Visiting Minnesota



What a great trip we had to MN. We spent most of our time enjoying family. The Mall of America was second on the list along with IKEA. I especially liked the indoor roller coaster at the mall, much to Alex's surprise. I generally chicken out of all roller coaster riding opportunities. Swimming in Bill & Sandy's pool was a blast. Their schnoodle dogs, Rascal and Bear were spunky little characters that swam too.
The weather was perfect for a lake cruise on Lake Minnetonka. Hunter & I went to buy sandwiches for lunch, while our men climbed aboard to reserve our table. At the last minute we were able to board the sold out cruise. What a relief. It was beautiful. The captain told us about the history of the area and local landmarks.
