We have to leave the villa by 10am our time so that the cleaners can sort the place before the next guests come in some time after 4pm.
We've then got a drive of around 90 minutes to Melbourne Airport for our flight which leaves at 1640. We're due to land At Doncaster Sheffield Airport at 0535 (UK time) on Monday.
Our flight number is TOM 565 and you can track our progress using this link - https://uk.flightaware.com/live/flight/TOM565
Thursday
Thursday was another pool morning followed by a trip to Haines City and lunch at Sonny's.
We enjoyed a walk around Animal Kingdom in the evening. We had a very short wait to get onto the Kilimanjaro Safari - no pics as we've done it several times before.
Many animals were out and about including giraffes, elephants, rhinos with their baby, lions, cheetahs, crocodiles, hyenas, flamingos, hippos, warthogs, wildebeest and others. Early evening seems to be a good time for this ride.
We
then went to see the gorillas who also had a tiny baby and then to the Maharaj
Jungle Trek. We were told that the tigers
weren't there - imagine they'd gone to see the fireworks at Magic
Kingdom 🤣.
Friday
A day at home. We had a lovely day chatting to some
neighbours we hadn't met before but who live in Newark and the husband is from
Watford! They are original buyers who bought their house here when it was a piece of grass in 2005.
Larry popped across in the afternoon and then we went to
Longhorn with Larry and Dottie. This was our last meal out on this trip and
it's been a joy to see James tucking into his meals every time we've gone out.
He's been so well behaved in the restaurants and several
over diners have commented on how good and cute he's been.
Another relaxing morning by the pool while Graeme did jobs around the house.
We had lunch locally at huey magoos.
James enjoyed all of them. We left just before the fireworks so got back to the parking lot on the monorail quite quickly.
