We are preparing for a visit from my in-laws in a few weeks. As part of that process we created a list of things they will want to see while they are here. We'll be going with them to a lot of these things but some they will visit on their own.

First of all, they are arriving via the Megabus. Round-trip from Indianapolis to Minneapolis (one pole to the other) their bus tickets are just around $100 (total for both of them)!!

• MICKY'S DINER (St. Paul) famous diner in several movies.
• CANDYLAND (St. Paul) a great little candy store!
• FAMOUS DAVE'S Pit BBQ (Minneapolis - Uptown) Great BBQ in a really fun part of time with lots of cute little shops!
• THE BAD WAITRESS (Minneapolis) This diner is right across the street from our church, it lives up to its name! Its funny so check it out!
• THE MALL OF AMERICA (Bloomington) We could spend a whole day here!! It is huge!!
• MINNEHAHA FALLS (Minneapolis) this is beautiful! Maybe we can rent one of those 4 person bikes!
• MILL CITY MUSEUM - WALKING TOURS (Minneapolis, historic St. Anthony) Not sure if the museum sounds great but the walking tours sound cool looks like there is one on Fri and Sat
• THE WALKER ART CENTER (Minneapolis) We haven't been yet but is supposed to be a really cool art museum with special outdoor art and an artists putt putt course!
• COMO ZOO, CONSERVATORY, AND BUTTERFLY GARDEN (St. Paul) This is free zoo, the butterfly garden is super fun!
• LYNDALE ROSE GARDEN (Minneapolis) We went here the other day! It was beautiful. It is next to a park where there are outdoor concerts most nights!
• THE GLOBAL MARKET (Minneapolis) A couple of blocks from our house there are fun restaurants and shops along with concerts!
• LAKE CALHOUN (Minneapolis) One of our favorite lakes near-by has a beach boat rental!! and a good view of the city
  

This is just a sampling of what there is to do in the city and really represents her parents interests - her dad is a big diner fan!
