Ikea is in Japan only 1.5 to 2 hours away

We took the time while the kids are on Summer vacation to take a road trip to Ikea. It was fun. The trip was long while going because I used my great navigational skills to take main highways which are convenient and simplistic but the traffic can extend the trip. On the way back I listened to my wife and took another 5 or 6 different streets and we shaved off 30+ minutes on the trip. We could have taken the toll roads but that would have been about $60 dollars US round trip.


The facility is just like the Costa Mesa store which means there are hundreds of similar stores around the globe. It was very much a treat as we used to spend a lot of time just putting the kids in the day care center and sipping coffee and talking in the Cafeteria. We did stumble upon a bargain day where the 10 meatball dish was 1/2 price so we chowed down. The kids enjoyed the fun and we were lounge lizards trying out all the soft chairs. We don't have a lot of chairs here so it was nostalgic to hang out.
