A typical day
Last weekend we toured old mansions from the 1700's. In complete contrast, today we did what we would have done on just a regular typical day in.....America. We went to Costco and then went to a mall. Now I have to clarify, they don't have that many malls around here, but they do have a giant one that is fairly close to where we live. We all needed new trainers (tennis shoes), so we decided to go check it out. We had heard a lot about the Trafford Centre - this mall is amazing and includes a Legoland Discovery Centre and mini theme park, a movie theater, a lot of places to eat, tons of stores and the mall itself is very modern looking. We got our trainers, ate at Pizza Hut, the kids got cookies, ice cream and balloons and then we topped it off with a trip to Build-a-Bear. Gerbie picked a bunny that she named Crumpet and Bean picked a unicorn that she named Rapunzel. This seriously could have been a typical day back home.
