This past week my husband, son, granddaughter, and I took a road trip to the Twin Cities. We had planned the vacation around activities which a six-year-old would enjoy. The first day, we first traveled to Mall of America.
My son and husband took turns riding with my granddaughter on a variety of activities.
Both my husband and son were wonderful “riding buddies” even though many of the rides were not designed for adults who are over six feet tall. I think the granddaughter liked most of the rides. Although, at the end of the day, whenever we asked her “what was your favorite ride?” , she would reply “Not the log ride!”
On the second day, we traveled to St. Paul’s Minnesota Science Museum. One of the exhibits, was a news anchor desk with the teleprompter; future newscaster? The featured exhibit was a large area which displayed replications of Leonardo Da Vinci’s. The designers of this exhibit created a beautiful tranquil space which displayed Da Vinci’s two dimensional drawings to 3D sculptures.
Later that day, we stayed at a hotel which had a water park where we spend the rest of the day. After a good night’s rest, we headed back to Sioux Falls.
