This is the Minneapolis I am missing. The beauty of the city backdrop paired with a beautiful snowfall. I spent a lot of time down on Nicollet Mall. From Brit's Pub to the little corner drug store or anywhere else along the Mall. It didn't matter the weather, although we did enjoy zig-zagging our way through the sky walk system when the temps were in bone chilling range, like they are now. Here in Tampa we have Baywalk, which is also pretty, but still lacking the special Minneapolis ambiance. And earlier this week, it was announced that Baywalk has filed for bankruptcy. Who knows what will become of the area now?

ReplyDeleteWelcome o the group of Twin-Cities lovers.
Todays photo of Downtown looks awesome!
Yes, the scene looks wonderful yet I prefer sun, sand, and surf. Off to Mazatlan, Mexico on the 31st and eager to abandon the frozen tundra.
ReplyDeleteah, bankruptcy. that word is everywhere these days, isn't it? i am about to head down the nicollet mall right now on my noontime walk, from my bankrupt employer.
ReplyDeletei've never been to tampa, but i've been to st. pete and i loved it. is The Pier going bankrupt, too?
I'll take a little of Florida and a lot of Minneapolis any day, they are a good mix. To bad they are so far away from each other.
