This morning Tina decided to call around the Targets before we left to spend our gift cards at Borders (thanks, Uncle Buddy). The first one she called in Fairview reported that they had units and, after some wrangling on the phone, they reserved one for us. Thomas and I jetted over there shortly after and successfully acquired our Wii! I bought ExciteTruck with it. Graham and Thomas have agreed to split the cost of an additional Wiimote, but they are still hard to find.
After the purchase, we met the rest of the family at Buddy’s house for lunch. We hooked the Wii up to Buddy’s TV and tried out boxing, golf, bowling, tennis and ExciteTruck. Part of the fun is playing but a large part is also watching other people play. Everyone enjoyed it before we were off to Borders and now home. Thomas is configuring the wireless internet connection and will probably spend the next hour setting up his Mii.
