And... we're off again... this time to the upscale mall and Acacia for dinner!

So, you saw my post on facebook... before our day of Diva adventures began, Julie and I went walking about 7am-ish... We started together, then separated as she did her power walk and I did some geocaching...  I was successful in finding two caches... AND in finding a huge snake... scared me to death.  I've only seen little garden snakes... this guy was no garden snake... didn't deter from looking for the cache... well, maybe a little bit... but I was successful.
After cleaning up and having brekky, Julie and I headed to Christy's to pick up she and Liz.  We were excited and ready to go.  Went into a store call "Total Wine"... awesome spot for every kind of alcohol you can imagine.  Julie said they're opening one up in her town, Vancouver, WA... Almost a sensory overload at all the stuff they had.  Of course, connected to that store, was another mall... not even the one that was our destiniation... managed to make a dent in finding some things that one just couldn't live without. 
 

We got there... and, heck, it's been 4 hours since we ate... time for some delish gelato! The store, called Frost, was impeccable... the gelato yummy (although I missed out on it...they said it was great!).

 

LaEncanta Mall... beautiful...and expensive... no money left my wallet here.. which is good... cuz it has in the the other places!
 

 

We call these the bottle brush plant... and these little red circular string things, are the beginning of the burst of growth!
 

Like I said... so pretty... and the faint odor of jasmine in the air...
 

Happy Hour prices for our meals... and Blood Orange Margaritas!  The end of another great day... we have only one more full day left here...It's going way to fast!
