Day 3 July 11th 2006
Up at 5.45 usual routine we are going for an overnight stay at Royal Pacific Resort have a *********** car booked for 7.00am. We had a different driver not as chatty as previous driver but nice all the same. Did not realize we would arrive at RPR so early (joys of new hols) checked in but room was not ready stored our bag at left luggage the staff here were lovely and friendly. We took a leisurely walk over to Islands of Adventure. Got there around 8 picked up the map was pleasantly surprised when we were let in at 8.25 made our way to Hulk and the boys got straight on (wicked) next to Doctor Doom (Tayler bottled this one) next to spiderman (this was Curtis fav) then onto dueling dragons (red one) Had noticed by now the fans around that had mists of water coming out liked these. On to Jurassic park boys not to wet, that's until they went on Ripley's soaked from head to toe. Might as well do the popeye water ride while so wet. (glad now I don't do rides) Stopped cant remember where had couple chicken burgers cheeseburger chips drinks $37. It is still only around 11ish thought it would be heaving but not even had not even had to use FOLP yet. Went to find the boat back to RPR and boys changed for fun around the pool. It was so lovely relaxing there had ice creams all round then it started to rain though not a lot but they closed the pool. So hopefully our room is ready its 2.30 and bingo it is ready. A very nice room too, lovely view, boys pleased the channel for wrestling is there. Think we were all asleep in half hour. The door knocking woke us was the fruit and water via joining Loews (thanks for the tip) We decided to be brave and go down to I Drive on as bus. Easily found the Lynx bus the driver said was $6 sat down to sort the cash out, when got off said to pay on the way back?? As we had got off at the Biggest McDs ate in there $18 for meals all round had a drink Pibb we did like that. Browsed in and out the shops until we came to the Go Karts the boys loved these and thought good value $19 for 3. Its about 9.00pm and have not got a clue where the bus is to get a english lady at a bus stop told us to go to other side of road and get off near wet n wild. Well what a trek back to RPR it was, made a dash across a huge road just at entrance to RPR. Back at last and it is 10.45 in time for wrestling at 11.00 asleep after 12 again. Universal Studios tomorrow.
