OMG - we are so full !

Had a very pleasant shop at the outlet store.

Nancy spending her last fifty dollars (again!) on a Juicy t-shirt, Jess going from a size large skirt to an XS size after Mark and I suggested what she had bought looked a bit big !!

Iona bought some tops and Adam bought 4 Starbucks.

Mark and I are returning our stuff tomorrow !

We then stopped at Golden corral and oh dear we ate and ate, Adam thought he was at The Windjammer all over again .....

The children looked like the chocolate fountain by the time they had finished, I must have eaten half a cow in freshly cooked steaks and Markie, well he was full after 4 starters and 3 mains and a few puddings !!

We have now found vouchers for said eatery but we are running out of days !!

Off to Discovery Cove tomorrow, as you may know this was our holiday treat last year, the Bahamas cruise being this year's treat.

However, when we bought the combination ticket for Seaworld, Busch Gardens and Aquatica ....... to add Discovery cove was only a little extra, it seemed too good a bargain to miss......

Those of you who know me will understand !!!

Anyway another treat for us all, god we are going to come down with a big bump next week.....

We will update tomorrow night !

We have a morning off to relax by the pool and eat my peanut butter on toast without rushing.

Sunday 28th

Had a really great day with the gang. Left the house at 8am and headed on the I4 to the I95 to St. Augustine, the oldest city in the US. It was lovely, very Spanish and colonial all in one !

Learnt a lot about Henry Flagler who seemed to have created the St. Augustine we see today. He built churches, hotels, railroads etc. We went on a trolley ride which taught us the history. Jess made notes and gave us a quiz when we got back !

We then spent time on St. Augustine beach, the waves were really big and stron but apparently they had been a lot worse during the week as a result of Hurricane Irene. We enjoyed jumping the breaking water....

Sandy and wet we got in the car and headed south to Daytona, passing the International Speedway track on our way to the beach where we drove the car on the sand and the children went swimming in the evening sand.

As the tide came in we were asked to move the car so we headed back to Orlando. The car is a real state !

Had tea in Taco Bell, now home in PJs watching the music awards on TV.

A good day x
