Day 14 - Orlando


We docked back at Cape Canaveral at 5am on Sunday morning but we slept in until 7am. We had our last on-board up in the Windjammer Restaurant before disembarking for the final time at 9am.  Our transition through Customs went extremely well and quickly and within 20 minutes we were boarding our white stretch Hummer for our return to the car rental company and the Embassy Suites Hotel at Lake Buena Vista.

After checking in, Nick, Jonathan together with the Careys and Patmans went for an "extreme" airboat ride through the swamp lands and everglades for a few hours.  They saw heaps of wildlife including gators,snakes,eagles and bird life and they all said that it was a fantastic tour.  Allie had a return visit to the Florida Mall for some last minute bargain shopping.



In the late afternoon and evening we sat around in the bar of the hotel and had many of the free drinks and nibbles duing happy hour.  Needless to say, none of us felt like a large meal so we decided to stay at the Embassy for dinner rather than drive out to a restaurant.
