Outing

We had an almost perfect outing if not for the not so pleasant parking experience in the mall! Picked the kids up and off we went for lunch. As expected, the parking area was very congested as it was lunch time. I circled up to the 5th floor and finally found a lot. Well, I knew I would have a problem reversing it in at the 1st attempt as the car was not positioned at the optimum turning point. I tried again....and still I was out by 2 to 3 inches. Then the driver in the car behind wasnt at all helpful or forgiving. He gave me a horn and I got really agitated. I just drove off!

Then I found another one, right next to the exit. Again, the traffic was heavy and I just gave up until I saw a perfect lot for a nice straight head in! haha.

The kids had a good lunch, followed by some shopping and we headed for bowling thereafter.

The evening concluded with a nice swim in the pool before it started to pour. Poor Ethan only got to soak for 1 minute before he was greeted with a heavy downpour, as he joined in much later. Overall, the girls had a good time together, despite a minor bruise on N's knee when she tried to balance on the waveboard.

I promised myself I would do better at parking next time! I know I can, with more practice!

We are looking forward to another gathering! This time, we are going to bake with the kids and bring the bakes to a park for a picnic. How lovely!
