I got up at 8am. Weetabix for Ellis and down to reception to phone home. Grabbed a bag of Lays crisps and headed off to Typhoon Lagoon. Got there at 10.10am and met Jo and Pete and found a nice spot by the kiddie area. Ellis went off to explore the water cannons and I sunbathed for a bit. Neil and FIL went on crush n gusher and Ellis, Jo Pete and I went on Lazy river.
Those rings are sooooo hard to get into. Its a case of leap and hope for the best! - that didnt work so I took the ring to the steps and got in there instead. Had a lovely time chilling and relaxing. We stayed til 2.30pm then Neil and I headed back to the room to do some.....dare I say it...packing.
Cant believe we're thinking of packing already but we need to know how much space is "available" for new clothes etc. Ellis stayed with Nanny building sandcastles and they bought him back an hour or so later. Just to help with the packing I had a plain cheesecake and a glass of wine as I did it!
Had an early dinner as we'd only eaten half a bag of Lays and a cheesecake all day - my god I'll be wasting away!
We headed down to Kissimmee and ate in the Outback Steakhouse. Great meal again then we headed off to the Rodeo at Kissimee Stadium - 8-10pm.
Neil and I had been on our first trip in 1993 and we enjoyed it just as much this time. There was bull riding, kids chasing calves, goat tying etc. Take a jacket though as it gets quite cool sitting on those stands for 2 hours. - they're also made of metal so you might want something to sit on. A helicopter with his light kept going overhead and aswe left a man was being handcuffed at the gate and taken away! - oooooh excitement - never found out why though - he wasn't on the news so it can't have been that interesting! Back home for wine and the last slice from Publix.
Absolutely no photos of today so I'll stick one in of the castle from a few days before!
and this one!
and this one
Ellis' balloon hat from one of the restaurants - cant remember which one but they are come round most of them!
