Orlando

Last night we decided to go to Charlies steakhouse.. a place Maria had visited on her last trip to Florida when she was 10 years old. So we got a taxi there to find out it was closed... gutting. I think it was because of Independence day, anyway in the taxi there we saw Ruby Tuesday so we decided we'd just walk there... we didn't realise how far it was as it was all on a long stretch of road. 2 miles later we arrive at Ruby Tuesdays to hear they've stopped serving.. anyway our new found chaufer Ken offered to give us a lift to TGI friday's for free.. what a babe. Our walk wasn't bad though, although it was raining we saw some amazing fireworks for Independence Day.

We ate at TGI's and it was insane... I dont understand why England TGI's cant taste the same!! Anyway Ken gave us a lift home and we booked him to take us to Discovery Cove the next day.

Discovery Cove was insane, we had a dolphin called Cindy and she was HUGE... I was so suprised, she was the dominant female of the pool and apparently quite a diva. Anyway it was an amazing experience. Then we spent the rest of the day snorkling, and swimming in the sting ray pool, we even got to feed to sting rays which was actually quite scary.

Tonight we are going to try Charlie's steakhouse, second time lucky!! Unfortunately we can no longer go to Busch Gardens tommorrow as it's an hour from where we are staying and a taxi will be too expensive and the shuttle bus wont get us back to the hotel until 7 and our flight to Las Vegas is at 6 but nevermind.. we get a day to chill out by the pool :)

We vbooked on hotwire for Las Vegas (that cheap lastminute thing i mentioned previosuly) and we are staying in the MGM Grand which is going to be insaneee!!... it's costing us $5 less per night than the first hostel.. this website is amazing!

Anyway all safe and sound and had an amazing day, feel at one with nature now haha xx
