Minneapolis 2010

We decided to go to Minneapolis for our family vacation this year. We thought it would be nice to go somewhere a little cooler than Austin in the middle of August. Unfortunately Minneapolis was having a heat wave while we were there, but we still had a great time.

We stayed at the Residence Inn in Edina. I highly recomend it for family travel. It connects directly to Edina's indoor Edinborough Park. There is a massive multi-level indoor play structure for kids, and Isaac had a great time climbing and exploring. We also enjoyed the Mall of America. Isaac enjoyed riding the rides, and there were several smaller rides for little kids to enjoy. The mall is very big with so much to see and do, so we had to go back a second day to see the aquarium.

Overall, it was a great family friendly vacation spot, but even with so much to see and do while we were there, Isaac's favorite part of the trip by far was getting to ride on an airplane!
