From Screen to Scrap winners and my entry

Hi all,
Back home again. Oh, the washing!

Anyway, on a lighter note, the winners are in for October entries at From Screen to Scrap. The inspiration was My Fair Lady, a gorgeous poster. I love the main winner's entry. I picked it as my fave too. I also won the DT's submission pick. Here is my layout for your viewing pleasure. My Nan is the fair lady on the left. The bride (seated) is her older sister. Don't they look so lovely?

London

We have just arrived in London. We're staying in Kensington but our hotel suite is not available til later today. We are presently sitting in a little patisserie down the street from it. It is the best wifi connection we have had (surprisingly). It normally takes so long to do anything that I haven't bothered to blog.
Sorry about that.
We are trying to figure out if going to a Museum is what we want to do. Best to do something indoors as it is about 5 degrees celcius. Yuck.

1/2

Our holiday is half way over. Moving on to Washington tomorrow. Bit theme parked out. Quite sore feet.

Short and sweet

I am sitting in my suite at the Nickelodeon Suites in Orlando, Florida. They have free wi-fi here so you may read a little more of my adventure over the next 10 days whilst we stay here. It is midnight now though and I have to get up at 7am to go to Epcot so I will be brief.
Managed to do some laundry, which was badly needed. Will do some more toward the end of our stay.
We have 4 days of theme parks ahead of us so I'm sure we will need all the energy we can muster.
Paul did some touring plans but managed to either lose them or leave them at home. He's been busy re-writing one for tomorrow. I get motion sickness so I will be opting out of quite a few of the rides. I have to accept that about myself and not be tempted, hard as it is. Oh, well. What can I do?
Bye for now. Must go to bed.

Biloxi and Rick

We've travelled across the USA to Biloxi today. Took the whole day to get here but I'm very happy because tomorrow I am going to meet my fave musician, Mr Rick Springfield. He's playing at the Hard Rock where we're staying. I am very excited.
