Florida-Disney trip 2014

So it's been a while since I've posted because I haven't had much to blog about but I recently took a trip to Florida in America with my Family.
We went during the Easter holidays in April and I was with my dad, sister, two nephews.
Me and my Dad stayed in the Walt Disney World Dolphin Resort while my sister and nephews stayed in  the All Star Movies Resort. Our hotel was so nice and homely but my sisters hotel was catered more for kids. We were there for two weeks and it was so much fun.

There was lots to do during the days you weren't going out and in the evenings, there were three swimming pools and two hot pools, there were many restaurants and you could take a 5 minute walk to Disneys Broadwalk and a 15 minute walk over to Disneys Epcot.



One of the first Disney Parks we went to was Epcot where we walked around the different country sections and then stayed to watch the fireworks afterwards, we could then easily walk back to our hotel. The sunsets in Florida are beautiful.

One of my favourite days was when we visited universal studios and I got to go to 'The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.' I love Harry potter and it was such a good expirience.
I recommend trying the butterbeer which is delicious and also getting a chocolate frog from Honeydukes. 
If you go to Universal Studios the rides to go on are:
-The Hulk 
-Harry Potter ride 
-Spider-Man 
-Rock it

The Starbucks in America is amazing, I love the marble cake which they warmed up, the low fat chocolate milk and the sweet barbecue crisps.

I loved Magic Kingdom because it reminded me of my childhood all over again.

I went to see the fireworks in Magic Kingdom two nights in a row and got in different spots each time, they were really good and a must see attraction if you go.

My nephew Riley stomped his feet and said he is not leaving Magic kingdom until he sees Mickey Mouse, it's great for kids and I loved seeing the smiles on my two nephews faces.

It was such ad good holiday and if you ever get the chance to go, do as much as you can because it is the trip of a lifetime.

Miley Cyrus Bangerz Tour 2014 London O2 Arena Tuesday 6th May

Miley Cyrus is a big public figure, wether you know her from Hannah Montana, her music or the outrageous twerking and tounge wagging, you have most probably heard of her and if not it's about time you crawl out from inside your rock and into the real world.

I watched Miley as Hannah Montana when I was growing up and I have watched every episode, I idolised her, she has been in the news multiple times since the famous blonde crop haircut all that time ago and it seems she has become what most people think of as an unacceptable role model. Personally I would not do the things that she has done but all in all she is her own person and she can do what she wants, also she makes so pretty awesome music. I loved all her albums be it Hannah or Miley and I listened to Miley's hit 7 things on repeat as a child, and last year she released a comeback single of 'We can't' stop' then her debut album Bangerz and because I liked her music I went out and brought he CD and memorised all of the songs because they were all catchy.

So the whole point of this is that on Tuesday 6th May 2014 I went to the O2 Arena in London to see her in concert. Her new tour is in honour of her album and is called the Bangerz Tour 2014. here is my expirience and what I thought of it, I didn't manage to get any photos of Miley only videos.

My dad booked us three tickets to her concert and I was so happy when I found out because I'd mentioned I wanted to go and he actually got me tickets. I asked my sister to go with me and we had a spare ticket so she asked her friend to come with us too.

(Photo: A panorama of The O2 Arena in London filled with cheering people and colourful balloons before the concert actually stared, the balloons were taken down just as Miley was due to come on stage.)

The atmosphere was hyped when you arrived and as people were talking, cheering and screaming waiting for Miley to come on stage. The lights were on and you were able to see the big stage and colourful balloons all around the arena.

(Photo: before the concert stared waiting for Miley to come on stage! Me-right, My sister-middle and Cath my sisters really nice friend-left)

We were all really excited but I was the only one who knew all of the songs and enjoyed it the most.

Everyone had their flashlights on and it created a really cool atmosphere, everyone was singing along, Miley sung really good as well.

     
(Photo: During 'Can't be Tamed' a bit inflatable dog was on stage, it was supposed to be Floyd who was Miley's dog that recently passed away) 

     
(Photo: Front of one my T-Shirt I brought, there were loads but I chose this one)

This t-shirt was £25 but there were other t-shirts and merchandise which were more expensive.
     
(Photo: Back of the T-Shirt I brought showing the list of Countries in Europe she went to) 

Overall I loved this concert and am so glad I got to go, this was also the first concert Miley performed after coming out of hospital which was lucky for me but she was awesome and it was so much fun. I can now say I have been to 2 Miley cyrus concerts as I went to the Wonderworld tour when I was 9. 

Sorry for the month after post, hope you enjoyed and my next blog will be on a beauty product...

EOS: Evolution of Smooth Lip Balms

When I was out in America I went into Walgreens and and looked up and down the makeup isles for ages deciding what to buy but I was pretty certain about getting as many of these as I could get my hands on...(or afford).
At only $3.29 each I got 6 eos lip balms and gave two to my friends which were the pomegranate and the blueberry acai, I kept for myself Srawberry Sorbet (my fav out of my 4) , summer fruits (which I also love), honeydew and tangerine, I decided not to buy the sweet mint because I am not a big fan of mint lip balms. 
These lip balms come in cute packaging and are in the shape of sphere. I think the design is creative and actually quite cool, they last a long time depending on how often you use them and they are super smooth, I now rely upon these as a day to day lip balm to keep my lips smooth and hydrated.
I recommend the summer fruits and strawberry sorbet ones as they are my two favourite flavours.
These are relatively cheap and you can get them here for $3.29:

Or you can get them in America in a drugstore or Walgreens where I got mine, these are currently not avaliable in the UK.
