Sleigh bells ring, are you listening, Day 8, Happy New Year

[Pussycat Doll]

Happy New Year to you all

We’re up at 6, can’t shake the early mornings!

Cornflakes for breakfast sitting in bed!

Today we’re off to the Outlets at Vineland, we leave just after 9 because we anticipate bad I4 traffic and we want a disabled space to park. There is no traffic and we manage to park in a space right by the entrance by Banana Republic.

Starbucks for coffee which we drink sitting in the sun. The locals are all bundled up in big coats, the tourists are in shirts and tee shirts! It’s about 66 degrees.

We just wander around and look in a few shops, the man in Kay jewellers is trying very hard to sell us a bracelet but we’re not buying! I nearly buy a pen in Swarovski but decide that $50 is just too much, if it had been about $30 I probably would have! Richard buys a couple of leather bracelets from one of the little carts. Over the road to Tommy Bahama and I buy a hoody, Richard buys aftershave, we get an extra 10% off with a free booklet we have.

We visit the new Cheesecake Factory to claim our 2 free slices of cheesecake. For those of you that don’t know, on their website mid December they do a deal where you buy a $25 e gift card and get 2 free slices I’d cheesecake! I bought one for a Jane too so I have 4 free slices to claim! I have white chocolate raspberry truffle and Richard has salted caramel.

Home via Publix for garlic bread to go with the left over chilli tonight.

Ham and cheese sarnies for lunch sitting by the pool!

It’s a beautiful afternoon and we relax and swim. We then decide to clean the underneath of the pool loungers, they just get a bit mildewy with the humid weather.

We have a relaxing evening with our leftover chilli and cheesecake watching Midsomer Murders.

Sorry it was a boring one today!

Not boring at all, I love hearing what people do in Orlando apart from the parks.

[Ciano]

Sounds like a great day to me!

You dev deserved a day like this after all the work you have been doing!

[Palm trees]

Not boring, it's nice to read a villa owners trip report... and have a little daydream about my potential future plans!

[Melvin Pearce]

Sounds like a chill day with a little bit of shopping, glad the traffic was light for you and the parking was good. Vineland is always a nightmare, isn't it to park
