We all had an early rise again as we were still on british time. Mom and Mrs BiGGy decided to go down to reception to make the most of the free continental breakfast that the hotel had.

Now, surprisingly enough, mom didn't take her backpack with her as she didn't think it would be watertight enough for the free tea's and coffee's.

Needless to say, both ladies made the most of the ice bucket and a small tupperware box. Five drinks, handfuls of little milk cartons and numerous muffins and danish pastries made their way back to our room.

Mom had her legendary backpack....Mrs BiGGy had her deep pockets in her cardi.

Once everyone was up and ready it was time to head out for a real breakfast at sizzlers. Junior and DD were well happy with this as it meant they could have ice-cream for breakfast. It was also time for junior to break his world record of how many sausages he could fit on a plate. Mom and BiGGy were happy with porridge, DD was happy with her fruit loops and Mrs BiGGy was happy with her scrambled eggs and tomatoes.

Junior soon got sick of his suasages and took his home made ice-cream cone and went to sit in the car with his dad. BiGGy had gone to sit in the car to talk to his other woman, hoping she would give him directions to universal studios. He was still on his low fat diet and he wasn't getting any sympathy.

The ladies came back to the car and we were off. Mom was holding onto her backpack for for dear life. We all wondered why.

Valet parking was a dream. BiGGy knew that even though his other woman could give him directions, she still couldn't park a car properly.

Now, BiGGy was was on a mission that day. He'd not been able to see his comic book hero, Spiderman, the day before. So he took no chances and bought us all an express pass. He was determined not to miss seeing his other hero and lookalike - Shrek.

Mom and her backpack decided to find a bench and people watch while we were on the rides.

On the way round we found the shop that sells all the funny wigs. Mom tried on a funny afro. Mr and Mrs BiGGy looked at each other and thought, "This is where she left it then."

BiGGy tried on the dreadlocks hat, with the thought, "If only i could glue these on. They might not notice the bald patch then."

On the way round Junior, DD and Mrs BiGGy made use of their express passes and stormed the revenge of the mummy. All BiGGy heard as they ran off was Mrs BiGGy saying,"I'll get me thrills from this bloke then."

After that, junior was happy to see that there was a climbing part on one of the walls of the buildings. He paid his $5 and he was off. BiGGy was left wondering if his son was still using his powers of persuasion on Mrs BiGGy to gain his money.

We all sat down for a breather when mom said, "Anyone want a snack?"

We were all ready to go get some pretzels, Mrs BiGGy even got her purse out, when out comes bottles of water and numerous cakes and goodies from the backpack. Mom could have opened her own stall there and then. Even passers by were taking a peek at this cavern of a bag.

Cigarette and snack break over, DD wanted to see Spongebob Squarepants. As luck would have it, her hero was there. David 'BiGGy' Bailey got his camera kit out and was grateful that his lovely daughter was willing to have another picture taken. In the back of his mind though, was the thought that she had better not bring one home looking like that when she's older.

The express passes had come in useful so BiGGy marched us all over to IOA to see if he could get on his favourite ride, Spiderman.

As luck would have it, IOA was qiute empty and Spiderman was a walk on.

BiGGy was happy he'd seen both his hero's that day. He was wondering why the 3D glasses were still working for him, even after the ride had finished. As she walked off Mrs BiGGy could be heard mumbling,"It's your age dear!".

It had been a nice easy day. W were all ready for sizzlers. Junior wanted to see how many burritos he could fit on his plate.

Tomorrow the other woman would be put to the test. We were hitting Busch Gardens!.
 
hi Kaylee.

I got the sat nav just before we went on holiday to help with work as i do a lot of driving, and i loved using it when we were away, even though i have driven there before it took a lot of the pressure off having to work out where u was going, If where we was going wasnt already there as a point of interest i would add it in the night before.

soon as we got up jumped in the car and she gave me directions, was also handy because it would give you notice of up coming turns by voice.

Also found we were going the long way to disney all these years hehehe
