Well, it's several months late but I must finish this blog so that I can get these pictures archived and printed! Normal service with the website blog can then resume! The slight downside of being a little photography obsessed is the enormous amount of time it takes to sort through photos, there really are not enough hours in the day! 

Our Easter Day this year of course started with the obligatory sugar fest...

20150405-IMG_1695 We then headed off through the resort to catch the complimentary bus to Island's of Adventure again. Kitty and Henry chose to spend a second day in a row there... of all the parks it's definitely the best one for white-knuckle rides!  20150405-IMG_1702

Our apartment was on the second row up, immediately behind and to the right of the fountain (with any view we might have had obscured by that Willow Tree.. but never mind, we were hardly ever there!)

The rollercoaster in the background is 'The Hulk' - it was great fun! DSCF9709

Cooling down with some 'Dippin' Dots'!

We loved 'Toon Lagoon' - so colourful!

Never a truer word spoken!...

They really believe in getting you totally soaked at Universal... no half measure on the water rides. We came off here absolutely drenched from head to foot... thank goodness it was hot and sunny!  DSCF9742 DSCF9744 DSCF9745

A new attraction being developed... wonder what it will be?! Looked enormous!  DSCF9746 DSCF9747 DSCF9748 DSCF9750

...and back to the hotel resort to unwind in the pool! DSCN3188

...and then off out to a Steakhouse for an evening meal! We were served up the biggest steaks I've ever seen (and these were by no means the biggest on the menu!)

On the way back, Richard was in awe of the size of American parking spaces! Wish they designed them like this in the UK! (very bad iPhone photo but you get the idea!)

The hotel reception area had been decorated for the occasion! DSCF9799 DSCF9800

Another long but great day... very different from our usual Easter Sundays!
