How is it October already?

Well guys thank you for your reviews last week - sorry things have been getting grim again but hopefully a bit of Disney magic will cheer us all up. Also can I say hello to the new followers - Welcome aboard!

Finally I could use your help, when the JR trial is over it will be time to plan Erica's wedding and I am looking for suggestions - big or small, what colour dress etc. So PM me or pop it in a review and lets do some wedding planning.

SPOILERS - this week - Fun is had in Paris, the papers get worse rather than better and someone has an unexpected delivery!

...

The two families gathered in the hotel restaurant, Miranda, AJ, Gabby and Reggie were scouring over the theme park brochure, planning their afternoon while they waited for their orders to arrive. Ayesha on her highchair had a brochure of her own, which she was looking at with her mom. Miranda also had the park's Disability guide in her lap and was cross checking rides to find out which ones Bianca could go on.

"I think we should start on Main Street to watch the two o'clock parade and then pick one world to explore this afternoon, we don't want to overdo it on the first day." said Marissa, leaning over to check out the map as well.

"So where are we going?" Bianca asked.

"Discoveryland!" cried AJ. "There's a ride where you drive cars!" Reggie nodded his head in agreement, but looking round the table he realised the men were about to be outvoted.

"Well the only ride I really want to go on is the carousel, in Fantasyland I think." said Camilla, checking out Ayesha's map. "Le Carousel de Lancelot."

"Mommy can do that one." said Miranda referring to the brochure on her lap.

"I want to meet a princess," said Gabby, "And see the castle!"

"Another vote for Fantasyland." said Bianca, counting off on her fingers, "That's two for Fantasy and two for Discovery."

"Mom." begged AJ, hoping for her to back him up.

"I don't know." said Marissa, "Discoveryland sounds cool, but I want to go on the Pirates ride in Adventureland."

"That's one vote for Adventureland." said Bianca, "Miranda?"

"I want to go to Fantasyland." said Miranda, holding her up the brochure. "There are more rides that mommy can go on there too."

Bianca felt guilty as all eyes were drawn to her.

"Look I don't mind where we go sweetheart," said Bianca, reaching across the table to take her daughter's hand. "And if I can't go on a ride it just means I can take hundreds of brilliant pictures so you are not to worry about that, okay."

"But the final vote is yours." said Reggie. "So what will it be? Fantasyland, or will you join the vote for Discoveryland?"

"So no pressure." said Bianca with a laugh.

Just that moment the waitress appeared with their lunch order.

"Saved by the waiter." said Bianca.

"No I'm sorry but we need an answer." said Marissa, giving Bianca a nudge.

"Well then; I'm sorry boys but Fantasyland it is."

AJ hung his head in disappointment.

"But I think we should first swing by Autopia… is it… the car one; because I really want to give it a try." she added. AJ looked up into her grinning face.

"Cool!" he cried punching the air and almost knocking over the poor waitress trying to lay down his plate.

Marissa gave her girlfriend another nudge.

"What happened to we only go to one land today?"

"I had the deciding vote… I voted." said Bianca with shrug, she looked back at the three elder children now back to scoring the map. "It looks like everyone is happy."

"Mmm." said Marissa, grinning at the scene, but she also recognised it as a moment to turn on 'mom mode', "Okay kids, put the brochure away for a moment it's time to eat."

"Yeah," added Reggie, "Or I'll start stealing your fries!"
