After doing some research, I realize that Tanger Outlets might be big to me because I found out the headquarters is actually in Greensboro, North Carolina. I am from North Carolina, so everyone always talks about driving to the Tanger Outlets. I've been to some here in North Carolina, one in Tennessee, one in South Carolina, one In Georgia, and now one in Arizona. It says that there are a total of 35 centers in 24 states. They are nice because they have really good name brand items for great prices. For example, my husband bought a pair of Reebok shoes for $30 USD, which is really cheap for men's name brand shoes here in the US.

Wow, seems like your flight to Bali was long. I'm sure once you were there it was worth it. I know what you mean about how the excitement makes you just want to keep going and going.
