Day 7:  Trip to the Harbour Town outlet centre. On the way there, we stopped by an apple orchard to catch some of the nicest looking apple trees around.

Many of the fruit dropped off the tree. Maybe they are not so good in the first place, that’s why. This ensures we get the good and freshest one still hanging on the tree.
