We headed toward ITTBAB. It was a walk walk on and the queue was actually empty for the most part. It's one of my favorites.
My nephew is NOT a fan of this attraction. He's been there a few times now, first time when he was 4. He FREAKED...and I mean FREAKED out in there. We found that he cannot tolerate 3-D at all. It's not that he doesn't like it, it is that he can't tolerate it. He was diagnosed ADHD when he was younger and the doctor's said that it's common. I can't even describe to you what it was like with him in there before we knew. Every time I go inside, I think of him. He's getting much better now but he still won't go inside...
After all of the creepy crawlies, we decided to do a little shopping. Mom still had not found the hoodie that she wanted to get my sister. In and out of the stores we went for a bit. I really wanted to have lunch at Flame Tree but everyone was getting over heated and Joe's pain was getting worse. I wondered to myself if this was going to be the first year that we'd see the inside of a Florida hospital.
We decided to go back to CSR which meant that another year would pass without me getting to see the Jammin Jungle parade. I think next year I have to revisit my plan for DAK. Maybe going there later would be better even though they close early. Dunno, but I want to see the parade!
As we were walking back to the car I took this picture. On the way in my camera lens was so foggy. That's one thing I hate about the drastic change in temperature.
We got back to CSR and everyone was hungry. Um, why couldn't they be hungry 30 minutes ago so I could have gone to Flame Tree?
We went to the Pepper Market again. It was just eh this time. Mom had a Cesar salad which was hilarious to watch the dude make. First, we waited for the person working there to show up. Took him around 10 minutes. No kidding. I didn't really care but sheesh, that was a pretty long time to wait. Mom asked for her salad and get this....he gave her lettuce and the dressing. That was it. I asked him if he was going to give her the cheese and croutons and he said that no, that's the Cesar salad. The lettuce and dressing. I'm like, um, no, it's not. So then he said, "oh yeah." Finally, she got the rest of her salad. What would have happened if we threw in a request for chicken too?
I had the fruit plate. I figured that I should at least attempt to eat semi-healthy for one meal of the trip,
Joe had the ribs. I have to say, the fruit plate was awesome. Everything was at the point of being ripe to perfection without being over ripe, if that makes sense.
For dessert I got the strawberry cake (yep, so much for eating healthy for one meal.) It was yummy!
We went back int Panchitos to pick up the packages that we had sent to the resort from our trip to DTD. They filled the trunk, which made me laugh.
Once we got back to the room it was around 2 p.m. so I decided that I'd do some additional sorting for our trip to UPS and then I was going to do laundry. Mom said she'd come with me because she had some to do as well.
So, get this. It is $2 a load to wash, $2 a load to dry, $2 for the soap and a buck for a 2 pack of softener sheets. Holy crap!!!!!!!! I got a ton of change from the machine and started to do the wash. The wash cycle was pretty fast which was great. We moved our stuff to the dryers and that was when I noticed what my mom was washing. Her white load was 2 or three pair of socks and 3 pair of underwear!
I paid $4 for her to wash that!! Why didn't she put it in with my stuff?????? Her dark load was three pair of shorts I think and maybe 3 or 4 shirts. I wrote in my journal while we waited for the clothes to try and then took them back to our room. EVERYTHING at CSR looks the same so I ended up walking all over the place to find the room when I could have taken only 3 turns to get there.
When I got back to the room I asked Joe how he was feeling. We had dinner ADR's at Kouzzina and I was a bit freaked that we'd have to cancel. He was feeling fine...yay!!!!!!!!!!
She was so darn funny. Mom doesn't venture off alone ANYWHERE...like not even to find a bathroom, for fear of getting lost. Um, you had to see her go when it came time to find the life jacket. So cute.
) DH didn't love his pork chop, but we chalked it up to the restaurant having only been opened a few days when we were there. I'm sure they've perfected their seasonings & such. Did you find the hidden mickey in the lobby??
My mom was telling my brother about our trip last night. So cute........
If you ever make it over to London you should check out the theatre show of it. Is really good.
