[00:00:00] We also have a lot of great date night options in addition to dining. So if you come out to dine, whether it's a day date or if it's for evening, whatever that might be, what are some of the other things that you guys find as your favorites for date ideas here at the mall? Well, I take all of my first dates, it's actually a combination of dining and attraction, to Cadillac Ranch and ride the bull, which is probably why I'm still single. I'm kidding, I'm kidding. Yeah, I don't know if I can handle that.
[00:00:29] You know, things that are... Just kidding everyone. What I think is really fun is some of our new attractions. So first of all, there's some new escape games at... Escape Game, but one of our new ones too is Activate. And I've done that once now and I was exhausted. But it was fun, whether it's for a date or if you're taking your family for Valentine's Day. I loved it. It was so much fun. Yeah. I feel like it might be cheesy because I feel like we think of it a little bit more for children, but like Build-A-Bear is really cute too. And I think that that's where Valentine's Day comes in.
[00:00:58] For all ages. And then of course, hitting all the treat spots. Like I want to go do all... Not just from a dining standpoint, but nothing bunk cakes is so delicious. We have Carlos Bakery. We have all of these other spots that have a little sweet treat you can get on the go. A little scavenger hunt. You can make a little list. Oh, yes. I kind of like that actually. I love it. Sarah, do you have any fun date ideas? Date night. I would want just to go shopping and people watching, of course. We can do that. We can do that too. We have options.
[00:01:26] And stopping at the popcorn. Oh, that's a good one too. Popcorn. One of my favorites is Museum of Illusions. Oh yeah. I think it's a great date night option for friends, for couples. It is just... It's really interactive, fun photo ops, about an hour, hour and a half. It depends how long you'd want to take in there. But then people also forget that we have a movie theater here. We have a comedy club here. A beautiful one. Lots of fun things for people to do. Yeah. And so even if you don't get a chance to do it this week for Valentine's Day, very fun
[00:01:55] options to think about as you're planning things in the future.
