<div>
We went on the inaugural <a href="https://www.aerlingus.com/html/home.html">Aer Lingus</a> flight from Cork to Lisbon. The flight left on a Friday evening and returned late on Monday so it was perfect for the bank holiday weekend and we didn't need to take any time off work for it. </div>

<i><span style="font-size: large;">Where to Stay?</span></i></div>
<div>
Lisbon had a few surrounding towns/suburbs that are accessible by tram. We tried to stay as close to the Avenida da Liberdade as possible as everything seemed to be in walking distance from there. We stayed in an Air BnB called the <a href="https://www.airbnb.ie/rooms/906831?guests=1&adults=1">Lisbon Gloria Apartment</a> and it was perfect. It was in an ideal location, lovely inside, reasonably priced and the hosts were great with information on Lisbon.</div>

Visiting this bridge is a must!!!! It's similar to the Golden Gate bridge and it's incredible to see. The views are fab and we really enjoyed sitting down next to the water looking at it.</div>

The Monument to the Discoveries is a fab sculpture that is definitely worth seeing if you're visiting the Belem Tower as they're very near each other. We also viewed it from the top of the museum across the road which was definitely worth it - there was literally no one else there so we had all the view to ourselves!</div>

Lisbon is famous for it's little trams (especially Tram 28 which still runs). There's loads around the area as Lisbon is very hilly so it's a great way to get around though they are incredibly crowded as they're so small!</div>

<i><span style="font-size: large;">How to Get There?</span></i><br />
We flew direct from Cork to Malaga with <a href="http://www.aerlingus.com/">Aer Lingus</a>. <a href="https://www.ryanair.com/ie/en/">Ryanair</a> also fly there on a different schedule so it's worth looking at both. They can be expensive flights so if you're flexible, I'd definitely play around with dates.<br />

We stayed in the <a href="https://www.melia.com/en/hotels/spain/torremolinos/sol-principe/index.html?esl-k=sem-google%7Cng%7Cc153939424211%7Cme%7Cksol%20principe%7Cp%7Ct%7Cdc%7Ca42317047344%7Cg688185280&&gclid=Cj0KCQjwguDeBRDCARIsAGxuU8bR1941ft7o5LKR6pjOb4KyiqBwR8k0qU-bIH7aA8xF2-ijGHshsiYaAmmAEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds">Sol Principe</a> which was gorgeous. We went full board so had breakfast, lunch and dinner included. They also do all inclusive for longer stays which we definitely would have done if we were there longer. The hotel was fab; perfect for both families and couples. The food was a buffet style which changed each day and had lots of variety.<br />

The pool was large and there were lots of sunbeds. Get there early though as they get snapped up very quickly!<br />

We also had a gorgeous view of the sea from our balcony.<br />

The location wasn't the best if you wanted to spend most of your time in Torremolinos centre. The hotel is at the opposite end to the centre so it was about half an hour's walk. We didn't mind this as it was a short trip and the walk along the beach was gorgeous but it's something to consider if you're staying for longer and wanted to spend most of your evenings in the centre.<br />

We loved Torremolinos centre. It had lots of narrow, winding streets and lots of shops with local crafts and gifts. There were also a variety of high street shops which I wasn't expecting! The area itself had a gorgeous Spanish vibe to it and I'd definitely spend more time there if we go back.<br />

It was a short trip but a relaxing one! We wanted a bit of sun before our summer holidays so it was the perfect weekend. I'll definitely be looking into it again for this year!<br />

It was our first time visiting Scotland and Edinburgh has always been on our travel bucket list.<br />
<br />
<h2>
How to Get There</h2>
<div>
We flew with Aer Lingus Regional (yes the propeller fellas!) from Cork to Edinburgh. I was a little anxious when we first sat in the plane as it's tiny but once we were settled I was fine so don't let that put you off! The flight left at about 7pm on Friday and took about an hour and a half. We got a late flight home on Sunday at around 9.30pm.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When we arrived in the airport we got the <a href="https://www.getyourguide.com/edinburgh-l44/airport-transfer-airlink-t37533/?partner_id=UHFMQAD&cmp=airlink-edinburgh">Airlink Bus</a> to Princes St which was really cheap.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h2>
Where to Stay</h2>
<div>
After staying in an apartment in <a href="http://rebecca-casey.blogspot.com/2018/06/new-york-state-of-mind.html">New York</a> we decided to do the same in Edinburgh. We stayed in <a href="https://www.fountaincourtapartments.com/apartments/braid/">Fountain Court Braid</a> on Thistle St which was a great location. It worked out around the same price as hotels for the 2 nights and it was lovely.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h2>
What to Do</h2>
<div>
We decided to do the Hop on Hop off Bus Tour to see most of the city which you can prebook online <a href="https://city-sightseeing.com/en/91/edinburgh/129/hop-on-hop-off-edinburgh?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&gclid=Cj0KCQjwxtPYBRD6ARIsAKs1XJ7khpW8xORD925xlCqMWO1s8RNjxm-QAT-uO0wE--oxJbQsZSddLmQaAi9_EALw_wcB">here</a>. This was great as Edinburgh is a small enough city so we were able to see lots of sights and get off wherever we wanted.</div>

