Today was a relaxing type of day. We woke up and went to the complimentary breakfast buffet downstairs. The make your own waffels were yummy. They had this Vanilla Chai tea which I jazzed up a bit, and now I have a new addiction. We then went to Mall of America to explore the first floor. We did a little shopping and then Cassie really wanted to do a ride. Nick went with her on the Fairly Odd Coaster. Think of a mouse type coaster that spins. Yuck. Tim and I just watched. Then I hit the scrapbook store one more time while Tim and the kids went to FYE, a music store. We were done about 2:00 and went back to the hotel. Tim wanted to get the car checked. Sometimes it was making a pretty nasty noise. The kids and I hung at the hotel watching TV, something we hadn't done for weeks. Tim came back from the mechanics and said we would have to live with noise till we got back to PA. They installed the catalyctic converter incorrectly again. What the ?!@#$. The mechanic said it would get us back to PA, but for him to do it, we'd have to wait for parts to be ordered. Tim felt better knowing it would be OK, we'd just have to put up with an occasional embarrassing noise. Tim and the kids went to the pool, I just relaxed. This evening the hotel had a complimentary mini buffet. Tuna sandwiches, a salad bar, and chips. I also made another Chai Latte. Back to the room to pack up for an early start for tomorrow.
