Jeff and I spent the afternoon/evening in the cities on Saturday. I called it "Jeff and Melissa's Day of Fun!" heheh! We went to Benihana for an early dinner. It was quite yummy and entertaining. This is the restaurant where they cook the food in front of you on the open grill (Japanese style). Then we went to Lake Street (Minneapolis) to the Midtown Global Market to do something a little different. We walked around there and looked at the interesting things at the little shops. We bought some dessert and ate it there. Next, we made our way to downtown St. Paul. It was such a beautiful evening we decided to walk around a while. Unfortunately, the ice sculptures were just taken down in Rice Park. We'll have to go a little earlier next year!
Me by the Herb Brooks sculpture... do you believe in miracles? We did see this one ice sculpture by one of the restaurants/bars (they also had a bar and a table and chairs made of ice). Jeff sitting in the ice throne!