<div>
We visited <a href="https://www.edinburghzoo.org.uk/">Edinburgh Zoo</a> and loved it! Although I have to say I've never seen so many hills in my life!!!! But the views are worth it once you reach the top. The highlight for us was seeing the Pandas. They were the CUTEST! Apparently they sleep most of the day so we were SO lucky to see them playing outside and eating their bamboo. The zoo also had Koalas which were adorable and the usual animals like tigers, zebras and monkeys. It's definitely worth a trip if you're in Edinburgh.</div>

We visited Edinburgh Castle although we didn't go into it. We climbed up the hill to it and the views are fab. I have to say though we were a little underwhelmed when we reached the top but I think that's because we had seen the views gradually as we walked up. </div>

We also visited <a href="http://www.elephanthouse.biz/">The Elephant House</a> cafe where JK Rowling wrote Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone. We also went to Tom Riddle's grave in Greyfriars Kirkyard which is where JK Rowling got the inspiration for Voldemort's character.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We did a bit of shopping on Princes St but to be honest they had most of the same shops that we had here. I did go to Superdrug and got some make up and got a few bits in Primark.</div>

<div>
Since the weather was gorgeous while we were there, we went and got ice creams and sat in Princes St Gardens which was lovely to just chill out in whilst still being really close to the city centre.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We visited the Old Town of Edinburgh which was gorgeous. Lots of people playing the bagpipes and there was a great atmosphere around the place. We also popped into St Giles' Cathedral which was gorgeous inside.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We found the 2 days plenty in Edinburgh. We saw loads but weren't ran off our feet either. Hope you enjoyed reading this! Now it's time to start planning our next trip!</div>

<br />
It has been FOREVER since I last posted a blog post on here! I've been so busy lately and kinda lost my blogging mojo so hoping to get back into posting more regularly over the summer.<br />
<br />
As some of you may know if you've been following my social media, myself and Kevin headed to New York back in March to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. It was our first time there and we absolutely LOVED it! I would absolutely 100% recommend it to anyone and we will most definitely go back there again. I decided to write a blog post giving you all the info on our trip - who we flew with, where we stayed, what we did etc.<br />
<br />
<h2>
How to Get There</h2>
<div>
We've been to America the past 5 years and have always flown from Dublin to clear immigration before arriving in the U.S. For this trip, we decided to fly from Cork via London Heathrow which meant we wouldn't clear immigration until we landed in JFK. Honestly, it was so much easier than travelling to Dublin. Last year in Dublin we spent almost 3 hours queueing in immigration and it was so bad that security were calling people for certain flights to skip the queue as their flight was about to leave. Doing immigration in New York was a breeeeeze! I expected long delays but we were through it and had our bags collected within half an hour. We flew with Aer Lingus to LHR and Virgin to JFK. This was our first time flying with Virgin and so far they're the best airline we've flown with - comfortable seats, friendly staff and really good food.</div>

<br /></div>
<h2>
Where to Stay</h2>
<div>
We decided to get an apartment since we were going for a week. I wanted a serviced apartment to play it safe. These are basically apartments but with the same facilities as hotels e.g. housekeeping, reception etc. We stayed in <a href="https://www.stayaka.com/">Stay AKA Times Square</a> and loved it. It was more expensive that other hotels but we wanted the extra space to chill out in the evenings and also since it was a special occasion we didn't mind spending a bit more. If we were to go back to New York, I would absolutely stay here again. The apartments were SO nice and just around the corner from Times Square. You can see our apartment tour vlog <a href="https://youtu.be/cCrqVVVlugA">here</a>. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h2>
What to Do</h2>
<div>
We did the obvious tourist things to do while we were here since it was our first trip. We did the 9/11 and Ground Zero Tour which you can book <a href="https://911groundzero.com/">here</a>. We really enjoyed this tour and I'd definitely recommend taking a trip here - it's so surreal. </div>

We decided in advance not to do Ellis Island but we did take the Staten Island ferry which is free and passes the Statue of Liberty. It takes about 25 minutes each way but is a nice way to see the Statue of Liberty without having to go to Ellis Island.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We also walked along Brooklyn Bridge which I highly recommend doing. We got the subway from Manhattan to Brooklyn and then walked along the Brooklyn Bridge back towards Manhattan. The views of the skyscrapers are unreal and the bridge itself is gorgeous. </div>

