Today was our tour to Kennedy Space Centre (Cape Canaveral). We had to catch a bus to another Disney park and then a boat to another resort just to make the tour bus, we made it by a few minutes, man I was stressing and Andrew was stressing because I was, it was crazy but we made it and it was all good. We had the best tour bus driver so far. He was a self confessed space freak and gave everyone the best tips on where to sit in the imax theatre and all the info o...

Today we left Miami and travelled to Orlando, it took longer to check in and get through security than the actual time on the flight (I wasn't in the air long enough to even watch a full episode of the Simpsons). So at the Orlando airport we caught the Disney Magical Express bus and yes it is as over the top as it sounds but it is cute, all part of the Disney experience I guess. Well check in was easy and the room is great although there is no fridge (you have to...

Had my venti cappuccino from Starbucks, it was so nice, I miss Starbucks back at home. Nearly everywhere you go there is a Starbucks or two, at this one terminal there was 2 Starbucks. So on to the plane f...

Our connecting flight from Auckland to LA was held for the arrival of our plane which was 1 hour late leaving Adelaide. The flight from Auckland to LA was 45 minutes late in leaving but it made up time and actually arrived in LA before the normal expected arrival time. Not a bad flight, I felt a bit ill during the flight but all better now. The airport police were everywhere at LAX. As soon as we walked out the doors (after having my first Starbucks in months J)...
