Running the Gauntlet

That weird green pastry was some kind of cake with jam and whipped cream covered in sugary icing. Whoo!! Very sweet. And weird. Only something that IKEA would do.

Here we are "running the gauntlet" as dad says. It's the part where you go downstairs where it's hot. Top that off with being stuffed full of food and groggy, it's where you find out what you're really made of. Do you have the stamina to shop with the best of them?

Here's the mattress I got. The wind was blowing hard, but neither of us noticed that the mattress had blown away while we were loading up other stuff! We looked around and said "Where'd it go?!" Found it next to the fence. It was like a giant sail!
