We left home at 5 o'clock in the morning for Minneapolis!!! It wasn't so bad early morning driving!!! Though I just enjoyed the orange color of the sky then fell in sleep while Clovis was driving,,,,, but I promised that I will drive on the way back!!!!!! After we competed our meetings, we decided to go to Mall of America!!!
なんだか迷子になりそう、、、と、本当に久しぶりのこの大型ショッピングセンター。アメリカではこのモールアメリカのためにわざわざ色々な州から飛んでくる人も。なのでここはミネアポリスの空港のすぐ近く！インドアのアミューズメントパークもある！Oh we might get lost!!! It's huge!! Many American fly to Minneapolis just for the Mall of America, so it is by the air port! There is an indoor amusement park too!
ＬＥＧＯセクションでは巨大なﾀﾞｲﾅｿｰが！！（クロービスひそかに大喜び！）At the Lego section, we saw a dinosaur ( Clovis was secretly very excited with the LEGOs!!)
と、十分楽しんだ後は、ランチ！！！久しぶりの都会だから何を食べようか迷っちゃう！ミネアポリスにはいろいろな国のレストランがある！ダウンタウンから少し南にあるNicolletアベニューには主にアジア系の沢山のレストランが！Let's go for Lunch!!! We were so excited to have so many good options, back in the countryside we don't have so many choices. We tried Nicollet Avenue, just south of Down town! There are a lot of Asian restaurants around here!
じゃーん！マレーシア料理のお店。私は久しぶりにラクサを食べました！う～～いつ食べてもおいしい～～～東南アジアで旅をしていた頃を思い出します！パイナップルを器にしたお料理も素敵！！久しぶりの都会なので、あえて車の通りが激しい中、外でのランチ！都会満喫です！
We choose Malaysian! I had Laksa!! He had Pineapple pork! The restaurant had outside table along the street where many cars drive by. But it was a nice choice cause we felt like we are in the CITY!!
極めつけはこのラッシュアワーの渋滞。ビロクアではまず味わう事の出来ないこのひと時。いいのか悪いのか、、、、。と、ここを抜けるとそこは平和な大自然。少しずつコーン畑のコーンが伸びてきて、一層緑が増してきました！やっぱり自然がいっかな～～～～！！！と約束通り、帰りは私も運転し、無事に帰ってきました！Then, we were in got stuck in a traffic jam!! we never have this in Viroqua so we really felt like we were in the BIG CITY NOW!!! But on the way back home, it was nice and quiet country roads. Corn has been getting taller and taller so we have more green field!! Nature is always nice!! Of course I drove as I promised!! It was a nice drive, I enjoyed it!!
