Today we went back to the Premium Shopping Outlet, to give Nikki a chance to spend her birthday money. We got up, had some breakfast, did some surfing on the net then made our way to the I-Trolley.
We spent a few hours looking round the shops. Nikki bought herself a French Connection t-shirt for $18, and almost got some wicked Adidas trainers but decided she'd look around first.
When we'd finished shopping, we walked over to Publix (a huge supermarket) and bought ourselves some 'budget supplies': sandwich stuff etc... and some milkshakes! Then we caught the I-Trolley back to our hotel.
We wanted to spend the afternoon in Wet 'n Wild but, as we were walking to the hotel, it started to get quite windy and we wondered if one of the predicted thunder storms was on it's way. We thought it would be better to stay by our pool instead.
No sooner had we sat down and had some lunch, and then lay on the sun-loungers, the sun started shining, so Nikki fell asleep and I had a swim. When Nikki woke up, she said she wanted to have a swim as well, but couldn't be bothered to go and put her bikini on. So, like in infant's school, she got in, in her pants and vest!
Tonight, we got ready and went to City Walk at Universal Studios. It's this massive area full of bars, restaurants and a cinema. We wanted to watch a film, so got tickets for one called Disturbia, got ourselves a large coke and large popcorn (which was covered in butter), and settled in to watch a nice film.
WRONG! We absolutely s!%t ourselves - the film was brilliant, but very scary (anyone who hasn't seen it, go to the cinema and watch it).
Afterwards we had a look around some more and were too scared to take the 10 minute walk home, and so got a taxi instead.
Scaredy cats!

I came home from work this evening to John having a fit because I don't check my email enough - what its got to do with him I don't know! Anyway, I saw your blog address you sent me - I know you sent it to work too, but hey, incase you don't remember, you have to actually do work when you are in work!, so decided I would have a look - that was over an hour ago, and after reading all about your trip and more importantly the food, I now have John even more annoyed as I have not made any tea - I have quicky put some soup on the go and a baguette in the oven, what a provider I am! Mia must have recognised your pictures as she keeps on walking over the lap top whilst I am trying to read - or maybe she wants feeding too!
Well it sounds like you two are having a fab time. Ben you will have to keep Nikki away from the estate agents - this is only your first stop and she is looking already. Sorry I forgot your Birthday Nik - but hey you are travelling to world! Glad you had a nice meal, if no one else. Keep the updates comming - they are very funny. Keep having fun, and I will update you again soon. Oh Yeah Nik, John has his little boy - Thomas James last Thursday. I will let you know the details of the web site for you to see Sians wedding photos soon. Love Veniesa
