Ikea Goodness!

Ryan and I decided that we need to get out more. Regardless of the fact that we have little money, and even less time, and are both tired from the work week, we wanted to make the most of our time here. So this week our big plan was to visit Ikea. It is located near the huge shopping centre we sometimes go to, and we decided that the train was a much faster method of travel. We bought tickets from Romford Station to Chaffard Hundred (which confused me, because last time we were there we could not buy tickets from Romford to Chaffard Hundred, but we can buy them going in the opposite direction? Weird.) When we got to Ikea (after navigating the station, the busy parking lot, and a major road) we were surprised to find that it wasn't all that busy. We spent the afternoon browsing, and we even found the kitchen of our dreams for our someday-house. After a quick bite in the Ikea cafe, we headed to the shopping centre. It was so crowded!! We didn't stay long!! We hopped back on the train and got home really quick! I'm starting to love the train! It was a great day. I think that Ikea will be a repeat outing! It's easy to go to Ikea and not buy when we know that we won't be bringing it home in the long run. Ryan will really have to watch out when we get back home and have a real house to buy for!! :)
