VIDEO – Disney’s Hollywood Studios

February 27, 2008

Steven Spielberg ought not to be afraid. With my video skills, I’m no threat to him, I know. But, here is some video we took at our favorite Disney park – previously known as MGM Studios.

February 26, 2008

This is Disney’s answer to the traditional zoo. A day at Animal Kingdom which combines roller coasters with seeing animals in a safari-like condition

VIDEO – Disney’s Epcot

February 25, 2008

I’m still struggling with the transition to real life and the UK time zone. Two-week holidays seem to disorientate me a bit, but I’m certainly not expecting any sympathy, nor do I deserve any! I will stop annoying you with details of our amazing time soon. But at least as I share this video, you [...]

Home Again!

February 19, 2008

We’re home again! The reunion was sweet, although the three of us are rather tired. I worked today, while both Henry and Tamasin spent some time sleeping. Unfortunately, none of us slept a wink on the plane! This was the longest I’ve been away from my dear wife, and the longest I have been in [...]

Magic Kingdom, Typhoon Lagoon, and Downtown Disney

February 18, 2008

On Thursday of last week we went to Magic Kingdom and then to Downtown Disney. Magic Kingdom was the first theme park. It’s amazing in its architecture and totally unique. But to be honest, we felt it was showing its age a little. It IS a magical world. It IS an amazing sight. But on [...]

Visiting Metro Life Church of Orlando

February 17, 2008

Today I visited Metro Life Church in Orlando, which is part of Sovereign Grace Ministries. This is the home church of blogger, Jesse Phillips, and is led by Danny Jones, Senior Pastor, who is a part of SGM’s apostolic team. The venue was very nice, and as the worship began I felt very comfortable, having [...]

Disney’s Animal Kingdom

February 16, 2008

Yes, it really is true that we managed to take all the above photos during a single day at the Animal Kingdom this week. Back on Wednesday, which seems an age away now, we spent a fantastic day on the wilder side of Disney. Actually, we got there closer to lunch time than opening time. [...]

Disney’s Hollywood Studios (Previously MGM)

February 14, 2008

On Tuesday we visited Disney’s answer to Universal Studios. It’s not as big as its rival, but has lots of rides and shows. Fantasmia lived up to its reputation at the end of the day. The Tower of Terror set a mildly horror-based scene which was an irritating distraction to the real basis of the [...]

Disney’s EPCOT

February 12, 2008

After a quieter day when we went back to Islands of Adventure to revisit some rides we especially liked, we moved to the Pop Century Hotel at Disney. One major advantage of being here at this time of year is that we were able to do almost everything we wanted to do at EPCOT despite [...]

I’m slipping a bit behind with my update posts . . . too busy enjoying ourselves! Here is some video we took at Sea World, however.

Sea World and Mardi Gras

February 10, 2008

Saturday was Sea World day and the Mardi Gras. Tamasin described it as follows in her diary: Today we went to Sea World. Sea World is joined up with Discovery Cove (the place with the dolphins). Sea World was really cool. They had a roller coaster (it was easy but fun) and a water ride. [...]

Swimming with Dolphins at Discovery Cove

February 9, 2008

There is even less that I can say about today than yesterday. I’m almost speechless, which is a rare thing for me! Discovery Cove was not cheap. But I’m glad I spent the money. The photos above tell our story, but don’t show the amazing snorkeling pool full of wonderful fish you can see up [...]

Shuttle Launch at Kennedy Space Center

February 8, 2008

What can I say about a day that truly was unique? Experiencing the simulator version of a shuttle launch in the Shuttle Experience, then climbing inside one, then learning about the International Space Station in a 3D IMAX movie—all before seeing a real launch live . . . not many people get to do that!

Universal’s Islands of Adventure, Orlando

February 7, 2008

We are back in our hotel room after a long day in the second of Universal’s parks. This was an amazing day and we enjoyed it immensely, as you can probably tell from our photographs. The Hulk roller coaster towered terrifyingly above us as we entered the park. The noise was rather imposing also. I [...]

Wet n’ Wild in Orlando, Florida

February 6, 2008

We learned an invaluable lesson today about vacations in Florida. You really can’t do it all, and you actually don’t want to. Having spent a stimulating and enjoyable day at Universal Studios yesterday, we took someone’s advice and decided to have a day at a waterpark before hitting Islands of Adventure tomorrow. The idea of [...]
