Shop around the mall where Ella worked. We had our first official date as a couple at the Cheesecake Factory and saw Morbius at the AMC theater.
One of our favorite date spots. Just don't get addicted to the Willy Wonka or Avengers coin machine.
Make a day at the largest zoo (area wise) in the US. We love the animals there. Especially the alligators, mountain lions, lions, and giraffes. (Recommend visiting if you're here for several days)
A nearby favorite with some unique hot dogs and tasty sauce. We went here after our first show seeing the Nicotine Dolls at the Cat's Cradle.