We did lots of shopping which we hadn't exactly planned on doing! We went to <a href="http://www.simon.com/mall/the-mills-at-jersey-gardens">Jersey Gardens</a> shopping mall which was about half an hour on the bus from Manhattan. The mall itself was only ok but I did get a great deal on bags in Michael Kors so it was worth it for that! We went to Macys on 34th St (where Miracle on 34th St was filmed), Century 21 (similar to TK Maxx), Apple (surprise surprise) and then the usual shops we have here like Zara and H&M. </div>

Hey everyone! Following on from my previous Orlando posts, I'd thought I'd share a few restaurant ideas for when you're in Orlando.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.universalorlando.com/web/en/us/things-to-do/dining/antojitos-authentic-mexican-food/index.html">Antojitos - Citywalk</a><br />
Of course this is going to be my number one recommendation! If you've been following us on social media you'll know that we LOVED this place and we ate there so often that the staff began to recognise us (oops!). It's a Mexican restaurant in Universal's Citywalk that does the most DELICIOUS food ever! If you're into Mexican food, this place is a must! The fajitas are my fav and Kevin also loves the burritos. The salsa there is literally LIFE (I've contemplated just asking for tortilla crisps and dozens of bowls of salsa it's that good!!!).<br />

<a href="https://www.universalorlando.com/web/en/us/things-to-do/dining/red-oven-pizza-bakery/all-day-menu.html">Red Oven - Citywalk</a><br />
Red Oven is a gorgeous pizza restaurant also in Citywalk. They have gorgeous pizzas and I'd highly recommend it. The Big Eye Pepperoni pizza is DELISH!<br />

<a href="http://www.aashirwadrestaurant.com/">Aashirwad - International Drive</a><br />
We found this Indian restaurant on our most recent trip to Orlando and LOVED it. It was the most delicious Indian food ever and the staff are lovely. The restaurant was recently renovated so it's very modern inside.<br />

<a href="https://www.shakeshack.com/">Shake Shack - Florida Mall / Eye of Orlando</a><br />
We ate here for lunch when we were at the Florida Mall and it was actually lovely. The restaurants are really nice inside but the food is definitely more of a lunch option than a dinner option. It's not the nicest food ever but it wasn't terrible either! We both had burgers and chips and really liked them. The one at Eye of Orlando looks gorgeous inside so I'd definitely recommend that one.<br />

We ate here once and I'll admit we had very high expectations that it didn't quite live up to. It's another Mexican restaurant but we personally preferred Antojitos. It's a gorgeous restaurant inside and the food wasn't bad but we just preferred Antojitos.</div>

These are just a few restaurant recommendations in Orlando. There's obviously lots of fast food restaurants and hot dog / burger places too so I tried to give a few other places that might be nice to try out.</div>

<br />
Today's post in the Travelling to Orlando series is all about the theme parks - can you even go to Florida and not do the theme parks?!<br />
<br />
I'm going to focus on tips and tricks on the following parks:<br />
<ul>
<li>Universal Studios & Islands of Adventure</li>
<li>Volcano Bay</li>
<li>Magic Kingdom</li>
<li>Busch Gardens</li>
</ul>
<div>
<i><a href="https://www.universalorlando.com/web/en/us/index.html">Universal Studios & Islands of Adventure</a></i></div>
<div>
These two parks are probably our favourite parks; mainly because I actually do most of the rides there :P As we stay in one of Universal's on-site hotels we get early park access before it opens to the public so this is a good chance to do any of the busy rides (not all are open). Staying in the on-site hotels also means there's free transport to the parks making your journey time very short.<br />
<br />

<br />
Universal Studios is mainly made up of 4D ride simulators whereas Islands of Adventure has more thrill rides. In Universal Studios my favourite rides would be the Escape from Gringotts, The Revenge of the Mummy, Race Through New York with Jimmy Fallon and Despicable Me Minion Mayhem. I only really like Spiderman and King Kong Reign of Skull Island in Islands of Adventure as they're about the only two I do :P<br />

<div>
When going to the parks we always download the Universal app to keep an eye on wait times (there's free wifi throughout the parks).<br />
<br />

<br /></div>
<div>
If you're planning on doing a long day there, I'd recommend getting the refillable drinks cup. For an initial $15 you can refill your cup for free for the rest of the day. If you're returning to the park another day, you can bring the same cup with you and reactivate your free refills for only $8. You can also refill for free between these two parks and Volcano Bay.<br />

We get a 14 day, 3 park ticket while we're here as it's the best value for us. It's one ticket that gets you entry to Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure and Volcano Bay. We used always get our tickets from <a href="https://www.attractionticketsdirect.ie/">Attraction Tickets Direct</a> (they post out your tickets to you) but the last two times we've gone we've actually used <a href="https://www.travelrepublic.ie/attractions">Travel Republic</a> as they've been cheaper (they email you your tickets which you need to print out). I think this year they worked out at about <span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">€184 each. I think if you go to just one park for more than 2 days you get your value so it's definitely worth looking into if you're planning on doing the 3 parks or visiting them on multiple days. The multi-day tickets at the parks can be quite expensive so compare their online prices to the 2 week passes to see what's cheaper.</span></span><br />

