It's not known if the whole family is back out for their second visit.
£20k park tickets
Based on the cost of a seven-day
Disney
visit, which would require each guest to hold a 7-Day Magic Ticket for entrance, Sue and Noel could have forked out £20,065 for each of their Florida trips this year.
Luckily for Sue and Noel, children under the age of three go free. So some of the children on the trip won't cost a penny to get into the park.
The tickets include access to the park and water parks with the eligibility to enter multiple parks per day.
Holders will also have the 'memory maker' package which includes unlimited Disney photopass downloads - pictures taken by photographers around the park, on rides and in
restaurants

And that's without any food in the villa or out in the parks.
