Day five

[Clarkkent]

Shopping day at the Florida Mall.

Slightly expensive taxi journeys there and back but no concerns they were ripping us off. (I had a beady eye kept on the meter).

Successful day shopping. Slightly perturbed that GAP had these items next to each other. Freddy Kruger anyone?

Hilarious moments laughing at the very short mall cop on his segway travelling slower than most people were walking but somehow he still wanted to wear a crash helmet.

Fun had while circling the food court for all the freebies. Had half my dinner before I'd actually paid for anything. Jeff happy to find someone who sold huge chunks of tofu.

Half of our shopping budget spent on new clothes, Yankee Candles and M&Ms.

Back to hotel for a half hour breather and off to the Contemporary for dinner at chef Mickey.

Today's silly head gear:

Not entirely sure what a nightgown that has a sticker which says "scratch and sniff" would actually entail....

Drinks at the bar before hand (hic!)

Brilliant food at Chef Mickey. Jeff, being a vegetarian, has put it at the top of the list for buffets with an excellent choice for veggies.
Almost literally mobbed by the characters as soon as we sat down:

Currently sat waiting for Wishes while the electrical light parade winds it merry way round the park.

Is this the reason I do not like shopping? I'm not getting properly inebriated beforehand??? Well then! That is my new game plan when shopping!

And you seriously had to photo shop the Freddie Kruger outfit!! No way were they selling that!!

[Clarkkent]

No word of a lie

Even worse they were charging $50 for the top!

Good gracious. Maybe it's a Halloween costume

[Britchick]

Oh Jeff! Striped shirt and checked trousers?!! :doh::shocked::biggrin:

Brit that is the new trend. We see that often, particularly on men. It's not unusual to have plaid shorts and a striped top, or plaid top and some other type of printed shorts, etc.

It's the new thing! :D

Another great day of photos. Looks like you're having loads of fun. Keep it coming.

I am fairly certain my Jon single-handedly started, perpetuated and facilitated this trend. He has a SERIOUS love affair with plaid.

[Johnie]

It may be a new thing but it's awful

Actually, our handsome Jons not with standing, I'm pretty certain it was the tourists from Japan that started it. :yes: :D

It seems like they have a serious love for plaid bottoms with striped tops (the men). The women are extremely creative with layers of short frilly skirts, ankle leggings, wild shoes and nearly anything goes "tops." Love to see their creations.

I at first thought the plaid and striped combos were a result of the "last day this is all I have left that is clean" syndrome, but see it so very often now (and equally as often NOT on tourists) that I've come to realize it's a "new thing" or trend, if you will.

To each their own. I remember leg warmers, you know? :lol:
