My trip to MN started on May 6 2010. I left Salt Lake around 11 in the morning, my sis took me to the airport and Monte picked me up around 4:30. We went to his house and dropped off my stuff and picked up the rest of the family. We went to dinner, now I can't remember the name of the place but they had hamburgers, fries and frozen custard...yummy!!! Then we headed to downtown Minneapolis so we could go to a baseball game...you know how I love me some baseball!! I wasn't really thinking, but when I dropped my stuff off I forgot to grab my camera...oh well...so I didn't get any pictures of the baseball game but Mickie had their camera so sometime I might be able to see the pictures from their camera. It was actually raining for most of the game, but I didn't mind...we were up so high that we were kinda covered a bit by the little overhanging thing, so even though we didn't have umbrellas or hats or something, we were still not soaked like others might have been. When we would look over at the jumbotron score thing it looked like it was really raining a lot but we hardly noticed it.
I didn't take any pictures on day 2 really either, Monte and I went to the mall of America...I didn't think it really looked all that big from the air or from the outside...but once we got inside and started wandering, it did seem a lot bigger. 4 floors...and an amusement park...we were only there for a couple of hours and didn't do any of the ride stuff, we mostly just wandered. I did find me a couple of souvenirs, I got a twins t-shirt, a couple of postcards and a couple of things at Bath and Body works...Monte had to get something for mothers day!! That night I got to hang out with Mickie, we went to the temple and went to a session. They call it the St. Paul temple even though it isn't even in St. Paul...and I am not really sure how far it was from M&M's house but it took us about 4 hours after all was said and done...I am so spoiled here in the SL valley!!! I live like 10 minutes from the temple and there are sessions every 20 minutes and if JR is closed then there are like 5 other temples I could go to that are probably closer than M&M's St Paul temple!! and I can probably drive there do the session and drive back home in 2-2 1/2 hours. SPOILED!!!
