I have never been to an outdoor mall before and I was pleasantly surprised. There was a lot of tree cover and a lot of stores and it was a enjoyable walk. Even though it was very hot outside at the time there was enough shade that it wasn't miserable. Even if you don't plan on buying things it's a fun adventure.

Always a nice experience here. They have more shaded areas outside the stores than they used to. I appreciate the shade and some outdoor fans in this crazy TX heat.
