Rest day and More shopping
Wednesday 2nd May - A day of rest for the kids ( soft effort me thinks) but it gave me time to chase down a camera.
In the last minute packing, I could not for the life of me find the charger for the camera and its old school where you need to take the battery out of the camera and charge it on the charger. So up until this point we have been using the phones, now that we are in Orlando, I am using my phone for the GPS which means we havebeen missing a lot of pics cause the battery runs out real quick.
So I decided to get a camera. After a bit of shopping around, I decieded upon the Samsung WB150, It has built in WiFi so I can use my phone as a hot spot and upload them straigt away, so if we loose the camera we at least have the pics.
It also has a cool app for my Galaxy S II, so we can use the phone to control the camera and take the pictures...
It also has a really cool cartoon and sketch feature as well... Here is my first attempt of making one..
I got it on sale at Super Target. We also checked out suitcases as I have been filling up the bags quick and it's not looking good for the return of Nando's suitcases.

Universal Studios - day one
Tuesday 1st May.
Today was the first day that we started using our 14 day pass for Universal, as all the websites say to avoide parks like the plague on Friday - Monday.
The facads for the shops were awesome
There was an old school dinner with old school cars.
There was a dude with an awesome pet owl..
Who scared the hell out of Sian because wher we tried to take the first pic he turned around and looked straight at her.. She eventually wanted to go back and get her pic taken with it.
We found sponge bob and got a picture with him... even though he is the worst character in the world lol
While we were waiting in line we spied a hat shop with some cool hats that we thought we would try on.... I'm kicking myself for not getting the Pharaoh hat
Medusa
Jurassic park
We get into the terminator two show, and there are theatrics all out... this was the only picture as you arn't allowed to take any pictures...
we then went to the make up and special effects show, here is a picture of the set...
We stumbled across the kwik e mart
Apu
They had flaming Moe energy drinks...
And the donuts from the simpsons... ( I think they are really dunkin donuts)
I did a stint working at the kwiki mart....
and Nando as well...
We ran into Nelson
and the chief
Lunch time and we made a massive burger and everyone said I couldnt take a bite... and I did and it was awesome.
The coke machines have over 100 flavours to try....
Beetlejuice...
The paper in the dolorian....
The car from despicable me... It is a new ride they are opening later on this year
I dont remeber what we had for dinner or what else we did that day... Slack I know. It probably involved the pool and sleeping
Today was the first day that we started using our 14 day pass for Universal, as all the websites say to avoide parks like the plague on Friday - Monday.
So Tuesday we headed to Universal Studios. We got there for 9am open, paid our $14 parking for the day and were directed right to our spot. Our parking was Cat in the hat and Row 460. I'm glad I decided to take pictures of where we parked, because by the end of the day I really couldn't remember where we parked.
The Universal ball
