June Challenge: 12. First Ride on an Aeroplane

12. First Ride on an Aeroplane
I consider myself a very lucky person with how much I have been blessed with and this blog just reminds me how I should count my lucky stars! My first ride on an aeroplane is probably the best experience that a child could have- I went to fly to America, and yep you've guessed it, I went to Disneyland Florida and I loved it.

Now, if you've read my summer blogs, you'll know that I was not a fan of flying until very recently so you can imagine what I was like when I was little. I went to Disneyland Florida in 1999, which made me 7 years old. I went with my whole family and we had such a lovely time! I remember being able to eat in Cinderella's castle in The Magic Kingdom and we were so lucky because I also got to meet Cinderella and Prince Charming just as we were coming out of the lift. Normally, you don't see them so for a 7 year old, it was everything to me!
And now I know it's the first challenge but going on the lines of feeling lucky and blessed, a year later I went to Africa, The Gambia and this is one of my best holidays- it was such a big thing when it was 2000 to go beyond Europe and as a family of 8, it was most unusual for us to go somewhere so extravagant but we went and i have such good memories of it! This is a picture of it, which I love. We made such good friends with the locals and other holiday goers. Let's just say, those tow yeras were pretty amazing! 
Cheerio, my loves!
