Heavenly Village

I went down to town today after two days of staying in. I wasn't sure what I would do; I just figured I would walk around.

I ended up in the Heavenly Village shopping center. That strip mall wasn't there a few years ago. I remember coming to that strip mall a long time ago with Jon to buy a swimsuit and to browse at antiques in a pawn shop. There were only a few shops then; it was mostly an empty lot. Now, there are a lot more stores in it. The swimsuit store is gone; there is a different clothing store there now. I didn't even think to check if the pawn shop was still there.

Anyway, I started browsing at a store for beads and checked out the prices. The unfinished strands of pearls, similar to the ones I bought in the Philippines, cost $15. I found other pretty beads and trinkets but I didn't buy any. I found two art galleries and browsed the artwork. Then I found a store called "Artifacts" that had a lot of interesting stuff in it from different parts of the world. I got to a Jamba Juice and had a Mango-a-go-go with Matsa Green Tea Boost, which is their new thing. Then I headed back. I was bored.

Well, I'm going to bed. Tomorrow is a long day.
