a day in raleigh, north carolina..

we got into raleigh, NC around dinnertime last night..we were met by neil and summer...they are soooo cute!! :)




after we got all settled into our hotel room, took a quick trip to target and then watched a movie, we decided we needed our beauty sleep for our big day of being shoppers and tourists round about raleigh.. :)

this morning we ate breakfast at our hotel, the hampton inns and suites, and then summer came and picked us up to take us to the car they rented for us (super sweet, hey!?). once we set up gretta the garmin, we were off to the streets at southpoint, an ULTRA cool shopping mall, that is half indoor and half out.

after hitting up shops like hollister (my fave, cuz i AM a cali gurl at heart!), urban outfitters, j crew, sephora and anthropologie to name a few that we patronized for almost 4 hours, we went downtown raleigh. we happened upon a great camera shop that they knew within the first 5 seconds of us talking that we were from canada (is it THAT obvious?!) that was really cool and they cleaned our sensors...for FREE! :) :) happy place!!

gretta then took us to some ULTRA cool spots we scouted out on google for shooting on saturday.. W.O.W!!!!!!!! we found some coooooooooool old homes that are now historic spots... so amazing. we also found this really cute boutique that summer recommended us go to.. :) i found a little something there for miss rosie.. :)

we ended the day with eating some freakin' awesome mexican food at dos taquitos, a way cool mexi joint! what a great day!!

there were toooooooooo many laughs, a lot of walking and some mighty fine shopping. :)

currently we are listening to the canucks game online...can you imagine they don't have tsn that broadcasts the canucks game?!!? hehehe..
