Anyway, the storm wasn’t going anywhere fast and we ended up being stuck here for nearly 45 minutes…..
It never actually stopped after that time, we just made a run for it cos we were fed up waiting!
Chris wanted to go back to PGA Superstore to purchase a driver that he had been swithering about. It turns out they didn’t have it in stock though?
We fancied a visit to Longhorn tonight, so we put it in the Sat Nav and went to the closest one. It took us along the I-4 and onto the 192 which is the opposite end of where we normally go. The I-4 was crazy busy so it took us AGES to get there.
It was 5pm (ish) when we arrived so we only had to wait 5 minutes to be seated. We were feeling greedy, so we went for appetizers! First though – bread!
To start I went for spicy chicken bites and Chris went for a bowl of chilli. We were both very happy with our choices. The chicken wasn’t too spicy, it was more like honey chilli chicken. I loved it! Chris really liked the chilli too!
For mains we both ordered steak. A 10oz filet for Chris and a 12oz NY strip for me, both with mashed tatties and a Caesar Salad. They took a looooooooong time to come out. I just checked the time stamps on my photos and it took 40 mins for the mains to come! When they did finally arrive Chris's steak was overcooked. They were still tasty though and the mash is soooo buttery. Nomalicous!
The manager did come over to apologise about the service, but didn't knock anything off our bill. So we only tipped 15%. That'll teach em eh?
After tea we went for our first visit of this trip to our fave supermarket! It wasn't OUR Publix, but it would do. Here we purchased some eye drops that Chris's mum had requested and Chris's fave socks that he buys every year!
We then paid a visit to Super Target, but not OUR Super Target hehe.
I can't remember everything we got, but I do remember raking for a Groot toy for Jake and being unsuccessful. I was also on the lookout for a wee watering can. When I asked Abi what she wanted back from Disney, this is what she requested
I didn’t find one, but I did order her one from Amazon and pretended I got it at Disney
After that we headed back to the hotel. It was still raining btw. Glad it wasn’t a park night!
We got back at 7.45pm and I straightened my hair for the THIRD time that day. Damn rain and humidity!
It was time for another load of laundry (shut up laundry haters). We were planning to pop along to the Boardwalk for drinks tonight, but the weather (yep, still raining) had other ideas, so we made do with the hotel bar.
Chris got his new fave beer again and I got a vodka and cranberry! Oh, our barman tonight was called Chris and his passion was turtles
I went to throw the clothes in the drier while Chris ordered us a second round. My second vodka was v strong!
We chatted about our previous trips to Florida and how fast life is passing us by (depressing, I know). Chris pipes up with "I've been alive for 33 years and I can only remember about 15 days of that"
He does have a terrible memory to be fair!
He assured me he remembers our wedding day
Ooh, don’t you think the bar flooring has Spaceship Earth vibes?
Anyway, we left about 10.30 and went to collect the laundry before heading up to bed. I had hiccups all the way up to the room. Told you that second vodka was strong
Steps today – 20,127
Hope you enjoyed today's installment! Come back for day 7 where Chris golfs and I have some solo MK time before we spend the evening in a very soggy Animal Kingdom.
See more...
