Yay, we had a lie in! After a late-ish breakfast in the villa, Keith and I nipped to the local shopping park to Rack Room Shoes as he was still hoping to grab another pair of trainers. Nothing took his fancy so we returned to the villa to plan the rest of the day. We stopped on the way to fuel the car up.
Keith, Sarah and Stephen were keen to give Top Golf a try. They like to play at home and were interested to see if it was different at all. As it was at the top end of International Drive it meant we would be in the right location for our planned evening at SeaWorld.
Traffic, as always around here nowadays, was busy but we made it. This is a 3 tiered Top Golf but we ended up in the lower floor. The first difference us you pay for a time in your bay rather than per game. The next difference was the type of games you could choose to play, from the original to Mario or Angry Birds themed games. We decided on a 90 minute slot which gave them plenty of time to try a few different games. Drinks were served in the bays, we could have had food too but didn't. Had nice comfy outdoor chairs to sit on too. You pay your server at the end of your time for the amount of time you've played and any refreshments. We loved the experience here and might return if we have time. It also helped that Tuesday's are half price for the bay time!
We headed next to Applebee's (restaurant) for a late lunch. We order 2 starters a sampler and a loaded nachos plus some waffle fries (forgot to take photos). Stephen was starting to feel unwell and didn't really eat much. He had some paracetamol in the hopes it would alleviate his temperature changes and tiredness but in the end we decided to abandon our Seaworld plans and instead headed back to the villa.
The traffic was horrendous, a couple of accidents had caused large queues on a number of roads and it took us quite a while to get home. We did stop at a restaurant on the 192 for a toilet break for Stephen and Sarah and I decided to go into the tat gift shop next door for a look around.
Back home and we had a a fun hour or so playing pool against each other.
Stephen was now feeling a little better and wanted some food. Keith and Sarah decided they'd like something else too, so they ordered a chicken burger meal to share, and Stephen a burger meal from our local Applebee's and then Stephen and Sarah drove round to collect it.
After they'd eaten, Keith and I popped to Publix to stock up on milk etc.
Not the day we planned exactly, but still loads of fun, Top Golf certainly exceeded our expectations. Weather has been hot today, probably felt like the hottest day so far although still around 27 degrees same as the last couple of days.
We expect tomorrow's plan will change too niw, we will probably drop our return to Busch Gardensand swap for Seaworld. Not really a problem as we managed to do all the rides after dark last week.
Step count only 3000 ish today!
Loving the action shots of the boys 🥰 You need to get some more steps in!!!! Love to you all ❤️
