The Mall Has It All

To take advantage of something to do on such a miserable rainy day we took the whole fam to the Grand Traverse Mall. When I was a kid there was only one mall, the Cherryland Mall, which is still in town only existing as an open air mall called the Cherryland Center.

We parked by Macy's and headed straight to a structure that has been seen on this blog before:

THE GERM TREE

No, that is not me balancing a potato on the back of my head. Where is that can of spray on hair when you need it?

Yeah?
I'm On a Boat, shorty!

Dad I think they left....
...and they were off to the races

Goody goody gumballs!
Making sure to touch them all to build immunity.

Double Bubble...I heard Cheech Marin say that once

Onwards towards the Carousel, stopping to climb onto this John Deere

No you aren't seeing things. We're a big city baby, we got TWO gumball gourmet islands! Woot!


Coming at you on the Wheels of Steel, on the 1s and 2s, DJ TV

Out of the way hippies!~
Hey pretty lady, got room for two...
C;mon pretty pretty, how 'bout a smile

Out of my cab cracka!
A burp? A hiccup? An outburst? Your explanation will say more about you than this photo
On a serious note there were these older kids playing in this little wacky car area and one of them tried to hop into the ride Jack was in. My boy stiff armed the kid out of the train. I felt kinda bad but the older kid just shrugged his shoulders.

The merry-go-round!

I elected NOT to ride the ride
Neither did she.
I don't think Debbie expected to hold Jack for the whole ride. She didn't end up doing that, but it was close.
