Change of plans

We've just spent 4 nights in Orlando shopping and rollercoasting. We didn't have anything booked for the next two nights to have some room for improvisation. Minna booked the next two nights at Ft Myers Beach. It's furher south as yesterday was really cold. We barely managed to stay at Universal for the Mardi Gras parade as it was maybe 13 degrees in the evening. The best rides: The Revenge of the Mummy and Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit, front row seats, with Motley Crue's Kickstart my heart playing on the speakers. And of course The Simpsons. Kia and Mona got to ride Rip Ride Rockit twice in a row as the video recording system didn't work the first time. They got to bypass the lines and got front row seats on the second ride (they had just denied front row as on the first go it was too scary...). And got the video. Unfortunately the video had just very little of the actual ride. More animation than real riding. Every time we had planned to play the minigolf here. Now we finally managed to do so at Pirate's Cove. . Very annoying when a couple of families with small kids didn't even count the score and were always coming behind us because it takes a bit longer when you actually follow the rules. They shouldn't even let small kids to come and play this serious sport.