Volcano Bay is a water park that just opened earlier this year. We really enjoyed it when we were here however I didn't do a single slide while I was there :P a lot of the slides are tube type ones and I get really claustrophobic so opted out of those :P I did go on the lazy river (how thrilling!) and the Fearless River which Kevin had initially told me was the lazy river and I absolutely nearly died on it (as well as losing my Tapu Tapu and almost half my bikini!). After I got over the initial shock of my near death experience (yes I am 100% exaggerating), I did manage to go on it a few more times and actually enjoyed it :P<br />

Volcano Bay also has a gorgeous wave pool with the volcano as it's backdrop which looks amazing (serious instagram ops!). There's lots of sunbeds too which is nice but we always tried to get one right at the front to avoid the sand :P<br />
<br />
The water park has introduced a virtual queue to minimise the time standing in line waiting for rides. You're given a Tapu Tapu which looks just like a watch. You tap your Tapu Tapu on a station outside the attraction and it tells you how long you have to wait to ride. It'll vibrate when it's time for you to go to that attraction which saves you waiting in line. Kevin used it a few times but still ended up queuing for about 20/30 mins which is annoying. The Tapu Tapu also only allows you to be in one virtual queue so if it's a busy day you may not get the chance to do many of the attractions. Some of them have a rid enow option which is usually when it's quiet. This means you don't need to get in the virtual line and you can just go straight into a normal queue for the ride.<br />

The food options for us weren't great as most of the food contained egg which Kevin is allergic to. We stayed in Cabana Bay which had it's own private entrance to Volcano Bay so it was only a 2/3 minute walk to grab some lunch there and head back to the park again afterwards (not ideal if we weren't staying in Cabana Bay!). Again we got a refillable cup here for $15. We didn't know at the time that we could have used our Universal one and re-activate it for only $8 but we figured that out soon after! Again, like Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure, you can use this cup in all 3 parks on the same day for free.<br />

<i><a href="https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/en_GB/destinations/magic-kingdom/">Magic Kingdom</a></i><br />
We've only been to Magic Kingdom out of all the Disney parks. We've been twice and have loved it both times. As it's a bit further out from the International Drive area, we usually do a full day trip here (which can be really long!). Both times we went we used <a href="http://www.mearstransportation.com/">Mears</a> transfers which we booked through the hotel. We bought our tickets in the park (roughly about $100 each) as we were only going for one day. If you're looking for multiple days, try the above websites where we got our Universal tickets from as it'd work out cheaper.<br />

Magic Kingdom is great for all ages. It has rides to suit everyone and the park itself is just gorgeous. The castle is amazing and it's definitely worth staying for the night show at park closing. The fireworks display is brilliant.<br />
<br />
Both times we visited Magic Kingdom, the weather was the hottest it had been throughout our holidays! The queues for most of the rides are outdoors with no shelters or air conditioning so it does get really hot so make sure to bring lots of water and pocket fans (trust me these will be your life saver!). If you're staying for the full day bring lots of drinks and snacks (Mears collected us at about 7am and we didn't leave until after the show which was after midnight) as it's a pretty long day. We also went to <a href="https://www.disneysprings.com/?CMP=KNC-FY18_WDPR_WDW_ACT_FLR_SPRINGS_Evergreen%7C-%7C%7CBR%7CG%7C4181040.DD.AM.01.02&keyword_id=kwd-719770443%7Cdc%7Cdisney%20springs%7C230158164421%7Ce%7C5064%3A3%7C&gclid=CjwKCAiAqvXTBRBuEiwAE54dcKkGJcd-lbQ3VCIujotJEAvNz6bAw2M2-1Pmizt9q6Ohgk2g90PI2RoC72wQAvD_BwE&s_kwcid=AL%215064%213%21230158164421%21e%21%21g%21%21disney%20springs&ef_id=Wn3sIQAABHnErNEh%3A20180209184449%3As">Disney Springs</a> for lunch which is nearby for a break! There's a few shops, pubs and restaurants there so it was nice to just take a break from the park for an hour or two.<br />
<br />
<i><a href="https://buschgardens.com/">Busch Gardens</a></i><br />
This theme park / zoo is located in Tampa which is about an hour's drive from Orlando. It has mainly thrill rides so it's not the best theme park to go to if you don't really like rollercoasters! It also has a zoo so there's lots of cool animals to see too! Kevin loves this park so it's definitely worth a visit if you like rollercoasters.<br />

Busch Gardens does free shuttle buses to Busch Gardens. They collect you from various points in Orlando depending on where you're staying. We got picked up and dropped off at Universal which was handy. We booked it through our hotel's concierge / park ticket desk.<br />
<br />
They also have a refillable cup that can be used on the day of purchase in Busch Gardens, Aquatica, Adventure Island and Sea World, similar to Universal.<br />
<br />
Right that's enough about theme parks! Hope this will be useful if you're contemplating going to Orlando or if you're trying to decide what park is best for you. If there's any more info you need email me or contact me on my social media.<br />

