The Landing



We loaded up the bus and headed for "The Landing" --95 acres of shopping with over 100 specialty stores and restaurants. 2 1/2 hours hardly seems time to do it justice. We walked the length of the stores (maybe 6-7 blocks long) and browsed at Bass Pro Shop. Nick was disappointed that it was the smallest BPS he had seen. But we were able to spend 30 minutes looking. We had barbecue lunch (okay- not great) at Famous Dave's and looked some more. Found the Rocky Mountain Chocolate factory and each had a dark choc. almond cluster. (You do realize that dark chocolate is GOOD for you!) Then we happened by The Big Popper for some specialty popcorn. We'll probably save it for the trip back. Went into Brookstone and found a gift we were hoping to buy while here.

Met the bus and are back in the room "kicking back" for a couple of hours. Tonite is a Christmas Spectacular Show (no one here seems to care that Thanksgiving is still more than a week away) , but first we eat at the Fall Creek Steak and Catfish House. Their motto is "all the rolls you can catch and eat". Okay, we'll see.............Should be another late night-----talk to you in the morning.
