Phone ringing woke us up at 8am. I lifted the receiver and slammed it down again. Obviously done it to quick as it rang again 5 minutes later. Got up and organised and had breakfast in the food court. Jumped on bus to Downtown Disney as we were going to the cinema. Tricia said we were too early but I assured her it would be open. Arrived at 10am and surprise surprise it was closed. Seeing as we were too early for the cinema we jumped in a taxi and went to the Orlando Premium Outlets and had some fun shopping. Got carried away again. We went to the food court for a drink and a seat and I sat staring at my shopping wondering how I was going to get it home. At the table next to us a woman was conducting a group interview with 4 people for a job in a store. I thought it was a strange venue for an interview but maybe it’s just me. I listened carefully to their answers and thought that the girl in the black top with the brown hair was most suitable. After our short break we got a taxi back to Downtown Disney and had lunch in Planet Hollywood. I had grilled salmon which was gorgeous and Tricia had some chicken concoction.

Returned our shopping to resort and went for a swim. It was so hot today that the pool was warmer than the water I would have in a bath. When I started to swim I discovered I had a really sore shoulder but could not work out how or when I had hurt it. Had a chat with a woman from England who was going home the next day, she didn’t want to leave. We were also leaving Port Orleans Riverside the next day but we were switching resorts. After an hour or so we returned to the room and got showered and then went to MGM.

We went to Sounds Dangerous which was ruined by an annoying group at the front who thought it clever to shout, chant and scream throughout as well as flash a torch repeatedly. The CM only told them to stop when someone in the audience screamed at them to shut up!!! Had some dinner after this and then saw the Little Mermaid which is one of my favourites. Next up we did Muppet Vision3D which I love then we went into Pizza Planet for a few games of air hockey. As soon as I took my first hit I realised how I had hurt my shoulder, it was from playing this game at the Magic Kingdom. As I am so competitive I had to ignore the pain and I successfully won 3 games to 1. The security man who was standing near our table was looking at me like I was something possessed. Each time I scored he laughed. Left here and went to Tower of Terror. I complained the whole way about my arm being sore. When we got to Tower of Terror the wait time was posted as 20 minutes so we joined the line which was HUGE!!! At 9.50pm an announcement was made saying that the ride was closing due to technical difficulties. The man in front of me reckoned the CM’s wanted to get home early so they “invented” the problem. Went to see the 10.30pm showing of Fantasmic and then returned to Port Orleans. When we got in we started to pack as we are moving to the Wilderness Lodge tomorrow. The plan was that we would shove the bags we had used as hand luggage on the way here into the hold-alls. Unfortunately due to all the shopping I had accumulated this was never going to happen. In the end most of my new clothes were in a back pack and by the time we were finished we had 2 large bulging hold-alls, a bulging back pack, a bulging sports bag and a 2 carrier bags. We were going to have to buy another bag for getting this stuff home. I did lots of “I told you so” to Tricia. Before we came she had been adamant that we wouldn’t her to bring her extra hold-all as we both had so much space. Finally got to bed approx 1am. Never had any rain again today.
 
LOL,

that sounds just like me with air hockey!! Glad it's not just me :)
