Trip to IKEA (1/1/09)


Seeing Fuji on the way there
We started out expecting this trip to take us
about 1.5hrs (even though it is only about 30mi away)
it ended up taking us 3, that's THREE hours to drive
30 miles to go SHOPPING! 3 of the 4 of us were not
very happy.....so lots of pics were taken to try to entertain
themselves.
Apartments on the mountain side
The ferris wheel at the water parkThe happy travelers
Paying the toll
the signal man
Toll booth worker



We were laughing at how confusing these signs were








Seeing this restaurant cracked us up








This says Toy R Us
More traffic signs :~)


Apartments

These are all apartments

Whoa...really glad I'm not you...10 miles an hour. Is that a record? :)
Aunt J. you must have been the happy one since you were getting to go to IKEA.
I guess when you live on an island you have to cram a lot of stuff into a small amount of space. I am however, getting claustrophobic looking at those pictures. :)

Originally I was happy about going, but after the 3hr. drive and being the only female, the fun kind of last its umph! LOL Uncle T. and I have been walking daily and we are constantly amazed at what they are able to SQUEEZE in EVERYWHERE, no spot goes unused! Mostly amazing, but definitely sometimes claustrophobic.
