Day 2 - Shopping

I'm sitting in my favorite spot in the hotel room watching everyone try on their purchases from today.
It was a slow start to the morning after a wonderful nights sleep. We woke at about 9am and Nate and I went down to get our free (not really free because we have a resort fee) newspaper and coffee and donuts for breakfast ( healthy right!) then we headed for the shops.

Greg won today's shopping challenge...he saved the most money with his purchases...Bella was second only because she finally listened to what Dad's suggested and bought from the clearance items. Nate bought what was on his list and was very satisfied with his new items and I came last because as mum I put everyone first ( can you hear the violin ?)

We caught the SDX to the outlet mall south today...used the coupon to get the coupon book but most of the coupons we couldn't use because the deals in store were better than the coupons....oh well

We also bought a bright green suitcase...hopefully will see it very clearly on the luggage carousel at the airport.

Broadway Burger Bar was our restaurant choice for dinner tonight, I had the Chicken and Brie with caramelized onions...delicious, one thing I do notice is though, the waitresses are forever asking you if you want a refill...working for that measly tip we give them, as Aussies I'd prefer if they ignore us a bit so I don't feel I have to give them a tip, it's just so strange to us.

Early to bed...early to rise...but 1am is ridiculous, I think that big coffee I had for afternoon tea was a mistake.
