With a busy day planned for tomorrow, a tiresome day yesterday and tickets booked for a dinner show tonight, we decided to keep it slow today and take a trip up and down International Drive.

Firstly, we had breakfast at Dunkin’ Donuts where I had a 100% fresh orange juice with my vege-egg sandwich, Debora claimed this was probably the only thing we’d had so far that didn’t contain anything artificial. We then went to the CSI Experience where we put on our detective hats and solved a crime. This was good fun but there are three cases and if you can’t do them all in one day, you have to pay full price for each.

We then stopped by Wonderworks, standing out by looking like the building is upside down. Neither of us knew exactly what this was so we were disappointed to learn upon arrival it was a rope course. We decided to skip it and headed back up to Ripley’s Believe It Or Not museum. Lots of strange artifacts inside and it ends with a disco tunnel that will make you lose your bearings – just thinking about it now makes me feel woozy.

Stopping for some lunch at the Uno bar and grill, what I thought would be a light snack of vegetables and pasta turned out to be a mammoth task as it was practically a whole bag of pasta in this bowl. We walked off our lunch on the way back to the hotel where we dusted down and dressed for a dinner show at Sleuths.

This meal was pre-booked as we do like a mystery and we arrived in ample time and so tried to have a drink in the bar. Sadly, we didn’t bring Debora’s ID with her so she was refused service on an alcoholic beverage. We were then ushered into the theater where a stage show takes place, ending in a murder. Over dinner it is up to your table to figure out who did it. We had quite a good table, everyone was pleasant although they all nominated me to be the talker and ask the questions. I’d already been picked on several times by the cast – it didn’t help I was sitting front row center I guess.

When the show was over, both Debora and I had correctly identified the murderer and the suspect so got to pick out a lucky chip from a pot to claim a prize. I got a white chip and a little tin badge, Debora got the red chip, the grand prize, a magnifying glass!

It was a fun night and I’d recommend this if you’re after some dinner theater. We’ve now been here a week and there is still so much to do! I’m just glad there’s a bank holiday waiting for us when we get back, we’ll need a lot of time to recover!
