minneapolis: city time

during our visit, we took a walking tour of downtown minneapolis. we arrived by the new and exciting light rail (hooray for public transportation) at the same time the train was delivering thousands of twins fans to the metrodome. it was a tight squeeze on a hot day.
dana appears distressed while david seems to be enjoying it.
our walking tour took us across the river a few times.
julia describes a dam in the river that marks the location of a once-great water fall. she says it was bigger than niagara falls. i think she's exaggerating.
mmmmm. grain belt beer.
mills along the riverbanks and the new (blue) guthrie theater peeking out from behind.
downtown, where all the lights are bright.
