Glad you had a nice day at sea world sounds like they are getting their act back together went a few years ago and it seemed depressing compared to what it used to be.
We do fancy visiting discovery cove and I know you get 'free entry to sea world so maybe worth a return visit. Love a walmart haul could spend a day in their looking a stuff I know I can't get home. |

I love Seaworld, especially at Christmas when they have all the lights and Christmas shows.

We were just saying the same thing about SeaWorld yesterday. We used to love it then when we came a few years ago we didn’t enjoy it as much, it seemed tired and the atmosphere was off.
The last couple of days have been great, to be fair we’ve not been in the middle of a busy afternoon but the atmosphere feels different, staff are nice and they’ve definitely upped their game with the food booths and electric ocean. Discovery cove is such a lovely day even without the dolphin swim. We bought the Black Friday deal so I didn’t think the cost was too bad.

That would be lovely to see. Maybe one day...
Electric ocean was great though well worth a visit, we are going to schedule another night there.

Day Four
A quiet day. We started off with Krispy Kreme donuts in the room and then headed to the pool when it opened at 8. Ds had a strawberry and cream frappacino which was still on offer at $1.75 and I had a no sugar vanilla latte which was also on offer at $2.50. Dh had juice from the room and we shared a piece of apple cake which was lovely and had some m&ms. We headed out to do some shopping and started off at the Nike Clearance store on idrive, this place was great for ds. We then headed for Hash House a go go. Ds and dh were delighted that we were sat in the bar as the football was on. Ds and I had a Diet Pepsi and dh had a strawberry lemonade. Ds had the kids cheese quesadillas served with fruit which he enjoyed. I had the Kokomo sandwich which was meatloaf with roasted tomatoes and cheese, it was really good as were the crispy fries. Ds helped me out. Dh had the fried chicken steak which was served with sausage gravy and mash. He enjoyed it but couldn’t finish it. The football was getting exciting and we knew we had not spent our $50 ( we had a Travelzoo voucher which cost $29 and gave you a $50 credit.) so Dh ordered a beer. We left a tip as our bill was technically zero. We really enjoyed our lunch, I’d look for the voucher offer again and happily go back. We waited a little bit as the heavens had opened and it was crazy outside. Ordered an uber to the outlets $6. We were ages shopping again and were pretty happy with our purchases although no Dooney and Bourkes in the outlet this time. Ds was shattered again by the time we got back to the room and did not want to venture anywhere. We decided to just stay in the hotel and went to the poolside bar. Nobody was overly hungry so we ordered nachos and calamari to share. Ds had a sprite, Dh an angry orchard and I had a moitjo. It did the job and was all quite nice. Edited at 03:51 AM. |

Loving your report as always! Sounds like you’re having a wonderful time. Thanks for taking the time to share the fun. I’m almost tempted to try and write up our little trip but I’ve never managed to finish a report yet! Could I just pack you in my suitcase so I have some memories to look back on.

Cake for breakfast and M&M's, you must be on holiday
I'm surprised how reasonable the uber fares are, is that before tip? |

Enjoyed catching up with your report! Three recommendations from me, Cracker Barrel for breakfast.. their pancakes are amazing, it’s great value for money and the shop in the entrance is like an Aladdin’s cave of amazing things. Sweet tomatoes for lunch.. it’s fresh, buffet style and really good value for money and the finally Manny’s for tea - it rivals the likes of Longhorns for us, we love it!
Enjoy the rest of your trip! |
