Bus Adventure

The goal for today was to do a little baby shopping.  There is a large baby store, Babyland, out by IKEA so we headed back out to David’s favorite place.  Although we have been several times, we still don’t really understand the bus system.  Unfortunately for us, we picked the right bus…wrong direction.  Forty-five minutes later we found the end of the line.  We found a nice mall and since it was lunch time, we grabbed a quick hamburger lunch.  Ellie had a hotdog and we found the first onion rings we have had.  They were pretty good.  After we had lunch, we caught the bus back to our starting point and then on to IKEA. 
Once we had wandered over to Babyland, we were in for another shock: prices.  Our main goal was to look at double strollers.  The base strollers started at $1000 (US) dollars and went up from there. The other problem is that none of the double strollers will fit into our elevator.  Other prices we noticed included a basic bouncy seat for $100 and a small swing starting at $200.  After a quick wandering through IKEA to pick up a spatula and few other odds and ends, we decided to try and walk back to the train station.  Just a few missteps later we found the path.  It is a quick 15 minute walk from the IKEA entrance to the station.  It was so much easier than trying to find the right bus and squeeze on.
