Sentence: Stacy carefully recarnnoitered the terrain, searching for the one perfect spot that would land her closest to the mall entrance.

She had to walk halfway around the mall in the dark, through ice and snow, with her big packages, to find her car. "Next time," she thought to herself, "I'm going to do more careful recarnnaissance before I park."

Etymology: car + reconnoiter
