A relaxing day with nothing that really needed to be done. It's warm and sunny, a bit of a preview for home from all reports where it's been high 20's lately :-)
We went to a shopping centre in the centre of town and organised replacement prescription sunglasses for Pete. Not the Oakley ones he wanted cos they couldn't guarantee them being done before we leave but he got some Ray Bans organised, they should be ready by Fri.
We managed to buy a duffle style bag to take home the esky, we will reuse the esky each year we come over. Found some digital luggage scales which are much better than the ones that were stolen.
We checked out a lot of other stores without buying anything.
We went to the nearest Apple Store, it turned out to be in a very flash shopping centre, not our usual sort of place lol Pete wanted to get the latest iPhone, it's much cheaper here than at home. To our surprise we found the store, parked and went there only to find they wouldn't sell us a phone! Very bizarre but they'd only sell to us if we bought a local phone plan, who knew there were phone stores that refused to sell you a phone? In Aus we can buy a phone so no idea why they won't do it here but it was annoying.
We checked out the nearest Walmart, the same one as last year and first thing this year but still couldn't find the couple of wardrobe things we were hoping to buy :-(
Grabbed a couple of basic grocery things to see us through and headed back to the hotel for the night.
