We saw one of the new electric buses as we neared the hotel, hope that wasn`t one that caught fire recently, they do look very nice especially with the Potter images on them.
Our stop before we headed home today was ABC Wines, this is like a candy store to us 
so many items we can`t get easily in our country unless you start trawling the internet of course, but having so many different varieties of regular drinks are amazing to us.
And very tempting!!!
We`re not the biggest vodka drinkers, but friends love Belvedere, so it`s nice to have such a huge one on hand for cocktails and two of the guys do like it straight, so that is straight in the basket today.
Milagro Silver we use for drinks like Tequila Sunrise and I like Casamigos for Margaritas and other cocktails, so we really are like kids in the preverbial candy store here!
We had to go to the till area to get the Casamigos as they are behind locked cabinets, but they wrap all the bottles up well for us, although we do have bubble wrap and those plastic bottle containers that are inpenetrable. We`ve used them for years and fortunately we haven`t had one bottle break on us ever and we`re very grateful for that as I can`t imagine the state of everyone`s luggage if our tequila had been drenched all over it!! We would not be popular!
We carried our purchases into the hotel and they were a little heavy, thankfully one of the luggage guys saw us and offered to help us carry them to our suite, bless him, we were very appreciative and made sure to tip him well! But, as we sat all the bottles and ahem, large bottles on the bed, even I wondered where we were going to pack them.
It`s funny, when it`s alcohol Tom is convinced everything will fit.....
"it`ll be fine" is his mantra today lol.....we won`t need a new suitcase, but if it was all kitchen items we had purchased today, I was sure it would be a predicted disaster with extra weight charges!! But, to be honest, we were ok with luggage, everything would fit between the cases and our hand luggage as it is still a generous allowance that we never fully use. So, we put them beside all the other purchases, we`d deal with that tomorrow.
We showered and changed before heading over to the Club Lounge for the last evening visit of this trip, we had plans tomorrow night and wouldn`t be over to we`d be saying goodbye to a few tonight too.
On the way over although the Brazilians were now gone, the displays and photo ops were still there so of course one couldn`t resist popping in one that looked like it was covered in bacofoil!
The lounge was fairly quiet tonight, salad, pasta and meatballs which all looked nice but we never touched anything, we did however enjoy a few glasses of prosecco which were very much appreciated tonight, we planned to get an Uber later as we were going offsite for dinner. But, it is always a lovely way to spend some time relaxing.
I think tonight we hijacked one of the TM`s, we got talking about movies and ones she had never seen some of which genuinely shocked us!! How could you never have seen Die Hard or Ghostbusters!!!
It was a kind of follow on from a conversation early in the trip where some young folks and some not so young folks had never heard of Laurel & Hardy, Charlie Chaplin or even Abbott & Costello which were staples for me growing up.
Ever felt ancient????
The lovely Emily asked me to write her a list of movies she had to watch including a load of Christmas ones she had never seen, so I did and handed it to her the next morning. But, we spent ages just chatting to her and thankfully they weren`t too busy so they could spare her.
We said our goodbyes to some of the other TM and then headed down to order our Uber which was only 3 minutes away.
The bridge over to RP is very pretty, it is a lovely hotel entrance, even prettier at night and it`s very rarely empty like this so we always try to get a picture when it is like this.
Tonight we were going to BJ`s, there are a couple of them around, we`re going to the one opposite the Mall at Millenia and we`ve been before and we were impressed with it. We did think about one near the eye, but we were advised to avoid it, always good to have locals give an opinion, so this one would do us nicely.
It takes less than 10 minutes to get there, I was glad it wasn`t a longer journey as this driver was a little wreckless to say the least, well, he took a few chances that I wouldn`t consider, but we got there and that`s all that counts. He was friendly too.
Usually we sit at the bar, but tonight we opted for a booth and we had another lovely lady taking care of us, we studied the very large menu`s and ordered two cocktails first. Mine was a Spicy Mango Margarita and Tom I`m sure ordered White Peach Boba-Rita something different for him and they were both lovely, very refreshing.
And I did ask for mine to be extra spicy and it was, made all the difference to the drink.
It is a nice place, we really like it and it wasn`t overly busy, but busy enough for us, we chatted for a time about the trip that was rapidly coming to a conclusion and it`s always bittersweet as although the time here is precious, it is lovely to get home and see Kyle and our friends again. We did plan a week up in Scotland when we got back to see family, they live about five hours from us and we do miss them too of course, but we always want to make the most of our time here.
I do have one friend who says being away a week is enough for them, any longer and they get homesick!!!! Er, no. I think it was different when they took their daughter on their trips, but she is now working and only gets 4 weeks vacation time a year, so no more two week trips with mum and dad three or four times a year. The joys of starting a career 
We both ordered steaks tonight, one bacon jam spicy rib eye and a rather small looking but deep sirloin with a garlic butter. Both dishes came with garlic roasted veg and we opted for fries too. And we hoped those steaks were as rare as we asked them to be.
The steaks were perfect, I cannot remember the cost of them but they weren`t expensive and were very tasty, we weren`t sure what to expect but we were pleasantly surprised with them and they were indeed rare as we asked. The veg and fries were nice too so overall this meal had been lovely and we again were glad we visited tonight.
No room for dessert and those cocktails were very strong so we stuck to one then got the check and headed outside for our Uber that was waiting for us as we stepped outside, my goodness it was still boiling hot tonight, there was no reprieve from this heat these last few days.
Back home, we got to our suite and ordered a large pot of tea from room service, we had some treats in the room to go with our tea so it was lovely to enjoy after a nice meal. We watched tv for an hour or so and we were in bed for around 11.30 and we looked forward to our last full day in Orlando tomorrow.
; especially as he has you in his corner. 
I admit I met her eye as they passed us and she did screech a rather scurrilous, uncouth, imbecilic and rather cretinous remark to which I could only laugh at thinking, is that the best you got!! 
so I will check it out next time.
at Universal. I absolutely LOVE ice cream and dont know how I missed this one. So much to do and so little time, lol.
