Day 4: Typhoon Lagoon

Well we manage to steal a sort of lie in today as were off to Typhoon Lagoon Disney Water Park. Woke up around 9.30ish and decided to go to IHOP for brekko before the shuttle, IHOp was packed so we went up the road to the Western Sizzler for another all you eat job.

Around 11.30 ish we caught a shuttle to Epcot then from Epcot caught a Disney shuttle to one of thir posh resorts where we weaited for a shuttle to Typhoon Lagoon (were full of bright ideas catching these shuttles and saving money!), the weather wasnt too great today as it started to really tip it dont on our way htre and we wondered have we made the right decision today.

Around 1ish we arrived the the park and got our lockers, by now it had brightened up and we got some beds and then decided to hit the water and the "BIG" wave, it brought back a lot of memories here as i came here in 91 with my mum , dad and suz. I always remeber the great "whooosh" followed by all the screams when the monster wave would be launched.

After the wave pool we decided to do some slides, a few tube slides and 3 body slides. jayne just couldnt wait to get on the lazy river tho and we headed straight for that as soon as she'd had enough of all the "water up yer nose slides", we took the river all the way round, about half way tho i jumped off and wanted to do the death slides, i went on them twice. the real slides to go on tho were the new ones called the "crush n gusher" apparently its the worlds only uphill water slide. I made my way over there and left Jayne on the river, it was a two man raft and the ride is powered by water jets pushing you all the way round the ride, it was that great that after 1 go on my own i had to go and get Jayne off the lazy river and get her to go on this with me, after waiting about 20 mins for her to float round i dragged her on ! she loved it too and went a lot faster with 2 people on it, on the way out tho after our last ride jayne grazed her knee on the bottom of the pool, poor muffin now she has a boo boo.

Around 5ish we had a sit down and relaxed on the sunbeds as the sun was out in full force, my camera was still in bad shape and still had condensation, gutted !

Around 6 the park closed and we decoded to get a cab back to the hotel, we then thought to go shopping and get all our goodies from the Nike outlet as this was our last chance really as our last 3 days were very busy.

We both spent around $80 each on trainers, tshirts, and pants, bargains!! For dinner went to a chinese buffet up the road, we were very dubious but it ended up being one of the best mneakls we'd had all holiday, a great all you eater, with huge ribs and even puddin.

Made our way back to the hotel via lots of gift shops pricing up our disney souvenirs, an early night tonight after probably our most relaxing day since we got here, we neeeded it though to rest our poor feet.
