Busy busy day

Today Mr Messy and Little Prince had a boys day out. They went to a museum dedicated to weapons - very Boys Own!!! Little Prince apparently ran through the galleries making gun noises for an hour, then announced he was tired and hungry and wanted to go home!! So they visited the cafe and even that didn't revive him, and they reluctantly came back home. Little Prince meant it when he said he was tired, and was fast asleep in the car when they arrived!!
My Best Friend came round and we sorted out the final details and BOOKED our trip to Disneyland Paris NEXT MONTH :-) We are staying at Disney's own Hotel Santa Fe, which is the cheapest hotel, but we only use it to sleep so there's no point being in one of the nicer ones. We also prebooked a character breakfast and the half board option (we are given vouchers to spend in any of 7 restaurants for each of our nights stay). I'm so excited - I just can't wait :-) Little Prince is excited too, as there is a new ride in Paris based on his favourite film - Cars, guess where we'll be spending a LOT of time lol. We are travelling to Paris via the Eurostar, which is something we haven't, in our many trips there, ever tried before - so that should be excited too :-)
Me, Drama Teen and Fraulein were meant to be having a girlie shopping day, but I spent so long sorting out Disney with Best Friend and then chatting for ages, that we didn't have time!! I'm sorry girls. We had to take Drama Teen straight to her Stagecoach club, and then me and Fraulein went to the shops. She had never been in a Primark before and was very excited and impressed with the range and prices :-) We had a lovely three hours wandering round the shops and luckily managed to get all the last minute bits and pieces that Drama Teen (desperately!!) needed for her trip to France with school tomorrow!!
