Ok, I don’t know if they use those commercials all over the country or if we just get them because it is here, but when I talk about the Mall I usually sing the little jingle too (remember I also have a very weird love of jingles).
This weekend I had a visit from my college roommate and her family. That would be her, a husband, and 3 little boys. Wow!! The energy those little beings can put out!!! So what do you do with company from out of town when it is about 30 degrees and flurrying?? I take them to the Mall!
Underwater World was a hit…..
Yep, there were real sharks and everything. But touching the stingrays was probably the highlight.
Other hit stops included Lego Land and the amusement park.
I personally usually avoid the amusement park because it is noisy and chaotic (some would argue that the whole Mall is like that, but there is shopping in the rest of the noise & chaos!), but on Saturday I managed to spend at least 2 hours walking around and waiting in line for some of the smaller thrills the park has to offer.
This one managed to entertain the boys, but also managed to make my old roommate wish we had not eaten at Bubba Gump’s Shrimp Co which in turn meant our time in the Park was over. Whew!!! Finally off to do some shopping!
It was a fun weekend and I am so glad they came to visit. The boys assured me they would be back to see the Mall again because they were sure they did not get to see it all in the meazley 6 1/2 hours we were there!
