A Little Shopping

Saturday December 20

Jayne and I left to get a taxi to the mall so she could go on the internet. We didn’t see any taxis but we waited for one anyhow. Finally one came and he said it would be $5 to go to the mall! I said that was too much, then he came down to $4. The reason for the high price was that there was much traffic. Though I know that would be traffic as many people would be shopping for Christmas we thought that was way too high.

Since the price was too high we decided to go home. Just about when we got home a taxi came by. I asked $2.50 to go to the mall, (which is the regular price) he agreed. There was traffic to the mall and it took longer but since we took another way, which I knew of, it didn’t take too much longer.

When we got to the restaurant I found out I couldn’t connect to the internet. I asked the waitress if the password was changed. She told us it was. However, I don’t know how to change the password that she gave me. I didn’t see a manager there to help me. If he was in the kitchen he would have been too busy to do it for me – assuming he knows how to do it.

So, it turned out to be a waste of time. After we got something to eat we checked out the internet area in the mall. They were full with people, so we couldn’t go on their internet either.

Then we went to the book store that sells some books in English. I saw one book by Donald Trump (American real estate tycoon). Both of us are interested in books written by Trump. Jayne asked if I would like it for a Christmas gift and I said yes. So she bought it. (The price of the book with the discount that she got was $25.) I look forward to reading it.

Then we went to a good coffee shop that is next to the bookstore. From there we went home.
