Where's Waldo?

Last night Peter and I participated in a live action Where's Waldo game down at Fashion Valley Mall. We showed up 30 minutes before the rest of the people and were told to go shopping and groups would come and find us, take our picture and then get our signature. There was a Waldo who had the striped shirt and hat. You got more points the faster you found Waldo. There was a cowboy, business people (Greg and Ellen), a rastafarian (Guy that looked like he was from Jamaica), a Chief's Fan, a girl in a zebra striped shirt, and we wore nearly matching hawaiian shirts and khaki pants, we were tourists. It was quite a fun game. I think nearly every group if not every group found us. One group found us inside of a toy store, two groups found us inside SEES candy, two groups found us at the food court, one group found us as we were going down an escalator, one group were sitting on benches and we walked right in front of them and a couple others spotted us as we were walking the mall. It was hilarious, people would yell tourists and then come running to get a picture with us. We got several funny looks from other people shopping at the mall. The groups after they found us they would see us again later on and shout and wave. It was quite a fun night! This was a regional singles ward activity that we were asked to participate in and boy we had so much fun we would totally do it again.

Afterwards we met up with Chris and Mary and headed over to the Cheesecake Factory. I got lemon raspberry cream cheese cake and it was delicious! I was the only one to eat all of mine. Peter got a super rich chocolate mousse, Mary got a peanut butter kind and Chris got dulce de leche. We sampled each others, I liked mine best but Chris' was a close second. Peter's and Mary's were really rich, a wee bit too rich for me.

I saw your brother-in-law and Mary, but never ran into you guys. Cheri and I went to go to the activity but we went window shopping instead. If I would have known you guys would have been there, we would have played! I bet you did great! Are you enjoying your day off today?

yay what a cool activity!! me and greg weren't quite so easy to find because we're mean and would deliberately hide (snick snick!) but i totally agree, we would do it again in a heart beat!
hope you're enjoying the peanut brittle, at that size it should last you about ten years!
