I swore blind that I wouldn’t be going to Disney this year, after all I have a new job to search for and its a whole lot of money to find in such a short space of time; but when you step outside and realise you would be warmer if you sat in your fridge the mind does begin to wander a little.

After another trying day at work (this leaving lark is a whole lot harder than I thought it would be) I found myself; well it was me and the bloke at Bluewater talking to one of the lovely ladies from Virgin Holidays about peak season and if she thought there would be free Dining again this year.

This isn’t a make or break deal for us to book as I’m quite sure the cost of it is built into the holiday but paying for it up front allows me to make different choices about what and where I eat as it’s not influenced by cost. In the U.S. free dining is available on all levels of resort; value get quick service and I think moderates and deluxe get the normal dining plan (way too much food for me and all that time eating table service meals is time away from the fun stuff) but over here they only offer it from moderates up

Now normally the person who would suggest looking at holidays is my darling husband and I go along with it but then have to be the sensible one who says we can’t really afford that right now but it would appear my sensible self has got up and left which means we are in a whole lot of trouble

So, I am now on a desperate search for reasons why I shouldn’t book this year and to be quite honest I am failing miserably; my Twitter and Facebook feeds are full of Disney updates and my screen saver which is a picture of Cinderellas castle is calling me. I am sure a sensible solution would be to write a for and against list or think logically about how we could pay for it but yet again we come back to acting like a grown up which we have already established is something I am not

It would appear that Disney has become part of me and right now the desire to go back is stronger than it’s ever been; maybe I won’t go back this year but having a countdown to when I do might make these cold nights a little easier to deal with.

Im off to search the net for a holiday ☺️, until next week xxx
