The Great Mall & Dancing

Erich dropped me of at The Great Mall on his way to work today as we were going dancing afterwards. Pretty cool mall, except there was a distinct lack of novelty & gift shops and Book shops. Security was amusing zooming along on their Segway's. Luckily I'd brought my new White Fang book just in case I got bored. After a while I found a cluster of bench seats and settled down with my book. It was just outside the Police centre, which seems to be a common thing to have in a mall around here. In their window was a sign advertising fingerprinting for children which I found surprising. Even more surprising was how many parents brought their kids in and had them fingerprinted. I guess thats just the New Zealander in me, because it makes good sense. I was there for long enough to see at least 10 kids get fingerprinted before someones stray fart came along and scared me away.
Wandered again without finding anything I felt like buying before finding another cluster of bench seats near a fountain. Once Erich arrived we grabbed a bite to eat, walked around and got a new duvet for the bed and a shirt for Erich to wear at dancing because he'd forgotten his.
Dancing was great fun, and cool to see Mia, Jonah, Erin and others again. We arrived after the lesson this time, and stayed for the dance party. My ears finally not blocked 100% of the time, so feeling great.
