Today was always planned to be a resting day at the villa. Being Thanksgiving, we are avoiding the parks as we believe they will be busy. Other attractions like Top Golf/crazy golf are all closed along with supermarkets, stores and restaurants.
We had our normal croissants, crackers, ham and cheese for breakfast, then spent the day relaxing in and around the pool. We also had fun playing pool in the garage.
Around 5pm we got ourselves sorted and headed out to hopefully find dinner. It was quite strange driving around with everything closed and all the car parks empty. Having looked online at a number of restaurants Ruby Tuesdays was claiming to be open, "so you don't have to cook on Thanksgiving". The only one around here is about 20 miles north at Clermont. We had everything crossed but were doubtful when we saw everything else closed including McDonalds and petrol stations.
We needn't have worried they were open and quiet when we arrived. We had a lovely dinner (forgot photos tonight). Keith had teriyaki salmon, Sarah had ribeye, ribs and shrimp, Stephen a burger and I had a pound of shrimp - half grilled in garlic butter and have breadcrumbs. Sarah and I had cocktails, keith a beer for $1 (it was happy hour) and Stephen a lemonade as he was driving, much like he's done for most of the holiday!
We headed back to the villa a little sad that it was our last evening. The kids had a last swim before we headed indoors to pack and do online check-in.
We watched Jeff Dunham's new Christmas special before heading to bed.
