Birthdays at McDonald's

While mimine was here, one of Aria's friends (Esther), celebrated her birthday at McDonald's at the gurney Plaza Mall.

She invited Aria along with many other school friends.

It was like after-school playtime at McDonald's!

It was great fun watching Aria instigate fun things to do while at the party!


When the party ended, we explored Gurney with mimine. Ian attracted a sizeable crowd of children when he played this simple spiral coin game.


The twist that Ian added was deftly catching the coin moments before it plummeted into the abyss so that he could play the coin over and over again! The crowd was applauding and other kids were drawn to play their own coins. Eventually, they had to board their tour bus to leave, and Ian realized that a boy had left his coin behind--Ian ran after him to return his coin!

It was certainly fun seeing a mall through children's eyes.
