Flew MAN to MCO today with VA in PE. Great flight but it did seem to drag slightly compared to usual Watched two movies, crew great, flight was 8hrs 30mins.
The pilot warned us that the jumbo from gatwick was close behind us and to get through to immigration ASAP. Well we were pretty much first off the plane and then our trip through the airport was much like an Olympic event and had it been, I think we would have won gold!! We were second in line at the immigration hall, the officers are always so serious to begin with but then we had a bit of a giggle with him in the end! Dumped our cases for the second baggage reclaim. Cases came though in record time, straight to DE, again super quick, Chevvy Traverse, we were out of MCO in record time
Drove to villa on Formosa Gardens, we have stayed in this one twice previously so it's home from home. Weather hot and muggy! Went to Bob Evans for a quick meal! A few bits from Winn Dixie and we are now relaxing back at the villa with a beer!
It's the first time that the girls have been a real help with the unpacking they are still up, not sure how as we were up at 5am and it is now 2am UK time very busy setting up their Lego!
No plans for tomorrow, will update if we do anything of interest!
Oh one final thing, bit of celeb spotting, we sat by Robbie Fowler and his family on the flight!!!
Bye for now.
