Beaches Resorts, Just A Hop And A Jump From Disney

Now it’s not secret I have been wondering where to say to chill out for a few days after our great Disney Adventure. I have spent hours studying hotels, and some very beautiful ones too. But nothing quite gelled or inspired me to book. You see I had a vision in my head of the perfect chill out hotel for us and I hadn’t quite found it.

It’s so funny how sometimes your children can answer your questions without realising it. Joe for some reason has started listening to Bob Marley recently. He loves Three Little Birds, one night last week he was singing along to it, and it struck me.

The Iron Bridge and Tar Tunnel

Last week we got the opportunity to visit the incredible Ironbridge. Before last week I had never heard of Ironbridge, I must have been living in a bubble as not only is it such a beautiful part of the country, Ironbridge is a World Heritage Site which has a collection of 10 amazing museums. We could only fit in 4 on our trip but cant wait to go back and see the rest.

We started at the Museum of The Gorge which is a great place to start as it has a miniature model of the area and lots of information about the industrial revolution and how this impacted the area, the short film ensured everything we saw after that point make sense, especially for the boys who haven’t got the patience to stand and read all the literature in the museums.

Joe’s Holiday Survival Kit

I know we have a while to our big Orlando Adventure but I am an organised kinda gal, I love to be prepared so that I am not dashing around the week before buying last-minute bits and pieces. I literally start shopping for our next holiday as soon as a holiday is over. I love the whole holiday shopping, organising experience.

I wanted to share some of the bits I have picked up for Joe’s holiday survival kit. Now this is a huge thing in the Christie family. Yes, Jack may have grown out of it, but for Joe the holiday survival kits is still a huge part of his holiday. It so important to keep kids occupied on journeys, this is why we invented the Christie family holiday survival kit.
