Day 7 - Shopping

In San Jose, the Bay area is very well known for its shopping. Now, I am not a big shopper, but Christmas is upon us and it wouldn't hurt for me to look around for a few things. In fact, I know that I needed a couple of pairs of jeans, so it was a good chance for me to pick up a couple of pairs.

We went to the Great Mall. This mall is huge, however, it is only one-storey tall. I'm not sure why they used up all of the land to build the mall so flat, instead of parking, but nonetheless, it might give you an idea of what this mall looked like.

Ellin needed a few things, and I wanted to look around. The first thing that I noticed was that in the food court, you were allowed to try free samples. By the time I walked around the food court, I almost ate enough to not want to eat anymore. The food was pretty good too. The second thing that I noticed was that Mall Cops actually have those stupid segways that you see in movies like Paul Blart: Mall Cop. I thought that this was a joke in that movie, but I guess its real.

Well, shopping isn't really all that interesting topic for me to talk about, but I did buy some jeans at the Levi's outlet store. These were the only things that I bought. I'm sure you girls would have been jealous as I know there were a lot of girly stores around that I know are popular. They were the outlet versions too, so you probably would get a good deal.
