Natasha&Matts Orlando Adventure Pre Trip **im here**

[Natasha&Matt]

Well with 3 months to go i thought it was about time i done a pre trip report...​

Cast​

Me (Natasha) 26yrs old and a major Disney Freak (as i like to call us haha) Fav Character Ariel!! ​

DBF (Matthew) 24yrs old is a Rollercoaster junkie Fav Character Dumbo (Will be turning 25 while we are out there)​

This is Me & Matt​

We are so excited!! We booked this holiday back in January 2009 and cannot believe we are nearly there. This time around we wanted to stay in 3 main areas and experience as much as we could around I Drive, Universal and Walt Disney world.​

We will be leaving on 3rd May from London Gatwick flying with virgin at 1pm (i hope)​

We hope to arrive around 7pm at out first hotel the Enclave Suites which we will be staying in for the next 8 nights, i have seen very bad reviews for this hotel but also some good ones i'm not too worried as we only wanted a cheap and cheerful one on I Drive and if the room is that horrible i will just complain and hope for a new one, i have already emailed the hotel asking for us to be put in a newly decorated room and what not, just have to hope for the best.​

When we have unpacked we are going to pop to Walmart and pick up some bits and pieces as we have a kitchen in our room.​

Here is a pic of The Enclave Suites, Lets hope it looks this good in real life

Right back to the report On the morning of 11th we will be checking out of The Enclave Suites and getting a taxi to The Hard Rock Hotel for the next 3 nights we decided to upgrade to Club Level to treat ourselves.

We bought a waterproof camcorder to have fun with whilst in the pools and rides on hols so we are looking forward to playing with it

Whilst staying at Universal we want to fit as much in as possible as we love it so much really looking forward to the use of FOTL pass

I have booked tickets to see The Blue Man Group for the 13th May

We want to try and eat in the following places..

Bubba Gumps
Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville
Mythos

Also we will be hoping that Harry Potter World will be open at some point while we are over in Orlando ideally the days we are at Universal so fingers crossed.​

Next Up Disney
