area here at terminal 3 at heathrow is so nice so i'm going to meet the team i'm fly ready as we know so i have all my documents i'll be honest it still doesn't feel real and when i say that like it feels like someone's playing a practical joke on me like someone's going to say ha ha that was a practice run for when you actually go in the future and i think because benjamin's not coming with me as well it just feels all a bit surreal and i've waited so long to get back to the parks and there's so much to enjoy and see i just i'm shaking i'm just like i can't contain it i just feel a little bit overwhelmed but um anyway i'm gonna try and find the people i need to meet and then i'll come back to you i'm gonna go through check-in and security and uh and then i'll see on the other side we're gonna go to the clubhouse uh virgin lounge this morning so i'll show you that because i haven't eaten anything yet so let's go we are through security i'm just gonna walk through duty-free the first thing i want to do is fill up my reusable water bottle because it's empty and i've met a few of the fellow group that are joining us on this trip everyone is super lovely there's something pretty special about having a mutual love for disney you know um oh drinking water there we go all right that one is out of service so we'll have to do round two i don't need to buy anything um some of the other ladies have gone to buy some bits that they need i don't think i'm anything for the flight i might pick up maybe some crisps or i don't know i haven't eaten any breakfast yet um but oh my god it's just so surreal knowing i'm going to disney i just still doesn't feel real are you the kind of person that sprays your perfume when you go to the airport because i am thank you oh kylie skin's got a massive stand oh don't be itching that's what we want this way let's pop in there and get some get some food so i'm going to get my own water obviously but this is my favorite juice this

some of those the lovely team at virgin atlantic have uh given us access to the clubhouse this morning which is such a treat i don't want to do any shopping i want to save myself and my pennies for the merch out there obviously so i'm going to try and find the clubhouse and we'll go and see what that's like i've always been intrigued oh yo sushi's here this is where benj and i ate when we came to dubai oh they're currently closed at the moment but it's a great um meal because it's quite light having sushi isn't it although it's early this morning probably one sushi in the morning but hey all right let's find let's find the clubhouse okay we're going to the clubhouse this way is it upstairs or oh this is throwing me off it might be upstairs yeah it's upstairs oh my gosh it's got a seat whoa take a little seat in the lift okay wow this is so nice oh wow this is incredible oh my goodness okay so she told me to go all the way down to the end so let me just find my group and then we'll come back the menu is really good so there's loads of options um so you can literally have like your eggs benedict for english they have forage and fruit there's lots of people in here enjoying their breakfast this is a really nice way to start your travel day and flight wow we've got a virgin redhead um cocktail how exciting okay so i've got a sausage bat with ketchup just wanted something easy and light comes on this cute little tray so that's a wrap on being in the virgin clubhouse absolutely divine like such an amazing way to start your trip having everything you need a lovely little space nice and airy and open just 100 come back here benji would love it here so i'm doing this one-handed i'm vlogging going down the stairs this is not my best idea okay okay i need to get in closer to you i swear you might oh baby i'll be waiting for you now we are one step closer we're all in this together put your hand in mine yeah we are one step closer can't feel it baby okay so the food is here i've gone for the salmon with potatoes and mash it smells really good a little cake a bit of salad yeah amazing that was so delicious my salmon and peas having the new potatoes were so good and the little cake don't know what it was it was like a raspberry sponge thing lovely beautiful watching selling sunset and yeah i'm just happy the time is going really fast i think for like six hours to go i'm playing on my switch and they've just given us tea in a proper mug which is just so nice okay so this is the little snack bar in premium economy so you can just come up here and help yourselves so we've got chocolate biscuits lots of lovely little treats um i've gone for some sweets because they looked quite nice uh we've got popcorn i might try one of these actually maybe we'll try this one and there's also juice and water so you know if you fancy anything you never have to wait and just come up here they've got naked bars they've got what else is this what's this at the back oh pretzel bites they sound nice i think we might have to take a selection that's what i got i've got some sweets i got these and i've got some chocolate i might not eat them all now but at least i can pop them in my bag and have them later if i want but yeah i got a glass of water as well because you've got to stay hydrated oh we got a cute little ice lolly i am fully snacked out to be honest but i'm not going to say no to a little fruit lolly how cute i'm trying to defeat this stupid level on kirby which by the way is a really great um game if you're looking for any switch game but yeah i really love it the ice lolly is so cold that it's sticking to my tongue i need to warm it up a little bit oh my gosh delusional we've got four hours and 15 minutes left so past five we have three hours to go i am still doing a white actually i thought you know long-haul flights the longest flight i've done in a long time actually nine hours um i'm watching selling sunset i've been playing on my switch we've had loads of snacks been fed and i've had a coffee as well so i thought i'd get some caffeine in me so i can beat jet lag that's the goal anyway i want to meet the jet lag because we're going to be awake quite late tonight have i told you when i was staying oh my gosh i don't even know if i've told you i'll show you when we get there so we're meeting some of the disney team as soon as we land we're getting straight to the resorts and won't have much time so i'll show you around a little room tour and then we're going for welcome drinks and dinner so it's full-on and i'm just so excited oh my goodness look at this lovely little afternoon tea we've got these really nice little cakes in there we've got a warm scone like it's actually warm and some little sandwiches so we've got mozzarella tomato chutney and pesto and cream cheese and dill and white bread so i'm gonna enjoy this very much while i am watching selling sunset i am on episode seven so i have definitely been been watching this and i have no shame that afternoon tea was so good the sandwiches were amazing the squad was warm and the little cakes were tasty too and i had another cup of tea trying to get some caffeine in mickey mouse um but yeah the sandwiches were my favorite part it was really really good i feel really satisfied i've had lots of food and snacks and drinks and the flight has been dreamy like really lovely and actually being in premium economy having a little bit of extra space like it's it's just nice and yeah i just especially when you stand next to somebody you don't know it's just nice um the trade table is just nice it like pops out oh yeah nice it's about 30 degrees when we're landing we've got 25 minutes to go it's uh five hours behind so it's three o'clock there it's eight o'clock my time so i'm gonna have to get on time zones as quick as possible so the trick is to try and stay awake for as long as possible on this first night first day because i'll be up early tomorrow oh we're coming in it's gonna be amazing it's gonna be an amazing week so many of you have sent such lovely messages thank you so much honestly well the band signs have been turned on as we'll soon be landing

