It was the independance day weekend so we had a long 3-day break which was pretty refreshing. Instead of heading up to San Diego which we initially planned, we decided to drop by Phoenix (Arizona) because there were only 3 days and a 6-hour road trip to SD just wasn't worth it.
So we ended up heading towards Phoenix for its amusement park which turned out to be pretty disappointing. It was made more for kids and the rides did not look attractive at all.
However, we still had a great time playing arcade games for about 2 hours. It was nostalgic to be playing these games at 20++ years old. (ahem, our age is a secret).
Subsequently we pressed on for lunch at the all famous American Steak House - Texas Roadhouse! The portions were huge naturally and we almost died eating! But that was good of course. I must recommend the Ribs in this place, it really melts in the mouth. Just above the standard of Tony Roma's in my opinion.
The next and most fulfilling destination of the trip was Factory Outlet Shoppings! The prices were ridiculous. Apart from the usual lower prices in the factory outlets, there were further discounts! Could you imagine discounts on discount is like.. CHEAP! Anyway, we all had great fun shopping like crazy. Walked for almost 4 hours plus. Made the 2 hour drive to Phoenix all so worth it at the end.
So that was the beginning of this 3-day weekend. And I believe more is to come tonight!
