Ah orlando, my first ever us city (dodging hurricanes). Got in an argument with some trailer trash within a day at the water park. Classy. Enjoy the trip chaps!

A Weekend in Orlando with Filthy Monkey and rxfleming (BA/AA Y/J/F Class)
Just a wee hello from MCO.
Sitting on AA2204 to MIA. We are just enjoying some pre flight beverages. Yesterday was fantastic. A full day at Universal and we practically rode everything we could. We may be suffering from whiplash however from the Rip Ride Rockit. What a bloody cruel rollercoaster. Photos to follow from Filthy Monkey in due course, as he was designated the trip reporter and photographer for the day.
Today we had a beautiful morning of Grand Siecle by the pool and some table tennis: I was brutally defeated! Photos to follow of course.
Ps. Turns out I was put into a full F fare bracket for my upgrade to First Class. Earned TP and Avios as F class. No wonder they were making such a fuss over me
thanks BA!

Lots more to come on this one, folks, once I find some time to update. We're now back in Miami and I left the group at breakfast in the Conrad, while I popped across the road to the office in Brickell. Hoping to get out of here at a sensible time and then head to Biscane Bay for a couple of hours on the water before we fly home. Oh, and despite rxfleming being scheduled to fly home last night, we still have him with us, but I'll leave him to fill you in on that one

Currently onboard the 208 out of Miami, en route to Heathrow. We left the gate 55 minutes late and are now sitting waiting for ATC clearance. Best estimate is a 22.30 slot, which is playing right into my hands! Oslo flight is at 12.40 and, if I'm honest, I'd be more than happy to misconnect and move my flight to next Thursday to start my New York trip
