Minneapolis trip plans

We arrived at Mall of America last night. G loved the roller coasters and rides, we didn't do any shopping because we are planning a 2 nite stay on the way home. If you have TONS of money and don't know where to spend it, this is the place. The Rain Forest Cafe was different, we had never eaten at one, but VERY expensive and noisy. All in all the boy had a great time, the Radison was very nice and we left early Wednesday to drive to the edge of the Badlands. Today we drove all day, from very stormy Mpls to the edge of the Badlands in Kadoka, SD. We're staying at the Budget Host Sundowner, a bi...

western us June-July 08

46 day trip

We didn't make our original flight to Kauai, due to our delay in <B>Minneapolis</B>, but caught the next flight to Lihue less than an hour later. We picked up our rental car, stopped for a few groceries, and made it to the timeshare before it got too late. So excited to be here! Today we drove into Kapa'a, so Katie could get her fix of Java Kai (delicious coffee!). We then walked along Kapa'a Beach Park and took our senior portraits. We made our way to the Kilauea Lighthouse and checked out the nesting birds. The park was a great refuge for the birds and a lone monk seal we saw down on the beach belo...

Kauai

8 day trip

July 3, 2007 We have travelled over 900 miles in the last three days. Our first camp was in West Virginia (Gerald R. Freeman Campground; Sutton, WV)... Day two brought <B>us</B> to My Old Kentucky Home State Park in Bardstown, KY. Day three brought <B>us</B> to our first real stop along the way... Mammoth Cave National Park. MCNP was spectacular. We took a two hour tour through the most historic parts of the cave. Mammoth Cave is truly "Mammoth" with over 367 miles of recorded passages. We saw only two miles of the vast caverns... but is was amazing. July 7, 2007 We spent the Fourth of July in Memphis, TN. ...

2007 Cross Country RV

34 day trip

Day 2, In Kansas en route to Denver, listening to Bright Eyes (I’m Wide Awake, It’s Morning). 16 miles of Kansas left, and thank goodness for that. The person who started calling the middle U.S. the “great” plains was crazy. After 2 hours or so of thinking about it, do you know how many great things I can think of about Illinois, Missouri and Kansas? How about none. Well, Chicago is cool but we were nowhere near there driving through. Despite a very long day starting in Kansas City, KS with nothing but wheat and corn fields to look at for the past almost 6 hours (and that pesky speeding ticket...

Pac NW Summer 2008

36 day trip

- Drive from <B>Minneapolis</B> to Badlands National Park. - Night Prowl with Ranger - Listen to the night - Night animals - Adapting to the night (vision) - Very Scenic loop drive - unique geological formation - We expected to see Sioux Falls, but we pass right by it because we thought it was too small. - Drive to Mt. Rushmore from Badlands. - Parking is $8.00. We decide it was not worth it. - We recommend parking outside and just take a picture of Mt. Rushmore from far away. - Drive to Jewl Cave - 2nd longest cave in <B>US</B>, but scenary was not very impressive - Longest cave in <B>US</B> is Mammoth Cave, in T...

Minneapolis to LA

6 day trip

All travel--from the West Coast to the Midwest to Amsterdam to Venice. A storm in <B>Minneapolis</B> caused delays so we almost didn't make our flight to Venice. Huge problem since our Ho(s)tel only lets you check in from 9:00am-1:00 pm or 6:00-8:00 pm. If we don't make our flight, we have to find a new place to stay for the night. Fortunately we make it (literally running all the way to the gate). Unfortunately, our luggage does not. That will have to arrive later! After almost not making it to Venice in time to check in to our hotel, we are thrilled to be there and only a little concerned about our...

Spring Break Northern Italy

12 day trip

We made this a five day trip by leaving work at 3 p.m. Mon. and driving 6 hours to Ames Iowa to spend the night. Tuesday morning we were off early, stopping in Albert Lea and getting picnic supplies. We arrived in <B>Minneapolis</B> at 11 and headed straight to Lake Calhoun for lunch on the lake. It was beautiful. After a brisk walk we headed for the Mall Of America where we were to meet our tour bus at 2:00. We always allow plenty of time to get where we're going. We have been temporarily lost in many cities and at some time we knew this would be another one. For this reason we always arrive early. ...
