Florida 2019 - it‘s here at last - Day 8


Today was supposed to be a trip to KSC. However, Tyler had a bit of a meltdown first thing so that was cancelled and he stayed in the villa with his dad to get over it while the rest of us headed to Vineland Premium Outlets.

Ben is a shopper when over here and even though the exchange rate isn't good he still managed to find bargains in Nike, Lacoste, Vans, Guess, Calvin Klein, Hugo Boss and The Sunglass Hut. I got a new Coach handbag and a lovely cashmere wrap. Stevie also got stuff in Lacoste, Guess and The Sunglass Hut. Brenda got Nike trainers for Lilly, a beautiful dress in Michael Kors for $40, stuff from Guess, Nike and Room Rack. I also got some tea towels from the Disney outlet store as when we passed the queue had disappeared. We'd passed a couple of times earlier and it was queued out! Apparently they were selling princess dresses for $1 or something. The shelves were pretty empty by the time we got in. Quite disappointing but I wasn't prepared to queue to get into a store!



We had some food in the food court, I opted for a Philly cheesesteak sandwich which was really tasty. The others ate from a burger place and Subway. Lilly asked for a sweetie after lunch and Brenda nearly dropped at $5 for a Kinder egg, which I thought were banned in the US? This was the toy!

Eventually we were ready for home and headed back. Tyler had had a good day with his dad, some quiet time, then some pool time and a movie.



We headed back out for dinner at Texas Roadhouse. Steaks all round for the adults, Stevie having the T-bone. It was also $6 margaritas so Brenda and I had a Sangria one each. The young boys had beer as dad was driving. The food was good.

Back home and by 10.00 we were all in bed. KSC tomorrow.

A bit photo light for the last 2 days, but that should improve tomorrow.

A shame about the trip to KSC but the retail therapy sounds like the perfect alternative!
