Suburbia... It's like heaven!


Yesterday after Carsten woke up from his nap we decided to spend the rest of the day out. Since I am home all week with Carsten, I don't like spending much time at the house on the weekend... I like to go, go, go! I thought that it would be nice to drive down to The Woodlands and stroll around the Waterway. We had such a nice time. They have built this area across from the Mall (right by the Pavillion) called Market Square. There are lots of shops and restaurants and even a really nice HEB (comparable to a Central Market). They have a little courtyard where yesterday they had some kids from a dance studio performing. They have tried to make it look like an Old Main Street. After toodling around there for a while, we walked to the Marriott and were going to ride the Water Taxi over to the mall for fun, but we were told it would be anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour before the taxi came by again. So, we decided to walk down the waterway to the mall, which was even better. It's a nice walk and Carsten really enjoyed sharing his Cheerios with the ducks, turtles, and fish. Once we got to the end of the waterway, we went and had dinner at the Cheesecake factory before walking back to our car. The weather was a little warm, but bearable and all the walking really did us some good! It was a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

Sounds fun! We've been wanting to check out the new market place. I had heard they were trying to make it like the Riverwalk in San Antonio.
