    Great vlog as usual Katie as for stuff being shipped, our son texted from Boston to tell us he had shipped 26 boxes of text books home not to worry going straight to our storage unit take about 6 weeks, 2 weeks later had a phone call from storage asking if we were expecting a delivery 😮 luckily they helped us take it and store it, we are in our 70s 😅

    My son’s jealous you went to the Football. ⚽️ I think he’d like to go one time. He’s bought a few shirts from either the airport or Disney Springs over the years.
    Custard is easy to make from scratch.
    Lucky you a cruise for your birthday. 😮
    We’ve just got back recently from our first Disney cruise on the Fantasy. 7 day western Caribbean cruise.
    We also went to WDW a week @ The Contemporary before the cruise.

    Lovely vlog. Your countdown to your cruise will go by so fast. Exciting to get new outfits for it, too. I really do admire your diy skills. Have you learned from anyone or does it just come naturally?! 😂
    When you’re planning your day trips out, do you think you could consider Bok Tower Gardens? It’s such a beautiful place and I’d love to see it again. Thank you for sharing your days with us all

    • @Katiesfloridalife
      @Katiesfloridalife  Місяць тому

      Thankyou, no I have no experience with DIY whatsoever haha, but just decided I would give it a go.
      Jason and I went to Bok tower gardens when we first moved here in March but I don't think I vlogged it. Im not sure I would go back to be honest, as much as it was really pretty I think the $20 per person entry fee was too high, its not very big and we walked around in just over an hour. I think there is plenty of places that you can go for free or a small "per car" fee that are just as good. I know you can pay a family membership per year which is probably better value but I just don't think we would use it x

    The photos/pictures with the lights look really good in the living room. And what luck finding that table. We have done 4 international moves where our furniture etc., shipped by boat. Each time took between 4-6 weeks and we had a full container dedicated just to our belongings. BUT that was a long time ago. I have a friend who works with logistics and has said that things are still not back on schedule since Covid. When Mum died (2006) I considered shipping back some wood furniture and sentimental items but because it was not much I was told it would have to wait until there was space in a mixed load container and as such it could be 3-4 months. I decided against it.

    So enjoy these vlogs. We just got back from Primark wow! It was rammed !
    The reason the malls are busy especially Sundays is that many people go to eat at the food courts after church here as it’s relatively cheap food. But today I couldn’t believe how busy Florida mall was it was like Christmas!
    Yorkshire tea 40 bags we pay about $7 from Publix.
    Our 13 yr old daughter also struggles to get up at the weekends!!!
    Best Cod fish for us has been Culver’s (we just went again today) chips are same old though.
    Best sit down fish n chips is Friar Tucks near Clairmont. They have an English food shop next door too.
    We did the 3 day Disney Wish last year in April and it was amazing. Nassau was boring and this Nov we’re going on another cruise stopping there and we’re not getting off this time.
    Disneys island was amazing!
    They dress up usually as pirates on the last night but not everyone does.
    The theatre shows onboard were West End standard and for us the highlight of the cruise, they were that good!
    Costco for us was the hundred pound shop in UK now it’s Target!!!
    Thanks for sharing your journeys! We enjoy them so much! Gary & Gina

      We have been on lots of cruises that have been to Nassau and yes your right it’s boring, we won’t be getting off the ship that day, just be enjoying the ship!

    Hiya Katie, love your vlogs, we had a place in Florida for 12 years, gave it up as it was getting complicated. I think it's quite near where you are as we always visited Haines City's Walmart and Mannies and shopped in Posna Park. A nice place to eat is the Golf course next to Haines City Walmart - southern dunes, just go uo to the guy in the gatehouse and explain you are going to eat there, he will let you in, they do a good brunch too on Sunday's.
    Another great shopping place is the back Porch at Lake Alfred off towards Lakeland. Really interesting little place for a mouch around. Zara would like it too. They have an eatery there and they bring the food in a basket to your table, the cups and plates are throwaway polystyrene but it's a quaint little place, you would like it. They have great things for Halloween and christmas, think its an interesting place to vlog away from the parks. They have an antiques area too, they are all old cow sheds. Your mum and dad would like it too.

    • @Katiesfloridalife

Defo need to go back tho and look at their Halloween stuff as the shop is gorgeous!

      This is a UA-cam thing and yes it’s annoying but nothing Katie can do, I’m now paying a monthly subscription which stops all the ads plus you get a few other options
