June 9, 9th day
I woke up DETERMINED to get some Voo Doo Doughnuts. I had them in Portland years ago and LOVED them. I know some think they're overrated. To that I say, "SHUT UP AND LET ME EAT MY LARD!" LOL.
I mobile ordered them for pickup... .but, between the jam to get a boat to City Walk and then the mob of people ordering... took an hour roundtrip. I think I picked the WRONG time of day to do this. But, was happy to eat my two. Davy doesn't like doughnuts because he's WRONG. So, I had these babies to myself:
Then, we settled in and watched the first episode of Loki.
I then watched some more of the French Open... and before we knew it, it was lunch.
Went to Hard Rock. It was OK foodwise but I do love the decor.
We once again decide it was water ride time!!!! Pretty much same as yesterday. Dudley broke down for a bit. We got soaked. We laughed at folks who didn't want to get wet... and then... there was a boy throwing a FIT in line. He was about 10 but acting about 3. the adults with him kept trying to talk to us, "it's not child abuse really...." "he just likes attention from crying." I was ignoring them... but, Davy tried to calm the boy down. He really did want attention because as soon as Davy quit talking, he'd cry again to get him to talk to him again. Davy finally just gave up. I thought it was the boys parents in line but didn't really look at them. Davy said he didn't think so... maybe older cousins or something. Who knows? But, the line never seemed so long! The kid loved it after he rode of course. He was all smiles. Davy said, "so, you liked it after all." The kid said he did NOT. wow. lol
I made reservations for Mama Della's. We had eaten there before and I was a little disappointed. Thought I'd give it another chance. We get there... no reservations and a LONG wait. Turns out, I made the reservations for NEXT WEEK. What the heck? LOL. So, Sal's again! We probably liked it better than we would have Mama Della's.
Then, we headed back to Universal. I wanted another Gringotts ride. We stopped to get candy. Davy got Peppermint Toads. OMG. I loved them! My new favorite!
Davy rode the Hulk one last time as well. We then got back to the hotel... and, Davy wanted to try the pool. I was so tired but really wanted to too! I even did the slide (so fun!).
I started getting REALLY SLEEPY I headed up. Davy closed down the pool -- and then couldn't figure out how to get out. LOL. Someone had to help him get out of the gate. He thought it was pretty funny though. Had another great sleep....
Tomorrow.... we have a lovely morning, I do something I have never done at Universal and hadn't done in 18 months, then sadly leave and I make a HUGE mistake.
