On saturday the 15th of march, I decided to go to the outlet mall, which is near Williamsburg, Iowa. It's about 2 hours from Des Moines. Drive east.
I got way more clothes then expected. About 11 shirts, 6 pairs of pants, 3 shorts and new shoes. An outlet mall is a chain of stores -- like clothes stores basically. My favorite stores were Reebok, Nike, Under Armour, Gap, Old Navy and that's all. I liked the last store that we went to because it was a caramel apple store! I picked out a toffee caramel apple, but I never got to eat it. We forgot it at Grandma's house.
If you're going to the outlet mall, expect a lot of clothes and looking for clothes for your baby sister. It will be a little boring at times, especially looking for your mom's clothes, but when you get to look for your own clothes it's more fun.
We shopped for about 3 hours. Then we went across the street to the Landmark Restaurant.
We forgot to take a photo of the restaurant, but we found this on the computer. There's no green grass in Iowa yet.
After all that shopping, you could guess that we were all pretty hungry.
To start it off I got spicy chicken soup, boy that stuff was spicy.
The soups were all homemade. My grandma got a soup with cabbage and sausage in it. She said it was good.
I ate almost all of my bacon cheese burger but almost none of my fries [as usual].
I was full.
They have homemade pies for dessert. I sort of wanted one but I was too full.
If you're on the road, on Interstate 80, you should go to the Landmark Restaurant. And you should go to the outlet mall if you're running out of clean clothes or if your clothes don't fit you.
