Saturday, September 3, 2011

We totally slept in today!! Actually…I totally slept in today, which means that Darren also got to sleep in! Funny how that works!
Quick breakfast trying to use up extra food and then off to the mall…I know that I am not cool enough to really buy anything here, but it seemed like checking out the mall would be a good thing to do! We spent only a couple of hours there and I didn’t really do any serious damage…2 t-shirts from Esprit (like I couldn’t get those at home!) and a soft-shell jacket that was 65$ off and was therefore not even 25$...which made it worthwhile, I figure!
We visited the Harpa, the big glass concert hall, because I really wanted to go see something if there was something happening tonight. Unfortunately, there was only a random-looking show, no orchestra or anything, so we opted out. Instead, we wandered around downtown and found this really awesome restaurant called the Laundromat Café. It had awesome food – we split a breakfast-like dish and were totally full…the best deal for the food yet! It was a very hippie, relaxed atmosphere as well, which was fun! It was a busy place!
More wandering led us to witness an impromptu rap-club concert in the central square. These three people set up their own speakers and randomly started to dance/sing(ish) in the square! It was kind of odd, to say the least, but cool in the fact that they have the freedom to do that without any apparent permits or anything! And, it made for good ice cream cone entertainment (although the ice cream was excellent regardless of entertainment!).
We did one last grocery run for Fanta Limon and Bugles (shows where our priorities are!) and headed back to the tent to pay for one last night and attempt to pack! Hopefully early to bed tonight before a full day of traveling tomorrow!
Back to reality soon….

Until the next holiday!
