I am the proud gramma of a beautiful 10-year- old girl named Hailee. Her Pappa and I started this site so she can follow us as we travel throughout different states on our vacations. Now that she is older and we are able to travel the country with her, this will be a site for all of our friends and family to join us on our adventures throughout the USA

MALL OF AMERICA 2010

Hi Everyone,
We are having a great time in Minnesota and Wisconsin. We had a very nice flight to Chicago on Saturday. After renting our car, we drove 8 hours through beautiful countryside in Wisconsin before arriving in Minnesota. We went to the Mall for 4 hours on Saturday night. It was over whelming!!! It's like the Grand Canyon, very hard to describe until you actually see it for yourself. I just took it all in with my mouth wide open!!! We went back on Sunday and spent another 8 hours. The Mall is gigantic. We again went back today (Monday) and spent another 1 1/2 hours. AND WE STILL DID NOT SEE IT ALL!!!!!! I never would have imagined Carl spending 14 hours at a mall in one weekend; but, he loved it. We said goodbye to Bonnie, Adam and Hailee and took off for our trip home. We stopped in Wisconsin Dells, WI to sleep overnight at the Holiday Inn Express. We had a great Italian dinner and a tour of the White House which was captured by Aliens and turned upside down. Very interesting. A mixture of a fun house and a haunted house. Now we are back in our room getting ready for bed. Tomorrow we will leave at 6:30 AM to drive 4 hours to Chicago Midway Airport and fly home. See you all very soon and thanks for coming with us on our trip. We love you all!!!!!
Gramma and Pappa

What an adventure, John says, He wants to go. I cannot imagine wanting to stay at a mall for hours and hours, but as you showed in your photos there is so much to see and enjoy. Overwhelming, in your words. Have a safe trip home.
