If you’ve read my other itineraries, you know how fun Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World can be. Yvonne’s kids had never been inside one of these and were blown away at the size of this enormous store which sells everything for hunting, fishing, camping, and cooking under one roof. The kids could not believe the size of the fish in the huge tanks which represent all the local fish that you can catch. We all tried on cammo gear, learned about different types of fishing lures, and even enjoyed climbing aboard some ATV's. Lilia tried on a "gilly" suit, which is a jumpsuit covered in fake leaves and twigs that hunters wear for tracking. She tried to convince me it would make an awesome Halloween costume so she could go as a tree. Great idea, but not for $100. Again, when you're traveling with kids and you are even remotely close to one of these outdoor superstores, you just have to check it out. It's a great stop that's free and lots on fun.
