We have five good reasons to drink!: Rainy weather

Rainy weather had us stuck indoors for several days. The vacation home is a bit boring but luckily J was able to get work done during those days. On a day that had sun with just a threat of afternoon rain we decided to go out and explore a little bit. While we were out we saw maybe 5000 mini golf places, we decided to join in on the native's and visitors seemingly favourite past time and play a round. It ended up being quite fun and we bought a future visit at a discount which we are yet to use so we have a rainy-ish day back up should we be stuck at home.

Soleil took it seriously for a little while :)

and she actually enjoyed it

Then she realised it was much easier if you just put the ball in the hole with your hand

Yep, that was much easier ;)

Some of us took it more seriously

The intensity!

Some of us used our golf clubs as guns

Some were blackmailed into having a photo taken ;)

and uh, some of us have anger management issues!! ;)

We had fun playing mini golf, we were all starving when we were done so we headed to a fancy schmancy McDonalds! Oxymoron you say? Tut tut, don't judge, it was fabulous dahling!

We fit in a visit to Universal Studios the next day, but I only took one photo :/

I'm not sure how that happened, it was a bit of a rainy day so I didn't feel like getting the camera out of the backpack much. We did a lot of things at the park this day, including MIB which Finn really loved, The Simpsons, E.T., Disaster, Revenge of the Mummy (family favourite), Shrek 4D and Twister. We spent the morning at Islands of Adventure and then ventured over to Universal Studios for lunch, we bought the food package on this day and struggled to find time to get our money's worth ;) We stayed until close though and had a really fun day, despite the rain.

The next day we finally got around to trying all of our Harry Potter Honeyduke's haul. My favourite's were the exploding bon bons (I can't wait to go back to HPW and buy more) and the lemon drops. The chocolate frog was cool because it looked authentic and also came with a wizard card. The kids seemed to enjoy the every flavour beans I didn't take my chances on those.
