Day Two - Florida Mall


Harrison's plan for today was shopping. He'd seen some outfits for Bob ( his bear) on the Build-a-Bear website so we set off to find the nearest shop - the one in Florida Mall.  Once again the directions got us to the vicinity but it took us a while to work out how to get into the correct car park because it wasn't visible from the main highway. The inside of the mall reminded me very much of Bluewater but surprisingly for USA (where everything is bigger), this one was much smaller than back home.  First stop lunch in the food court:

Always smiling when there's pasta on the menu!

On our way to the bear shop we came across a shop full of Bernard's favourite sweets - M&Ms! He had great fun choosing from the huge array of colours:




Bob waited very patiently to get to his store and once in there he made sure that he didn't come out empty handed:


After a successful shopping trip we arrived home to find that there had been a power cut and our alarm was making irritating beeping noises! We called the management company who were able to instruct us over the phone how to reset it.  Unfortunately, shortly after the Verizon box started beeping too so we had to make another phone call.  We're still waiting to hear back........
