A well earned day off

Our plans for today weren't too much - have a big sleep in was first on most of our agendas. We spent a couple of hours by the pool. It was very hot so we were continually in and out of the water.  We stayed until we were all water logged. 

We decided that we need to give Bailey his fix of mini-golf but as the other Outlet Mall was close by, we should have a look there first (whilst it was still really hot) and hit up the mini-golf later on. The course we wanted to play was supposed to be awesome at night anyway.

It is amazing how time flies when you are engrossed in what you are doing. Of course Bluey found Adidas, so he was content for a fair while and even Bailey was having a great time in there this time. It seemed like we had been there for 1.5 to 2 hours when Bluey suggested we grab something for lunch which Gena found amusing. The reason - it was 7.30pm! Bluey forgot that he didn't get up until lunchtime. Okay, so dinner time instead. At this stage, our plans were thrown a bit as a thunderstorm had rolled in and looked set to stay for some time. The climate here is so much like Queensland - hot and humid and when it rains, it really rains.

We had a great meal at an Italian restaurant and when finished, it was still raining (and still hot) so we headed for home. Bailey would have to wait another day for mini-golf. We then heard that there was a Disney Outlet store here, so without hesitation, off we went. Well, Gena and Bluey were in a frenzy here. We were all shocked art the prices and G & B took impulse buying to a new level. I reckon we are going to have to get yet another suitcase?

So, eventually we had to go, as we were running out of time to get to the last I-Ride trolley, all of us lugging big shopping bags. I reckon my folks even shocked themselves when we got back to our apartment and they went through everything that we got?
