Spring Break 2015 - Midwest Tour - Day 5 - Mall of America

The Mall. would I go again? No. Was it worth going to? Yes. It is impressive in size, but really just your regular stores and really not a whole lot of discounted prices. With all that being said we still ended up spending almost 11 hours there and were completely entertained, our dogs were barking and our kids only went in about two stores. There was some worry about what Chris and I were embarking on as we thought the kids would repeat "Can I have that?" all day long. They each bought a cupcake from the "Cupcake War winner" and that was it. Victory!

First stop LL Bean.
Second stop......daycare...haha.
Saw all the impressive Legos.

Then immediate ride time. The rides were no joke, more impressive than I would have thought would land smack dab in the middle of a mall.
Dad convinced Brady to go on this one.
Our meeting place, luckily Brooke is a mother hen to her brother! 

 
The kids needed some encouragement to go on some of them and then they were off and running.
 This was determined to be the favorite ride. It went up to the 4th floor of the mall, pretty cool.
 
 
 The mall also has an aquarium attached to it, so that was fun to take a break from the rides.



Grabbing a bite to eat before the lazer light show begins, and giving our feet a much needed break!
 The kids were utterly confused at what this was until they finally connected with the concept that it was like an "old I-pod"
 
A fun filled day!
