Forgot to say that I had grits for breakfast yesterday. A southern US dish of ground corn that basically looks like porridge. The lass serving recommended eating it with butter and salt, much better after that as basically no flavour to it, LOL. This morning I had biscuits and gravy. Biscuits are like scones and the gravy, well that is white with something in it. Googled it and it’s usually bits of sausage.
Headed out to a couple more local munzee gardens in Orlando before heading down to Disney Springs (it used to be called Downtown Disney) Managed to find my way into the Lime Garage (rather than the Orange Garage) and after having a snack in the car for lunch, headed down the escalators to the ground level. Wandered around for a bit, but it was quite hot and humid, and there seemed to be music coming from every open shop and in between, so it was quite noisy, not a huge crowd of people, but then it is mid-week.
Then carried on down the road a little way to Celebration (a Disney built suburb) where more munzees awaited me, LOL. From there I drove the 50+ miles to the hotel near Tampa.
My hotels have improved as I’ve gone along, lol, This one is so close to the munzee gardens at Lettuce Lake that I’ve been capping them from my room, lol. Very nicely, there was a complimentary dinner, so once I had hauled all my stuff up to the room, I went and had chicken & salad, cheese & biscuits and water! Then finished unpacking, showered, blog writing and now bed. Oh I managed to jam my thumb in the car door before I checked out this morning, it’s starting to get dark, sigh, and it’s sore!!!
I did get the check-in guy here laughing. He needed my postcode so I gave it to him and also said that I couldn’t use the pre-pay on the petrol bowsers as they didn’t like my postcode. He had never heard of petrol bowsers, they are gas stations here, so he said he thought I was talking gibberish, and I could come back after dinner and entertain them with my accent, LOL.
Muscovy ducks are native to Florida, but this brood of ducklings won’t last long standing in the middle of the road. Mum was sitting there watching them, and finally moved them off the road.
Oh I so wish I knew someone who can build this sort of thing out of Lego, LOL
