Orlando, Atlanta, Pensacola

I have been a few places since I last blogged. I haven't been able to get to a computer for the last week as I have been traveling. But I'm doing well!



Sponge Bob Square Pants, at Univeresal Studios Orlando! There were many rides at Orlando, and the park was very large. I really enjoyed the 'Rock out' ride, as you could choose a song to play as you rode. I chose 'Cant touch this'  Mc Hammer, it gave that edge to the ride! 

Harry Potter World - Butter Beer, It tasted like caramel, or butter scotch. I had a frozen version as it was so hot! at Adventure Island, Universal.
I went on the Hogwarts ride, and the line takes you through the actual school. It was pretty cool walking through the hallways with moving pictures. We passed through Dumbledore's office, the Dark Arts classroom, and chatted to the sorting hat. As I went on the ride I was so excited after all the build up!


Most of the ride was screen simulations, but after a minute of being on the ride we suddenly stopped! All the lights came on and all we could see was a gray oval in front of us.
There had been a system malfunction and we dangled there for at least half an hour. Every one that was on the ride had stopped, and we could here people shouting and calling in the distance, and a small child was crying.
After a while we were moved from that spot and moved around the ride, but with not as it should have been. We saw all the workings bare, it was very disappointing, and a spoiler!
As compensation we had a free fast pass. So I jumped in the que and went again. It was brilliant, although I kind of knew what was coming!

I waited in line for an hour to meet Winne the Pooh and Tigger! It was such a busy day at Disney World, as it was fathers day. I had fun, and I enjoyed Space Mountain the most!


The parades were great and it was very family orientated, but I found that most of it was restaurants, and shops. With a few roller coaster rides chucked in there as well. The good thing was, if you wanted to go on a ride with a massive line, you could get a fast pas ticked for an allotted time and come back to the fast lane! I did that will all of the big rides I wanted to go on. It saved me hours of standing in line!
 The sun set was beautiful at Disney, and the light parade, with the fire works were fun. 




 The vault at Coke World. I was hoping that they would tell us what the secret ingredient was, as they talked about it so much!! I finally thought I could know what made a glass of coke so good. But when they opened the secret door, it was just a massive high security safe.. What a let down. But the history of the evolving logo, popularity and commercialism was brilliant! And the best thing was we got to taste up to 60 different products owned by the company. I was on a sugar high for a few hours after that.
The family i stayed with were a normal south American family. They were very accommodating and friendly! Grace showed me around Atlanta, and the different areas. The kids were a laugh, and very talkative and great fun. I loved being in their company!
So thank you so much! Diolch o galon.


Today we went to the Naval Aviator Museum at Pensacola, it was great to see so many fighter planes and jets. I am staying with a lovely family here too, and it's nice to be some were different, not a massive busy city for a change. I am so grateful for letting me stay! Diolch.

I will try my best to keep you all posted over the next few weeks. But I wont be any were for a long period of time. Luned x
