Florida June 30

We knew it was supposed to be 60% chance of thundershowers today but we still wanted to go to Universal Studios and City Walk. It was still hot and muggy so we put on our shorts and tank tops and left for the 15 minute drive. It wasn't long after we were there that the ugly black clouds that had appeared opened up and started dumping on us. Oh my gosh, you would not believe the amount of rain that we got here today. It went on all day long. After coming out of the ride "twister" where we were to experience the rain and high winds like being in a tornado we saw what the real weather was like and it was definitely wetter outside. We decided to buy the classic poncho that all the other tourist were running around in so we could keep on going. Since it was about lunch time and it was still raining so hard there were puddles everywhere we decided to go to Margaritaville for a break and have some lunch. After lunch we went back to Universal to see how they did the make-up in horror movies. That was funny and gory all at the same time. We left Universal about 2:00 and we were both so tired we came back to the condo to take a quick power nap and clean up a little. We then went to a place called Wonder Works, where the house is upside down and has a bunch of imaginary exhibits inside. It was so crowded that we couldn't hardly get close to any of them, we left being disappointed in it. We found some cute shops close by to walk to. One of the little restaurants there was an old time place that served Shakes and Malts. We thought that would be the perfect thing for the rainy day blues. They were really good!! It was starting to get late but we weren't really ready to come back to the room since we had the nap earlier. We found a place called "Old Town" that had a bunch of little cute shops. In the parking lot of this place they had a couple of really scary rides. The one was like bungee jumping but they catapult you into the sky by some kind of elastic rope after being strapped to your seat. It went so high in the sky you looked like a dot up there. The other ride is where you are raised way the hell up there by some kind of rope and you drop and swing across the entire parking lot. We are hoping for better weather tomorrow for our last full day before going home.
