So last night Glenn and I made a deal that we would be out the door earlier today, ther just isn't enough time in the day when your day isn't starting till 10/11! Then we discover that some of the shops we wanted to visit aren't open on a Sunday and the others open at 10! Damn, still we were up by 7:30, kai struggled this morning, and we were out the door by 9am and headed for walmart! There were a Copley f grocery items we needed including medicine, my baby girl has a nasty nasty cough :( not very surprising though when in Vegas and here u are outside in the stinking heat and then walk inside to the freezing cold!!!! And when you're consistently all day in and out in and out, someone was bound to get sick, poor lexi. Anyway back to walmart, OMG that place is amazing!!!! Imagine kmart and Coles as one big shop and there u have Walmart! We scanned the grocery section first, a case of corona's $23, bud lite $12, 6 pack of bitch pops $12!!!!!! 500ml bottle of Gatorade, u ready for this one?.......78c, ooh u bet ya baby, thinking of sending a container ship of the stuff home!!!!! For u non Gatorade drinkers we pay around $3.50. It's coming up to Halloween so u can imagine the stuff in the stores, if only I knew what fancy dress party's I had coming up , there are some cool costumes!!!!! So we made a few purchases, got lexi some medicine, they are little sachets of orange flavored dissolvable crystals, how cool is that!!!! The best part, it actually stops her coughing, who knew there was actually a medicine out there that did that??? ;)
Well the outlets open at 10 so come on gang let's get a move on!! These ones were identical to Vegas, only a little larger (what a shame) so we knew which shops to visit! 5 hours later, 4 tired kids and numerous bags, we head home! We mostly bought shoes, we have discovered kai has a show fetish, so far he has bought 4 pairs and it would of been more only I said no! However we still have 2 weeks left so anything is possible I guess! Glenn left with quite a few parcels too, I think lexi was the only one that missed out today, she's not much of a shopper........YET! Now believe it or not but the highlight of our day today was walking back to our car, yep had me shaking in my boots and my heart beating harder than pharlaps (back In The day).We could hear a car alarm going off, so instinctively u look over to check out which car etc, there is this guy with is backside hanging out the car, he was reaching into the backseat, just as Glenn says "is that even his car?" he backs out with numerous bags in his hands them proceeds to shove them through the window of the car next to him "ummm nope I don't think so!" in he goes again for a second grab, "holy s*#t, he's robbing that car!!!! Just keep walking kids don't look at him!!!" mind you there where other people around, cars driving past etc, so brazen, but he never looked up and certainly wasn't rushing! Please tell me u hid all our parcels Glenn!!!! We had done a parcel dump too, but thankfully our car wasn't as swish as the one he was breaking in to. It's obviously a regular occurrence at the outlet as the other side of the carpark has a security podium type thing with 2 security guards keeping watch over the cars, hmmmm so tell me why our side didn't have one????? I feel so bad for the people who owned that car, man he grabbed some bags!!!! But like Glenn said, what could we do? If we said anything he'd probably pull a hand gun on us (or perhaps we watch too much telly?)
So that brings us to the present, I am sitting by the pool blogging, the kids are having a ball on the slippery dip that is in the pirate ship (check fb later for a pic, I can't post photos on here. Glenn and I are enjoying a bud lite and sweating in the humidity, sooooo humid we are just constantly sweating!!!! Time for another dip me thinks! No plans for tonight, and Universal Islands of Adventure tomorrow!!!! here we come Harry!! Hoping for an early night too, ha wishful thinking!!! Lol
Until next time
Cheers
