Is there more to be said about today's activities? If not, it will be my shortest day by a long chalk!

We've just got back to SSR from Universal, hence the gap in my posting, and also the huge gap in my memory, so there will be little to say other than some vague times, what we drank and a few piccies - my apologies. Those looking for an accurate rendition of our trip will need to wait for Deb's report once we are back!!

We're awake pretty early (around 5.30 I think), so I decide to have a wander down to the Boardwalk to take a few piccies as the sun rises. Sadly though the lights on the restaurants are not on, which makes the photo's a little less good

I spend an hour or so watching the place come to life, interrupted only by people jogging - what is it with people jogging on holiday - don't they know they're on holiday, can they not have a holiday from jogging too? Having sad that I drink on holiday and at home so I guess by the same token I should have a holiday from drinking? - Nah, never gonna happen

Some shots from the early morning activity...

...Amen to that Brother!

I return chez Churchill and we prepare to head off to EPCOT, we take our time and find ourselves sat waiting for the champagne stand to open at around 10.30, it is stall no.1 so seems the best place to start to us.

We then wend our way around the lagoon, sampling various items. Luckily I get a record of what we drank, so here it is...

Reims, Champagne...
Me - Nectar Imperial Rose;
Deb - Nectar Imperial;

Shanghai, China...
Shared a Mango Gingerita;

New Delhi, India...
Me - Kingfisher;

Hops and Barley...
Me - 13th Annual Festival Lager, Sam Adams;

San Francisco...
Deb - Rosenblum Cellars Kathy's Cuvee Viognier;

Tokyo...
Me - Kirin Ichiban
Shared - Hana Raspbery Sake;

Louisiana...
Shared - Abita Purple Haze beer;

And not forgetting the obligatory Spaceship Earth shot...

We get to the UK somewhat pooped out after all the walking, so sit and have a rest in front of the bandstand - sadly no show for British Invasion today, but a good place to stop for a Guinness and glass of wine nonetheless.

The wander on to Canada and decide to have a squizz at O Canada, which I think is quite good, and I even manage to not fall over.

After this we are both quite bushed so a wander back to BWV is on the cards, stopping for a few moments to listen to Off Kilter.

Despite planning to go out again in the evening we decide to stay in, so a low drinks count, with just a Bourbon to go from the Belle Vue for me.

Tomorrow, Universal here we come...

Lovely photos, Matt...

And Deb seems to be sharing too many drinks - OK that's 9 words...

Hi Matt! Haven't read this report yet. It just popped in and I wanted to say hi in case you're still at the computer. Back after I read what you've been up to.

Low count?! Matt, you're too modest.

Have fun.

Great pics

I agree Matt, who on earth goes on holiday to jog ? The nearest I get to exercise is dashing for Soarin' fastpasses or lifting several Bahama Mamas to my mouth

Great pics again, and it's nice to see Deb with her usual two drinks in hand

Do you feel that you're still on track to reach your alcohol goal

I look forward to the next installment

Gosh I always take my jogging gear for a quick one around the Boardwalk at 5am in the morning, I thought everyone did

Great day Matt

When I'm at home working I don't drink on Mondays, Tuesdays and occasional Wednesday, so really look forward to our holidays when I can relax on my self imposed restrictions. I walk to work of around 6 miles a day so do about the same if not more on holiday. But I most definately eat soooooooooo much more on holiday.

Loving your photos and your report.
