribean night,but we can buy Leis for a dollar each.Please let us know.

We are going to do an organised trip to Pearl Harbour. Dont fancy getting a car .The roads are very busy.

No Internet cafes anywhere am writing this on the tele in the room.