<br />
Hey guys! Today's post is all about hotel recommendations for Orlando. I'll talk about the different hotels we've stayed in and what areas are best to stay in.<br />
<br />
<i>Areas to Stay in?</i><br />
This will definitely depend on where you plan on basing your trip around. If you're mainly focusing on Disney then Lake Buena Vista or Celebration are probably the areas to look for a place to stay in. If you're looking to stay close to the Universal parks or SeaWorld then I'd recommend International Drive (it's big so where to specifically stay will depend on where suits you best).<br />
<br />
<i>Who to Book With?</i><br />
I always start by searching on <a href="https://www.trivago.ie/">Trivago</a> which is a price comparison website for hotels. It basically gives me the cheapest site to book from and I'll go with the sites that I've used before. Simple!<br />
<br />
<i><a href="http://www.enclavesuites.com/">Enclave Suites - International Drive</a></i><br />
This is a pretty basic hotel on International Drive. We stayed here the very first year we went as it was cheap and in a good location. It is in the middle of International Drive and about a 25 min walk to the Universal parks. The pool is really small and we never used it - we used the water park as our pool and base for during the day. The rooms are pretty basic but they did have a kitchenette and a fridge so we had the option of cooking if we wanted to which was handy. There are plenty of similar hotels on I-Drive that are really affordable and are great if you basically only want a place to sleep.<br />
<br />
<i><a href="https://www.rosenshinglecreek.com/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIuOqnpsSd1wIVbL7tCh2U3Q9kEAAYASAAEgJUsPD_BwE">Rosen Shingle Creek - Universal Boulevard</a></i><br />
This is a huge step up from the Enclave! We stayed here the second year we went to Orlando and it is so fab! It has it's own golf course, spa, outdoor hot tub and four pools (one is adults only). It has fifteen dining/lounging options so plenty of choice. It also has two tennis courts, a basketball court, a volleyball court and a nature/forest trail. It was so luxurious and we loved it. The only negative we had was the location wasn't great. It's fine if you're renting a car but if you're relying on public transport there's a bus that comes only during restricted hours and literally goes the opposite direction to Universal so the trip takes about an hour as opposed to about 15 minutes if you were to drive. We'd definitely go back here for a spa/chill out weekend or if we were able to drive!<br />
<br />

<br />
<a href="https://www.loewshotels.com/cabana-bay-hotel"><i>Universal's Cabana Bay Beach Resort</i></a><br />
We've stayed here the last three years and love it. It's one of the Universal on-site hotels. Each standard room has two queen sized beds, wardrobe, safe, bathroom with bath and a separate sink area which is handy to get ready at when someone else is in the shower! One thing you should definitely buy if you stay here is the refillable cup. I think it was about $21 each for a cup that you can refill for free for the length of your holiday so it's such good value and there's so many drink options.<br />
<br />

<br />
It's not the fanciest hotel but we really enjoy it. It has two pools and one has an accompanying lazy river (bring tubes / rings etc. with you as you can use your own; they sell them there too but not sure of prices). They also supply towels to use by the pool so you don't need to bring loads or worry about them being dry for the following day.<br />

Staying in any of the on-site hotels gives you Early Park Admission (EPA) meaning you can get entry to the parks (selected rides in there) one hour before it opens to the public so this is great to avail of so you can do the rides that have really long queues or make your way to them if they're not operating during EPA. There's also a free shuttle that brings you to the parks that runs about every 10/15 minutes.<br />

<br />
Staying specifically in Cabana Bay means there is a separate walking entrance to Volcano Bay water park (room key required) and it's literally like 2 minutes from the hotel which is fab.<br />
This hotel is roughly about $100 a night so it's not the cheapest or most expensive hotel. They have a Bayliner Diner which has a variety of food options e.g. burgers, pizza, salads, flatbread etc. and a huge seating area for you to enjoy your food in. They also have microwaves which is handy if you choose to bring your own food (there's a Walgreens shop about a 15 minute walk away).<br />
<br />
That's a general guide on the hotels we've stayed in. If you have any questions that I didn't answer here then let me know :)<br />

