john and rel: Fashion Show Mall

The day begin with an awesome breakfast at the Sugar Factory.
As the name suggests, there were not too many ‘heart foundation tick’ meals at this place.

Whilst John went and sorted his credit cards, because John had forgotten to tell the ‘falcon’ that he would be spending up big in the USA, the girls launched their shopping frenzy.
Once John was ready to engage with the girls, it was then his challenge to track them down.
Knowing the name of the shopping centre was one thing, finding it was another.

This was one of many wrong ‘buildings’ that John encountered on his way. And each of this buildings has its own ‘city’ underneath them, where you could reman self-sufficient for days or weeks, assuming you had a large enough credit-limit.

Once John eventually discovered the right place, he realised the girls had raised the bar in terms of classy shopping centres.

To his surprise, John discovered there are many distractions at shopping centres.
Ellise was happy to help out with a massage for John

There was a fashion show to watch

And of course there were the helpful shop assistants Lisa and Maria who went out of their way to help John.

John did find the girls in the afternoon. They were refuelling in readiness for another assault.
Fortunately they did not feel the need to pay ridiculous amounts of money for oxygen at an oxygen bar.

Rel discovered the delights of Macy’s department store

I think Rel liked Macy’s...

Jen seemed to be a fan too

In fact, I think they everyone like Macy’s.

It was then time to book a show. Fortunately we had Whoopi on hand to guide us.

The girls had tough decisions to make… which show, what time, how much, what seats…

In the meantime, John looked after the shopping acquisitions, and somehow managed to keep himself occupied.

Then it was finally time to wander home. John had already hit the wall by this time and was all shopped out. It was not a pretty sight.

But on our one journey home we found the stairway to heaven
