Really need to think about...

passports! Ben and Charlie need to get a move on now, 9 months and a bit to go!!! :D

Little more paid off :D

Christmas is over so we can get back to paying off this holiday!

£790 left to pay for the holiday...

£490 left to pay for the holiday...

$100 so far on the US card

And 75.9% paid off!!

Little bit more off...

Christmas is putting a hold on paying more off at the minute! Almost done so should be paying fof more soon!

Starting to save spending money...

Another £50 of both the holiday and the tickets making £940 and £490 remaining!

With just over 10 months to go I'm going to start saving little and often on my post office travel card (fairfx lost $400 of my money and are now refusing to return it so I will never use them again) so we don't end up with a mad rush trying to save enough :D

The holiday and tickets are being paid in £50 payments, but even if I just put £10 on my post office card when I can, or when I see the rate go up, it'll soon add up :D

Woohoo!!!

Past the 1k mark!!

I now owe £990 for the holiday and £540 for the tickets! :D

We've had all the Disney songs playing this week and I've been making my self so excited again! Looking at the dull weather and freezing temperatures here makes me want to go even more. And Discovery Cove...wow I can't wait!

Almost past the 1k mark!

My next payment will get me past the 1k remaining mark for the holiday! Now at £1040 :D

It's been ages again!!

Over week since my last payment! £50 off the holiday, £50 off the tickets :D

Getting so close! We really need to get Ben and Charlie's passports sorted soon as well.

One more £50 off the holiday, looking bleak this will be paid off by Christmas but my birthday target is about on track :D

New total...

£1190 left for the holiday!

£640 left for the tickets!!

£1830 in total left to pay!!! £3473.10 already paid off which is 65.5%! Woop! :D

Another £50!

Off the holiday making £1190 left! Yay!! £690 for the tickets :D So close!!

We really must get Ben and Charlie's passports done fairly soon just in case there are any delays.

It's coming down!!

Another £50 off the holiday and £50 off the tickets!! :D

Getting so close!

Where to eat...

Another £50 off the holiday making £1290 left!!!

I've been looking at places to eat too. :D There are a couple we tried last time we just HAVE to do again, like the Spiderman breakfast, Mama Melrose and Coral Reef :D

I had a few booked last time that I had to cancel like Teppan Edo and Boma which we might do next time.

On the DEFINITE list are;

Sanaa - Spice for Ben, loads of options for the rest of us, get to visit AKL

Whispering Canyon - The entertainment and fun!

Coral Reef - The mahi mahi was mouthwatering, I have to have it again, tank a bonus feature

Mama Melrose - gorgeous dinner and excellent service last time

Spiderman breakfast - Fantastic character interaction, loads of food

'Ohana breakfast - was a lot of fun, loads of food, in the Poly

Rose & Crown pub in UK Epcot - UK grub plus fireworks viewing if booked in for 8pm

California Grill - Gorgeous views, get to visit Contemporary, fireworks viewing.

MAYBE'S are;

Teppan Edo = dinner made in front of us which kids will love, sushi for me, variety for the others

Boma = AKL again, buffet so lots of choice, great atmosphere

Beaches and Cream = The kitchen sink!

Got loads of time to decide and will probably yet again change round like it did last time but worth a think :D

It's been too long!

£50 more off tickets and £50 more off the holiday :D

More!

£1390 left on the holiday. £790 left on the tickets!

It's coming down...

Another £50 towards the holiday making £1440 remaining! :D

And £50 towards the tickets making £850 remaining! :D

I can't believe how much has been paid off already! It was booked just under 11 weeks ago, seems like it's been booked forever!

I'm looking at the kinds of things we'll be doing, planning a bit already, seeing if there's anything new or different since 2009 :D

Under a year to go!!!! :D

Yesterday it was a year until we go :D So now I can say we're going back to Florida within the next year! Yay!

£50 off both tickets and holiday, woop!!!

Oh go on then...little bit more :D

Another £50 off the holiday making £1540 left! :D

Thanks to my job...

Anther £50 of both the holiday and the tickets paid off!

Making £1590 left of the holiday and £950 for the tickets :D

I also got a pre-paid UK credit card that includes bank details so I'm hoping it'll work with paypal so my profit from ebay can go directly to the card. If it works; have a feeling it won't because it's not a 'proper' bank. But even so I can put money from ebay on there for now.

I have the fairfx card as well but the rate is so rubbish at the minute I don't want to put anything on there just now so will use the UK pre-paid credit card to save on, then use that to put money on fairfx if/when the rate goes up :D