<br />
Hey guys! The first post in my Travelling to Orlando series is all about flights and transfers.<br />
<br />
<i>Do your Research:</i><br />
When it comes to booking our flights, the first place I start is <a href="https://www.skyscanner.ie/">Skyscanner</a>. This is a price comparison website that basically gives you a variety of flight options to choose from. You can filter by airline company, price, flight times, layover length etc. Obviously price is a big factor but I always take into consideration layovers and how long they'll be and justify the price against the waiting times then. I also make sure to Google the type of aircraft to see if they have individual entertainment screens. We assumed all long haul flights did until one year we got caught and had no entertainment for 9 hours!<br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Direct or Indirect?</i><br />
We've done both! <a href="https://www.aerlingus.com/html/en-US/home.html">Aerlingus</a> go direct and I have to say it is definitely nice to just know the next time you're getting off is at your destination and not have to wait around in another airport for a few hours. That being said, Aer Lingus can often be way more expensive and so going indirect may be the better option. I always keep an eye on their sales! They also had really great flight times - departing Dublin at about 2pm and departing Orlando at about 8pm returning meaning you have a full day on your last day.<br />
<br />
We've gone indirect 3 times with United, U.S. Airways and Air Canada Rouge. I'd recommend United and U.S. Airways no problem but we had a really bad experience with Air Canada Rouge and I personally wouldn't fly with them again because of that.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNvWPn6jMYG1I6oJgwwyItIDmI9PS9zu9g3AfYxH4HJpWnZ3jl3yos9l37QrxxN82Qh-CGbXn8_RFuz1S_DgOr3B2WF5pPAlZ190OWWjFX48IIl5t4o3R0MxBvz7NRlEIDKkSz1HoJUXXx/s1600/21042059_202219756982227_291483483165949952_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNvWPn6jMYG1I6oJgwwyItIDmI9PS9zu9g3AfYxH4HJpWnZ3jl3yos9l37QrxxN82Qh-CGbXn8_RFuz1S_DgOr3B2WF5pPAlZ190OWWjFX48IIl5t4o3R0MxBvz7NRlEIDKkSz1HoJUXXx/s640/21042059_202219756982227_291483483165949952_n.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
When we go indirect, we always make sure the stopover is somewhere in America so you can clear customs in Dublin (much quicker than in the U.S.). I also always look at the layover time - we've never had a layover of more than 3 hours; something to keep in mind as some can be 7 or 8 hours (sometimes overnight). Also be careful as some layovers make you change airport in the state you're flying into so that's worth checking too as you may not have time to collect your bags, make your way to the other airport and re-check in.<br />
<br />
<i>How Much?</i><br />
Well obviously that depends on the time of year you fly and who you book with. We've always gone in August / September as the parks are much quieter. We paid roughly about <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">€</span>1300 for the return flights for the two of us with Aer Lingus. When we've travelled indirect, we've paid as little as <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">€</span>950.<br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Transfers?</i><br />
We travel to Dublin airport from Cork using the Aircoach. For transfers from Orlando airport we use <a href="http://www.mearstransportation.com/">Mears Transportation</a>. We pre-book this online for about $60 return. It's a shared shuttle service but they organise everyone who are staying in hotels near each other so it never takes too long.<br />
<br />
That's pretty much all for flights and transfers; if I've forgot anything then please let me know! My next post in this series will be all about accommodation in Orlando.<br />

<br />
Hey everyone! As most of you probably already know, myself and Kevin went on yet another trip to Orlando last September! This was our 5th year going and we probably had the best time there this time! We went for 24 days which meant we had the busyness of the theme parks while also being able to spend a lot more time relaxing which was lovely.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We get so many messages and emails from people looking for info on Orlando; whether it's what to do there or how to go about even booking it. Because of this, I've decided to write a few detailed blog posts on all you need to know about Orlando. I'm going to categorise the blog posts so there will be a few of them but seeing as there's so much detail to go into, I figured this was the best way to go about it!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here's a list of blog posts that I'll be covering on Orlando:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><i><a href="https://rebecca-casey.blogspot.ie/2018/02/travelling-to-orlando-flights-transfers.html">Flights & Transfers</a></i> - Who we've flown with, how we booked our flights and what transfers we use.</li>
<li><i><a href="https://rebecca-casey.blogspot.ie/2018/02/travelling-to-orlando-accommodation.html">Accommodation</a></i> - Where we've stayed, pros and cons of each hotel and how we booked our hotel.</li>
<li><i><a href="http://rebecca-casey.blogspot.ie/2018/02/travelling-to-orlando-theme-parks.html">Theme Parks</a></i> - Obviously this is a pretty big topic so I'm mainly going to focus on Busch Gardens, Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, Volcano Bay and Magic Kingdom as these are the ones we've visited. I'll mention where we bought our tickets, transfers to the parks and tips and tricks we've learned.</li>
<li><i><a href="http://rebecca-casey.blogspot.ie/2018/02/travelling-to-orlando-restaurants.html">Restaurants</a></i> - Recommendations on restaurants we've eaten in.</li>
<li><i>Non Theme Park Activities</i> - Things to do when you want a break or change from the parks.</li>
<li><i>Shopping </i>- You can't go to Orlando and not shop!!!! I'll focus on Premium Outlets, Florida Mall and Mall at Millenia.</li>
<li><i>Miscellaneous</i> - Any other info that hasn't been covered already (lots of tips and tricks!)</li>
</ul>

