Made it back from Winter Haven in one piece. The Westin downtown was great as was staying at the hotel at the airport for morning flights. Had one unmemorable night at the Best Western Winter Haven. Nothing like a bunch of underage-looking kids partying in the hotel "lounge" until 2am Thursday night. Had lunch at Tanner's in Winter Haven which is fine, but apparently the only bar in town not located in a strip mall. Stopped at Gary's on the way back to Orlando. Good stuff. Oysters, buffalo shrimp, conch fritters, and little neck clams.
Spent two nights out in Orlando. Very clubby but a few normal bars thrown in. Watched a little rugby and soccer at the Irish bar. Spent a little time the next morning at the factory outlet. Nice Zegna stuff at half-off, but it's half-off of $250 for a shirt. About 90 min each way from downtown to the Indians stadium in Winter Haven. Had some mediocre sushi at Ichiban on S Orange in Orlando. Not that the fish was going to make anyone sick, rather it just didn't have much taste.
Time to start booking hotel and air for Germany. Got a flight from Stuttgart to Paris on HLX for $27.
