Day 6 August 15th.......
It is so lovely waking up with the sound of the water feature in the pool and just to know that the sun WILL be shinning and it WILL be hot again[msnsmile2]
Spent the morning by the pool before heading to Celebration for a early lunch. We were talking about the fact that we were spending a lot of time eating at the Market Street Cafe but we love it there so much, the choice of food is fab you can get breakfast all day and we just love sitting outside watching the lake[msnsmile] We even had 2 rather large ducks try to join us[msneek]
After eating we sat in the rocking chairs for a while watching a few guys fishing, we also saw a gator pop his head above the water[msnsmile] DH took some great photos too[msnwink]
We then headed down the US27 to Eagle Ridge Mall - we have not been for years and won't be going again as we were not impressed at all[msnsad]
Quick stop at Walmart at Southern Dunes for a few supplies and even more pool toys, this time a 99c pink fish rubber ring that looks like a pink Dory from Nemo which YD fell in love with LOL worth every cent[clap]
Back at to the villa for an afternoon dip until we had a tunderstorn right overhead it was so loud the children both burst into tears but it was short and quickly over and it cooled the air down nicely.
Because it was nice and cool we decided to go to the Boardwalk. It was a really nice evening, we parked at the Boardwalk Hotel and walked through the lobby and out onto the boardwalk. We then walked round to the Beech Club Hotel to find Beeches & Cream Soda Shop for the world famous "Kitchen Sink Icecream"
We waited for 40 minutes before getting a table as it was peak time 7 pm and I have to confess once inside it was small, very very busy and so noisy and not really our cup of tea but we had promised the children a 'Kitchen Sink' so we waited to be serve which also took a while. What we did not realise was when they serve a KS they turn the lights down and make an announcement which was a bit embarrassing[msnembarrased][msnembarrased][msnembarrased]to say the least, anyway as you will see from the photo's it huge and we only managed to eat half of it[msneek] Would not go back again though and would suggest if anyone wants to go choose a quiet time[msnwink]
After that we walked back around the lake towards the Boardwalk Hotel and stopped to watch the Fireworks - but they were late[msnmad] The guy empying the bins said they had been delayed and he did not know why so we left[msnsad]
We had a lovely day and my DH took some great photo's some of which are below - enjoy![msnsmile2]
