My friends and I went to the Red Hook Ikea yesterday. Going on a weekday is definitely the way to do it – the place was pretty much empty. Except…there were all these preteen kids running around everywhere eating $1 yogurt and carping at each other. Later, while eating our meatballs and lingonberry sauce, my friends and I saw all of the kids piling into a schoolbus in the parking lot.
Why would a junior high school take a mid-day field trip to Ikea? Just because the food’s cheap and there’s plenty of floor space?
