The first place we visited when we got into the cities was the zoo. It was really fun to see animals that we don't have at our zoo. The really nice thing was that our local zoo membership worked there. We still spent a lot of money on food and souvenirs. I had forgotten how big the Minnesota Zoo was and by the end of our visit the kids were getting a little grumpy. Cordelia actually fell asleep in the car while we were in the drive thru to bring back some food to the hotel. The Minnesota Zoo has a new playground which is really nice. I'm not sure what Rion's doing, but he kind of looked like an explorer. He's standing next to the playground's version of Split Rock Lighthouse.

After the game we hit up Nickelodeon Universe and the Mall of America. If you look at Cordelia's feet you'll notice she only has one shoe on. About five minutes later, I noticed she had no shoes on. The girl loves shoes, but she also loves taking them off. I made somewhat of an attempt to find them, but ended up buying a new pair at The Children's Place which was conveniently located near Legoland.
Rion was in heaven in Legoland. I don't think he wanted to leave. He was amazed at everything. When we got back to the hotel we were talking to a couple outside that had gone to the game. Then a boy with a huge Legoland bag walked by and Rion could tell it was Star Wars set inside. Poor guy. We didn't get anything at Legoland.
