Charlotte bought an American Girl Doll on our last trip with medium length blonde/brown hair, a fringe, and blue eyes. Of course, there is just about every conceivable option so your doll can look like you.
As well as selling the dolls, and almost every conceivable accessory option (clothes, furniture (a $160 bed anyone?), matching doll and owner clothes, etc.), the stores also offer experiences.
So, we headed off this morning for lunch. You bring your doll with you, and they have a special seat at the table just for your doll. Your doll also gets a mini tea cup and saucer to keep, which James has had great fun playing with.
You get 2 courses of lunch (maybe 3?), and once again the kids spent more time looking at the food than eating it. Charlotte was very excited to share her lunch with her doll though.
After lunch Charlotte took her doll to the hair salon. Mummy totally refused all the up-sells for cleaning arms and legs etc., and just booked the hairstyle. While they were brushing the doll's hair they noticed she was a bit "wobbly" and needed fixing. Luckily that was free :).
Charlotte was extremely happy wth her doll's new hairstyle, and with the new matching pyjamas we bought her and the doll. Lol.
We thought that after a busy few days it might be good for James to have a decent nap, so we headed back to the hotel for a rest and to get the packing done.
Charlotte decided she wanted ice cream for dinner, so we headed off to IHOP (International House of Pancakes) for dinner. Both kids ended up with ice cream for dinner, while we had something more substantial ;).
