Sunday then Monday

Sunday

Sunday we awoke to very nice skys and sun. Instead of hitting the beach we had a notion we would hit some stores and get some stuff we didn't feel like packing in our luggage, like a kid carrier\backpack and a booster seat for eating around the house\condo. We figured we could get them both at the local Walmart about 15 miles away. Well that was a mistake. Just like Seattle, everyone and their mother is out and about on a Sunday with no sports on TV.

WallyWorld had one of the main things we were looking for, also some pretty good water sports gear for kids and adults but not the kid carrier so we had to go up to Target where I proceeded to take a bag of cookies off the shelf, because I hadn't eaten yet, and walk around the store looking for the carrier, by the time I ran into Shawn the bag was pretty much gone and I didn't find the carrier thing. So we went deeper into the traffic to Burlington Coat Factory Outlet where we were blessed with a returned carrier that was in the box and about 40 bucks, but we had to return to target where we had left my sister, so back through the congestion, red light after red light to target. To make a long story longer we found her then had to go to another strip mall\plaza to look for a battery charger for her phone only to find the cingular store didn't have a charger because "the phone was too new. Ahh the south.
Also we realized we should have hit the beach and gone today while it was cloudy - duh.
