On the road to Minneapolis we saw this big rock tower that had been formed as
a glacial island and had to try and climb it. I didn't do too well but
Matt and Justin managed to get to the top. We got to Minneapolis with
enough time to walk around for a while and ride the roller coaster. It is
in an amusement park inside the mall with a roller coaster and a log ride and a
bunch of other stuff. The mall was absolutely huge. They had to
double and triple up the stores all over the mall. There was also a whole
store for buying socks. The fourth floor was the "adult" section
with a Hooters and some bars. We walked around for a few minutes and drove
around to find a place to sleep in the van. We played around in the snow
for a while. It was our first sight of snow and stopped to play around
outside. The next morning we started at the Mall of America and didn't leave for
10 hours. I think we saw the whole mall twice. We found a bar
that served dollar drafts and took full advantage of it. We stayed for
three hours. After that, we had the great idea of riding razor scooters as
fast as we could through the mall. Needless to say we got stopped. We were
asked to leave and not return for six months or it would be considered trespassing.
