Minnesota-Minneapolis and St. Paul

Our "Mini-moon" weekend in Milwaukee (PIPs)

We had a great time!! (Minus the Twins sucking)

We arrived Thursday evening and went out to a fabulous dinner at Mason Street Grill in DT Milwaukee.  It was our splurge meal on the trip. It was DELICOUS!

Friday:  Hung out in DT Milwaukee exploring for the morning.  Did some shopping in the Milwaukee Public Market, walked along the river walk, and rode around on the Trolly that loops around the city for about a 40 minute tour.  You can get on and off for only a $1!  That afternoon we had our tour at the Lakefront Brewery.  Thanks to those who suggested this because it was a great time!  It was fun and they give you lots of beer - only  $7 a person! 
Friday night was Twins game #1 for us and we had awesome seats - front row next to the Twins dugout.   It was actually behind the camera well and turns out I was on TV the inning after my man Danny Valencia hit his home run because I was waving his jersey around like an idiot.  I knew the guy had the camera on me but didn't know if he was actually the camera in use, ya know?

Saturday:  Woke up and walked down by the lake in downtown.  We had signed up for a Segway tour that afternoon and spent about an hour and a half doing that.  Neither of us had ever been on a Segway before and it actually wasn't hard at all.  If anyone ever thinks about doing a tour somewhere like this, I'd recommend it!  It's a bit pricey but a fun way to get around and see a city.
For lunch we went to the Wisconsin Cheese Bar in dt and tried out some yummy cheeses and beer.  It was a cute little place!  Finished off the day at Miller Park watching the Twins play like crap :)

It was a fun weekend and here are some pics!



At the game Friday night.
