((Since you didn't mention, I'll go ahead and assume that the mall has atleast 2 floors. Where the upper floor is relatively dry.))
Day 1:
Well, the place has a roof, and it's not exactly in hard to get shelter from the winds either. But it's a bit of a fixer-upper, and the ground floor isn't that nice to swim through. I'll go ahead and claim a spot on the dryer upper floor.
I'll need to build a watercraft of some sort if I'm to get out into the city.
Mall looks nice though, I bet a smller boat could go right on into the first floor.
I'll go ahead and write down some sort of schedule on this piece of wood that was drifting around.
Schedule:
Monday-Friday:
-scavenge the mall for 16 hours. Look for weapons, supplies, tools, and something to use as a raft of sorts.
-sleep for 8 hours
Saturday-Sunday:
-scavenge the hardware store for 11 hours, time to get there and back included in those hours.
-scavenge the mall for 5 hours.
-sleep for 8 hours.
Other note:
-Eat and drink only as necceary. Need to ration any supplies found.
