Rome - Day One

Image
Ok, so I really didn't take any notes on this trip and since i'm writing them a week to the day that we got back i'm guessing these posts will be pretty short. But anyway, we were up around 4am to head to the airport, that all went well until we drove into Newcastle and found some major road closes! Eventually we asked a taxi driver, he said he was heading to the airport too and just to follow him, we still got there with enough time so that was ok! Check in queue was pretty short but the security line was the longest i've seen it in a long time! We got through pretty quickly and were soon off to Burger King to grab some pre-flight food before heading to WHSmith for drinks to take with us. The flight went pretty quickly, I think we'd both fallen asleep before take off to be honest! Jet2 don't let you keep electronics on for take off or landing so I couldn't take a time lapse. Still pretty bummed about it. Once we landed...

My Birthday Cake

Every year I share photographs of my birthday cake, and this year is no exception! My Mam put this together using a plain photocake from ASDA, some colour flame candles, a printed design from Bonanza and icing decorations from eBay.

Bread Point Bubble Waffle Review

Image
A few weeks ago, Bread Point in Newcastle started selling Bubble Waffles, they only sell them between 11:30-3:30 so it was pretty difficult to get my hands on one, but my fiancé had a day off work so we headed there at lunch time on May 31st. We ordered an Oreo Crunch waffle to share, it consists of oreos, dairy ice cream, Nutella, a cigar wafer and bubble waffle. They're pretty big and we shared one, I don't like oreos but the ice cream mixed with the Nutella was amazing and the bubble waffle tasted like cake. I'll definitely be picking one up whenever we're in Newcastle that early, and let's face it, we probably all left Sunnycon yesterday to go get one too. (writing this pre-con). They cost £4.95 and come in a few different flavour mixes.

It's that time of year again, but this year we've only attended on the Saturday as we have other commitments on the Sunday of the convention. Here's a video of what we saw and got up to today at St James' Park.

Disney Wish List

Image
It's time for another Disney Store (UK) Wish List post! I'm writing this pre-birthday so maybe by the time this post goes live I might actually have one or two things from this list. Scented Holiday Dale Tsum Tsum I couldn't find this one in the three Disney Stores I tried so hopefully someone will pick this up for my birthday as I included it on the lists I was asked for. I managed to get the Chip Coconut version but hes so lonely without Dale. Disney Traditions Lilo & Stitch 15th Anniversary You probably already know I collect both Stitch items and Disney Traditions so this is just an ideal piece to add to my collection. I also really want the Stitch Ugly Ducking Tradition but I don't think it was ever released in the UK so import fees are pretty high and theres always the worry of it breaking on transit. Stitch Patterned Mug I collect Stitch everything, but Stitch mugs especially. But i'm on a 'mug/cup...
