Orlando

On Thursday we took a road trip up to Orlando, just under 2 hours drive from St Petersburg. The interstate makes it so easy to get around, but no one does the speed limit. Most of the way we could do 70 mph, but even at that speed everyone was flying past! We arrived in Orlando just after lunch and spent the afternoon at the Orlando Premium Outlets. It was pretty big, not as big as New York though. If anyone can believe this, I actually didn't make many purchases.... saving myself for meeting up with Jacqui on Monday.

After shopping we checked into the hotel, had dinner at a local restaurant and then took a drive around Orlando - which is also the home of Walt Disney World. I never realised how huge Disney World is - there are actually 8 theme parks that make up the whole attraction - you would seriously need at least a couple of days to see it all. We drove around Downtown Disney and then headed back to the hotel where I happened to find a brand new episode of Grey's Anatomy on TV!
