IanHi all! Today is our first full day in Orlando and we just used it for stocking up and enjoying then sunshine!
Well, jet lag genuinely kicked in for me today! I was awake by 0300 a.m. Florida time! I tried to get back to sleep, but I couldn’t. Mum was an utter tank and managed to sleep in until a reasonable time of 06:00, which, granted, was still early! There was not much planned today, which is just fine. The first stop was Wal-Mart, so we arranged an Uber and began our shop.
As with January, I am just as shocked by the enormous size of this Wal-Mart; it still surprised me as I went with Mum today. Mum was overwhelmed with the size, too! We got snacks and stuff we need for the week; no haul pictures this time. I got crema, which is new to me, but I’m glad I did; it makes coffee taste awesome. Shame we don’t have it in the UK! All in all, we spent $184, so we decided to split the bill, which is good for our wallets! We had so much shopping we had to consolidate it from 9 bags to 6 for us to carry! There is just too much good stuff at Walmart. I might have to consider renting a car next time! Once we got back to the hotel, it was time to unpack and have our lunch. Here’s what I had.
We let lunch settle down, and it was time to chill for the rest of the day. We decided we would spend it in the sun and for me read my book. While I enjoyed it, I did not realise how hot it would be! It was 33c in Florida, and I underestimated how hot that would be! I was dripping with sweat! I only lasted about 45 minutes. I know, I am an amateur, aren’t I!! So I headed back to the room and chilled there.
We relaxed in our hotel and continued to read. We enjoyed it despite the searing heat! I was surprised at how hot it was! I will have to try harder next time! We spent the rest of the evening in the hotel. I continued reading. For dinner, I had the ultimate cheese grill sandwich, and it was awesome. Mum had the shrimp stir fry, which looked nice!
Tomorrow, we head to Seaworld, which will be good, and I am glad Mum will get the chance to see what I saw that made it the best Park in Orlando. Join me tomorrow!
