08:45 AM Good Morning<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Good morning! The itinerary for the day was really packed but we could only start the day after getting a wallet from Bicester Village. We had some time for breakfast before the mall open at 10 AM. We drove around the area looking for breakfast but most restaurants were still closed since it was too early. We couldn’t wait so we went back to Brewers Fayre.<\/p>\n

Eat all we can! Sadly, the spread isn’t that great… After breakfast, we drove over to Bicester Village to grab the wallet.<\/p>\n

I had to use the public toilet here before we hit the roads again to our next destination. The toilet were built in those containers at one end of the carpark. Surprisingly, the toilets here are extremely clean and dry. There is even warm tap water provided, which is seldom found in public toilets. It was nice to wash my hands in warm water on a cold day :).<\/p>\n
