Wed 14 June High of 86

Woke up again around 8am. There was no phone call last night about the Hummer so I rang them expecting a tough time. No problems! The Hummer is booked to take us out for an hour tonight at 7 for $120!! Happy again!! While I was on a roll I rang Mears to book our return shuttle for the airport on Friday. Although none of us want to go home yet! This is the only place we have been that makes us feel like that!

So jobs done for today and we set off to go shopping and get our final things. This really should have been done on the last full day but we are going back to Daytona for the Richard Petty Driving Experience for DS.

We walked so far up International Drive to a place called Soccer World sports bar and grill (someone had recommended the breakfast and the Sunday roast). DH and DS had large English breakfast and I had a sausage torpedo roll. We enjoyed it but I wouldn’t say it was anything startling. Then it was on the I-ride up to Prime.

Gap was the first stop only to see if there was anything new I didn’t see last time…honest! Got 2 more bras in L’eggs. We went back in Tommy Hilfiger and Nike and got a few bits in there and then got the I-ride down to Premium Outlets.

It took just under an hour to get there just shows how long I-drive is! Last time we came here it was on an organised shopping trip and we didn’t get much time here. We had a good look round this time and found a few shops we didn’t see last time. Found the cosmetics outlet for my Clinique make up but they only have certain shades/colours in stock so if you are pale like me you have got no chance! Had a good look at the jewellery wow! There are some gorgeous things!

Next was Pointe Orlando and yes you’ve guessed Foot Locker! We all think this is the best Foot Locker. DS and I got some trainers. We were laden with bags and had an empty wallet so it was time to call it a day.

Back to the hotel and we chilled before getting ready for the Hummer ride. We were waiting in the lobby when it pulled in (omg!) it was fantastic!! We were all so excited! The driver greeted us and we got in. He took us down to Premium Outlets because I was going to buy a ring that I had seen earlier. The Hummer turned a few heads! Is this what it feels like for the stars?? We parked up and I went to the jewellers. The ring needed re-sized and it wouldn’t be back in time for us leaving to come home so I didn’t get it…all together now..awww!

The Hummer had attracted quite a crowd sitting outside the shops DH said people were trying to look through the tinted windows to see who was inside! I actually felt quite embarrassed getting back in because people were looking as if to say who is that? We headed back up International drive, the hour flew by and in no time it was time for us to be dropped off at our hotel. We felt so special it was brilliant!

With the ride over we went for something to eat and called at Walgreen’s to get our pictures developed. It’s our last full day tomorrow sob sob!
 
another brilliant day :goodvibes
 

The Hummer is gorgeous! So pleased that you got to ride in it after all. Sorry to hear about the ring.
