Disney Springs Day

Ok, we're back! Or...I'm back, . Am I two people now?

Our day 2 was our Disney Springs day. It started off pretty well, and it did end HOT, lol, but it was all good!

We woke up and decided to take our time, with a goal of getting to the buses at around 10. We had to wait a few minutes for a bus but not too bad.

The bus was mostly full, surprisingly!

Does anyone else find Springs hard to navigate? I felt like we were always getting turned around.

Our first stop was the Lego Store. This was unfortunate for us, because we ended up buying a LOT and carrying it all day.







The line at this time of day was pretty short, so that was a plus . We did have fun browsing and considering. We thought about making the personalized Lego figures but decided against it.

After that, Ashlyn wanted to find the Crocs store, which we soon discovered wasn't there! We browsed the World of Disney and got some ideas for future home decor. Also, I looked at some Pandora charms...but I held off and got the necklace at Magic Kingdom a couple days later!



We checked out Pin Traders, Goofy's Candy Co, and several other shops. Then my sister called and said she was en route to Springs.








We had a plan to take the boat to Old Key West to eat at Olivia's. We were meeting my parents and my uncle and aunt, who love in Florida and had driven up for the day.

It was a hot boat ride! But Olivia's was delightful and filling. Not too heavy! And our server was so nice!





Spending time with my uncle and aunt was nice! We didn't take any pics though, I am now realizing.

Now we had a plan to go to my parents resort, Riverside, to swim. We didn't think through our plan though . We had to take the boat back to Springs then take the boat again to Riverside!

We jumped through those hoops, got to Riverside, changed into swim wear, got in the pool...and the lifeguard blew the whistle. Lightning in the area .

Well, at this point we said our goodbyes and hopped on a bus to Epcot then caught a bus to Sports. We could have Ubered, and probably should have! But it all worked out.

We ended up finishing our night out at the arcade . It was fun, and overall a good day!

We took this right outside our room at Sports. We were right by the surfs up section!