I know this sounds really detailed (and it probably is!) but I think it'll be worth it to pinpoint people to! Hopefully these will cover everything but if there's anything that's not covered or if you want to ask any qs then feel free to message me on any of my social media accounts!<br />

Happy New Year (she says almost 3 weeks into January!).<br />
<br />
As some of you may know if you've been following my social media accounts, myself and Kevin headed off to Disneyland Paris for New Year's Eve and I thought I'd do a post all about it. We actually went in 2016 too but 2017 was a separately ticketed event and SO much better.<br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>How to Get There?</i></span><br />
We flew from Cork to Charles de Gaulle with <a href="https://www.aerlingus.com/html/en-IE/home.html">Aer Lingus</a>. We only decided in October that we were going to go so the flights weren't exactly the cheapest coming in at about <span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">€500 for the two of us. Not bad but we probably could have gotten it a little bit cheaper if we booked earlier. </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">We used the <a href="https://magicalshuttle.co.uk/">Magical Shuttle</a> transfer service from the airport to the hotel which we booked from the <a href="http://www.disneylandparis.ie/">Disneyland Paris</a> website (this was an add on for </span></span><span style="background-color: white;">€92 for return for both of us).</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>

<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-size: large;"><i>Where to Stay?</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">This year we stayed in <a href="http://www.disneylandparis.ie/hotels/disneys-sequoia-lodge/">Disney's Sequoia Lodge</a> which was gorgeous! It's themed around an American forest / woodland with Bambi featuring in the hotel room decor. The hotel itself has a wooden look about it and is only across the lake (about a 5 min walk) from Disney Village so I'd definitely recommend walking to the parks instead of waiting for the shuttle bus which comes every 10/15 mins. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">Last year we stayed in <a href="http://www.disneylandparis.ie/hotels/disneys-hotel-cheyenne/">The Cheyenne</a> which is Toy Story themed. It's a basic hotel but we stayed in one of the newly renovated rooms and it was lovely. Again you have the shuttle bus here but as far as I know there's no specific walking route. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-size: large;"><i>Where to Book?</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">This year we booked the hotel and park tickets directly on the <a href="http://www.disneylandparis.ie/">Disneyland Paris</a> website. We found this to be way cheaper than doing it ourselves (which I wouldn't recommend for this trip as you'll almost never get it cheaper) or by going through a travel agent. At </span><span style="background-color: white;">€1400 for 3 nights / 4 days, it wasn't exactly cheap but you have to take into account the time of year it is. </span><span style="background-color: white;">We also got free half board by staying in The Sequoia Lodge. We've previously booked the trip with <a href="https://www.abbeytravel.ie/">Abbey Travel</a> which seemed to be the cheapest travel agent.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">Because we were going for New Year's Eve, we had to buy separate tickets which were about <span id="goog_2018862617"></span></span><span style="background-color: white;">€30 each and this gave you access to the park from 5pm (you can use your normal park ticket before this) with a New Year's Eve Party wristband. I highly recommend booking this as soon as you can as it was a sold out event. There wasn't anything different about this compared to a normal park day except for some of the rides and restaurants staying open much later and of course the New Year's Eve fireworks display which was absolutely amazing. We booked this as an add on directly on the <a href="http://www.disneylandparis.ie/">Disneyland Paris</a> website. </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-size: large;"><i>Tips & Tricks</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">If you stay on-site in a Disney hotel, you can avail of Magic Hours for free which lets you enter the park 1-2 hours before it opens to the public.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">You can get a free fastpass at most ride entrances so go to these early for the busy rides as they can sell out. It'll give you a time slot to come back and you can queue in a separate (and much quicker) queue. You can only have one fastpass at a time but it tells you on your fastpass ticket what time you can get another one at.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">The food (in our opinions!) is terrible in the resort. We had free half board which gave us dinner or lunch in buffet restaurants, hotels and some restaurants in the parks. We found that the buffet in The Sequoia Lodge was the nicest (American themed) with a variety of foods such as chicken nuggets, fish, chips, lasagne, curry and pasta. There's also a McDonald's in Disney Village which we would have been lost without! On New Year's Eve we got fajitas in Fuente Del Oro near Thunder Mountain in the park and it was lovely too.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">Download the Disneyland Paris app so you can keep an eye on ride times.</span><br />

As the 2017BestNine hashtag seems to be doing the rounds on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/rainbowsandfairydustblog/">instagram</a> today, I thought I'd share mine on here too. I love looking back on my top 9 liked posts on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/rainbowsandfairydustblog/">instagram</a> as it's always really interesting to see what type of posts my followers like. Most of mine were actually fairly recent posts which was interesting. I've been trying to focus more on my <a href="https://www.instagram.com/rainbowsandfairydustblog/">instagram</a> lately and spending more time planning out content so it's nice to see that people are enjoying my recent posts.<br />

