Minneapolis, MN

This is very disturbing. Ever since we got to Minnesota Tonya has been shrinking until now she can fit under Momance. I don't know if we can stay much longer.

On the other hand, Mall of America is big as advertised. It doesn't have an IKEA store in it like I had heard (IKEA is across the road) but it does have an amusement park in the middle, an aquarium with the largest shark tank in the world in the basement and 5 floors of stores. We went to a "Human Body" exhibit that is also showing at the mall. This is one of those with the real "plasticized" bodies and body parts, skeletons, circulatory systems, muscles, internal organs etc., very interesting. There were also various shows from Branson playing over the weekend.

Did some more sightseeing today. Ate lunch at the Mystic Lake Casino buffet but didn't gamble, so not only did we not lose our ass, we added to it.

Heading north tomorrow, should be at the north pole soon.
