Woke up - looked outside - its still raining.
Breakfast again at the QII before being collected at 9am to be taken to the Wyndham Palace Resort & Spa at DTD for our briefing with the Virgin Wedding Co-ordinator at 9:30am.
This was a superb meeting, although the rep does try to sell a few extras. She went through everything we would need for the wedding. We upgraded on our photo package and sorted out the colours for the flowers.
The taxi then took us to the courthouse to get our licence. We were finished there by about 12:30pm and asked the taxi driver to take us direct to Gatorland.
By the time we arrived the rain had stopped and the sun was shining beautifully. Gatorland was brilliant.
We watched all the shows and Heather and Mat had their picture taken sitting on an alligator's back. The feel of the whole place was quiet and peaceful and we loved it. You really wouldnt need more than about 4 hours there though.
Left there at closing at 5pm. Hadnt a clue how to get back to I-Drive so called a taxi who told us to wait 45 mins - this is definitely when having a car would have been useful!!!
So we sit in the car park waiting and waiting. But at least the sun is still out!
Get back to I-Drive to eat and have a look round the shops. Some cheap bargains here!!! Bought some pressies to bring home and all the postcards.
