Welcome Home, Now Relax ~ Day 4 - Shopping, baseball and Mardi Gras

[Cyrano]

of the lack of crowd control at USF

Thanks for explaining where the pitcher's mound is - I had no idea either! Sounds like a scary experience at Universal, I certainly wouldn't have wanted to be caught up in that. Glad you enjoyed Kelly Clarkson though. Americans always ask us if we are related to her as we have the same surname!

I'm jealous you got to see the Yankees play. I wanted to do that when we were in NY but we went to the zoo instead

 

[jackieleanne]

Sounds like another great day, great that you got to see the Yankees and also that you got to see Kelly Clarkson I love her.

 

[Chilly]

What a great day, apart from the crowd control that is.

 

[jjk]

fantastic that you saw the Yankees

Oh my David,after seeing your pics i am so glad i did not go to see Mardis Gras/MCHammer and put my girls at that risk by a complete lack of security!!!!!!.Glad you were safe enough+got to see Kelly .
You done so much today-i remember going to Festival Bay Mall last time+to be honest thought it was a waste of time-there was hardly any shops there,just spaces to rent-is it still like that now?.x.

Oh I don't know, with MC Hammer you probably would have been the only one there. As you didn't make it I'm glad we were able to get some beads for you.

If it weren't for Bass Pro we wouldn't bother with Festival Bay. It was difficult to tell as the shops weren't open when we were there anyway but there did appear to be a lot of empty units or 'coming soon' fronts.

The baseball looks like great fun!

Shame the crowd control was so bad at Mardi Gras. At HHN last year I didnt notice any problems

Watch it sunshine ,the girls loved the beads and wore them quite alot on the holiday-along with some others that MK were giving out on Main Street ,not seen that before.

I often wondered if Festival Bay would take off-seems not then.x.

I didn't spot any being given away in MK.

I was going to say maybe Festival Bay is a bit too far up I-Drive but then again the Outlet Mall is just a bit further up still.

Another lovely day. The only time I get annoyed with the crowds is the grid lock in front of the castle at Magic Kingdom. It was a nightmare last December with people pushing pushchairs at you. I always feel so sorry for the little kids here because at least I can see roughly were I am trying to go but the little ones would just see people.

 

[mark&sue]

definately sounds to chaotic. glad you enjoyed the concert apart from this

We had the same complaint at US. Surely they must know by now that people will stand on the street directly opposite the stage, so it will be difficult for others to get out. They should put barriers up after Twister and force anyone trying to get out to go round the back and towards the 50's cafe (sorry couldnt remember the name)
Other than that sounded like a full and enjoyable day.

Great day, apart from the crowds
