IKEA!

This Weekly Wednesday was spent at Portland's newest BIG box store - IKEA!

We wanted to avoid the first-thing-in-the-morning rush, so we hopped on MAX about 1:30 p.m. and rode from Sunset TC to the Red Robin near Lloyd Center for some lunch. Then it was back on the train for a smooth ride to the Swedish wonderland.

We spent hours looking through the showrooms, drooling and dreaming of fancy, coordinated houses. A small snack at the restaurant kept us fueled for the shopping marathon. We each ended up with some good bargains - pillows, picture frames and kitchen gadgets. Linus even got a new pop-up cat house to play in.

Traffic and crowds were not as bad as we anticipated. I think people were scared to head out on the first day. I'm glad we did! :)


What should we do next week??