lighthouse it's so pretty everywhere oh my gosh this is so pretty so we're going to ale and compass for dinner did not look at the menu don't know what it's like this is a very new experience for me this is absolutely gorgeous the grounds it very much reminds me of newport bay at disneyland paris very pretty i'm in the lobby at the yacht club it is absolutely incredible in here i absolutely love resort hopping by the way like going and trying and seeing different um hotels but this is where ale encompasses i have not looked at the menu i don't know what it's like but that's why we're going for dinner tonight we were gonna go to viennapoli in epcot but the plans changed that might happen over the next few days everybody's so lovely and understanding that i'm vlogging i sort of just take myself away to chat to you a little bit and i wanted to see if they had like a little gift shop or anything um i don't think they do oh my gosh how cute come on let's go up here oh my goodness this is absolutely stunning i would love to stay here one day i just love all the nautical theme the anchors look at the detailing i'm sorry but like look at that i'm so easily pleased absolutely beautiful let's go upstairs have a little look oh there's a big wheel does it actually move or oh it does it does so you can steer the ship inside the lobby very nice we've just finished our dinner at the airline compass it's quite late now uh we all shared some bread with different um spreads so it was like a butter a bacon jam it was like yeah selection of bread and then we shared some truffle fries and i had a chicken flatbread for my main which was really really delicious like i couldn't actually eat it all just because it's been one of those days it's been a travel day i'm a little bit thrown off but it was a really really delicious flatbread and then we didn't have desserts so we're just leaving now and walking back so i get to walk from the york beach club back to the boardwalk and it's so beautiful it's lit up i think the boardwalk at night is just magic like all the lights and you've got like some of the restaurants have got loads of lights on them and we passed jelly rolls which is where they have like evening entertainment and stuff um so yeah just really happy to be here i've had such an amazing day i'll talk to you more when we're in the um hotel but it's been amazing it's

immigration everything was a breeze like no issues no delays um just really easy like no time has passed like blows my mind i've waited years actual years to be here and then just like that it all just happens again and then we've checked into the hotel been for some drinks went to the press conference launch i honestly feel like such a hot mess after traveling all day and just yeah i mean what is going on there we go that's better um right before we wrap up this vlog i want to show you what was in my goodie bags that disney very kindly gave us take the watch off take my magic band off they've actually given me a magic band but i did bring my own of course i brought my own guys of course i brought my home i honestly don't know what to say other than thank you so much to disney i
