Minneapolis trip

I can't get the blogger picture to go, so this will just be a written post.

Minneapolis was a great place to visit. We left Friday afternoon and got to the hotel about midnight. We slept in every day until 10am. On Saturday, we went swimming (oh wait, we did that every day) at the hotel and then went downtown to watch the Twins play in the Metrodome. The Metrodome is a great place to watch a game. It's climate controlled and very spacious for being in a dome. This is their last year there. They are building an outdoor stadium. The Twins beat the Tigers. Then we walked downtown and looked around. We shopped at a two story Target. It's just like the regular Super Target but on two levels. Still a cool concept. We saw Hell's Kitchen (but didn't eat there).

On Sunday, we shopped for several hours at the Mall of America. Okay, so it's just a mall, but it was cool. They have all the regular shops plus a Swatch store. Love.That.Place. We ate dinner at Bubba Gump's. Yummy.

Monday, we messed around too long and took a wrong turn, so we didn't go to the zoo like we planned. Jeff's idea was to go to Water Park of America. We weren't sure if L was going to have fun, but it turned out to be a great idea. L loved it. She went down several of the slides and laughed and laughed. We had a wonderful time.

One of my favorite things we did was stop at Legoland. We built lots of things and bought some Legos. I love Legos and hope L will too.

Our last day, Tuesday, we shopped at IKEA. Love. That. Place. We dropped L off in the kids playland. Jeff and I checked out furniture and made our wish list. Then we drove south of the city and shopped at an outlet mall. We loved the fact that there's no sales tax on clothes. We drove home afterwards.

It was nice to get away for a few days. Back to work tomorrow.
