Day 1
Day 2
Monday 24 July
Had a good night's sleep at the Premier Inn and were up, showered and ready to leave the hotel by 8:45. Mark was getting the train home so we walked him to the station, said our goodbyes and picked up some supplies from the local shop. Our car was just parked across the road from the hotel so we were soon on our way out of Manchester and headed to Liverpool Airport. I knew we'd be early but wanted to head off anyway in case of early morning traffic.
We were in Liverpool just after 10am and headed to the local retail park in search of an adaptor for Abbey's iphone. She'd brought the wrong earphones with her, but we had no luck in any of the shops we tried. After a stroll around we drove the short journey to the airport, parked the car and dropped off our case. Through security we were soon enjoying some breakfast.
Lewis did some shopping and bought the new Barcelona football top (he doesn't really ask for anything at Disney these days so wanted to spend his money on this instead). Abbey found the earphone adaptor in the small Sony shop in the airport, so she was happy
Soon we were boarding and took off on time at 13:10
The flight was ok, we all had headphones and were listening to music or watching stuff on our phones. There were a couple of upset kids on the flight and I felt for their parents.
Passport control was quick and our bag arrived safely too. John from Ezyshuttle was waiting for us in arrivals and were were soon on our way. John told us that there had been an accident on the motorway so we'd be going the back routes which would take about 10 minutes longer, so we reached Disney at about 16:45.
Check-in was quick and I explained we'd be adding 3 adults to the booking - no problems at all. It cost us 22.30E for the 3 nights. I was given my breakfast and dinner vouchers and was told it would cost me approx 15E to eat in the restaurant for breakfast, more for the others without the voucher but I didn't ask how much.
Our room was in Gramercy Park, 2205.
We had a tea tray this time with kettle, selection of tea/coffee/milk/sugar and paper cups - never had this before. Also a bottle of water and glasses:
The bathroom had a fancy new hairdryer, lol
Loved these 25th Anniversary coasters
We dumped our stuff and got ready for our evening in the parks. It was sunny, windy and looked like it might rain so I packed a couple of brollys, sunglasses and we all took hoodies! Be prepared!