2017 has been a mix of ups and downs in my personal life. I don't share the sad or hard times on my social media as I prefer to keep that stuff private so it just goes to show that you shouldn't judge someone based on their instagram feed! Anyway...I'm looking forward to seeing what 2018 holds for us. We've had some really good news recently on something that was really hard for us to take in and accept back at the start of the year so we're so happy that we're stepping into 2018 with a positive mind and attitude and we're thankful for the outcomes life has brought us! Here's to a new year, new happiness, new memories and new goals.<br />

Hey guys! Welcome to the first day of Blogmas! Here's hoping this year I can actually stick to it and complete it :P I'm gonna keep the posts short so hopefully that'll help :P For my first I'm gonna post a few ideas for stocking fillers for her! Some cheap and cheerful gifts that are always fun to get! When I think of stocking fillers, I think of fun novelty gifts so that's what this post is all about!<br />

I'm normally not the person to recommend a facial wipe as they're so bad for your skin but I've only been using them for my eye make up so I'm only going to recommend using them for that reason :P<br />
<br />
I usually tend to use a micellar water to remove the majority of my make up before using a facial cleanser to properly clean my skin. I've recently been using the <a href="http://www.boots.ie/boots-simply-sensitive-micellar-water-10204529">Boots Simply Sensitive Micellar Water</a> and while I do think it's really good for taking off my make up, I find it really stings my eyes when I use it to remove my eye make up. That's why I've been using these wipes!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-kDUMBSz_eiZGehLmeYm6PajS5_xVEegzTBs17fcAyLdqKgsqeFtf4z0bliqGwsYoL57Cn1pwwH5GpC44PbsuPZNWG7VPIJk62BIeQTrlb5UoHA45Ie225L6henbWE9kr9cExDYOL_Tvt/s1600/23619057_10155572256881226_1515189340_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="480" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-kDUMBSz_eiZGehLmeYm6PajS5_xVEegzTBs17fcAyLdqKgsqeFtf4z0bliqGwsYoL57Cn1pwwH5GpC44PbsuPZNWG7VPIJk62BIeQTrlb5UoHA45Ie225L6henbWE9kr9cExDYOL_Tvt/s640/23619057_10155572256881226_1515189340_n.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
The wipes themselves are quite wet (I find other wipes tend to be quite dry) and they are mildly scented of grapefruit and apple which is a really refreshing scent without being overpowering. They take off my eye make up quite easily and don't sting my eyes which is a big plus for me. One wipe is enough to take off the majority of make up on both eyes and I obviously take off the rest when I use my facial cleanser.<br />
<br />
The wipes retail at <span style="background-color: white; font-size: 15px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">€</span></span>4.25 for a pack of 25 which is really good as they last ages (if you're only going to use them for eye make up). You can pick them up in Dunnes which I find much handier than having to find a specific pharmacy/independent retailer etc.<br />
<br />
On another note, I'm gonna be doing blogmas (blogging every day until Christmas) starting from tomorrow so snap me any blog post ideas!<br />

<br />
As you've probably seen from my Instagram and Snapchat, I was invited to Dublin to view the Primark Spring / Summer 2018 collection this week. It was absolutely fab and it was so lovely to get chatting to some new bloggers as well as catching up with bloggers I've previously met.<br />
<br />
SS18 has lots of mustard vibes which I'm loving. I've really been loving mustard these last few weeks so I'm happy it's staying. Other trends seem to be stripes, reds, denim and mules (yay!). I took a few pics of the collection and the event itself so I said I'd put them all up here. I can't wait for these to start arriving in stores from next month!<br />

I know it has literally been FOREVER!!!!! I've been so bad with blogging lately :( I kinda didn't know what to write about, lost motivation and we were obviously on holidays for most of a month so I've been deep in post holiday blues since :P Since we've come back I've been mad writing some posts so I'm definitely more motivated now but would love to hear suggestions for blog posts so please message me on any of my social media accounts if you have any ideas.<br />
<br />
I'm also in the middle of writing a blog series on Orlando. As most of you probably know, we've been to Orlando on our holidays for the last 5 years. We get asked so many of the same questions that I thought I'd finally write a few posts that'll hopefully answer them. I'm almost done so I'll start posting them soon. Anyway moving on to this post...<br />
<br />
Last week, my sister graduated from college. I didn't know what to wear and bought this <a href="https://www.missguided.com/ie/yellow-halterneck-pleated-swing-dress-10054465">dress</a> (currently on sale) to wear around Christmas as I thought it'd be perfect for that time of year. I had bought another dress for her graduation and the morning of the graduation I changed my mind and went for this mustard one :P It's not normally a colour I'd go for but I have to say I love it. I did go down a size in it as it was quite a big fitting. I also picked up these <a href="https://eu.riverisland.com/p/grey-tie-up-court-shoes-703248">grey shoes</a> on sale the day before and had no intentions of wearing them with this dress. I didn't think they'd be a great colour combo but when I tried them on together I loved it. I also had a long grey coat over it too which matched the shoes.<br />
