Title: Adventuring to the Mall of America
Post by: Spartanguy88 on January 16, 2009, 11:48:06 AM

For this weekend; me (along with my mom, my brother, and some of his friends) are going to the Mall of America.

It's my first time going there! I heard it has a ROLLER COASTER! (And a ton of clothing stores)

I bet I'll have a great time.

The Mall of America in Bloomington? :)
I'm sure you will like it. It is a really large place to be sure. I was there in 2002 during my excange.

OMG. That place is huge!

I got two things from there.

1. A large 471 piece LEGO kit. Took me two hours to make.

2. A new 360 game. Fallout 3. Great RPG/FPS.

I rode on several of the roller coasters while I was there. And at the hotel I was staying at, it had a big indoor water park.

AWSOME

Very cool! :D

Sounds a lot like the West Edmonton Mall (http://www.westedmontonmall.com/home/default.asp), not far from where I live (few hours' drive).  Advertised at the biggest mall in the world, it's got a lot of the same stuff you mentioned: water park, roller coaster (and amusement park), go-kart racing, hotel, mini-golf, hockey rink, bowling, arcade...all sorts of random attractions. :p

Haven't been in quite a few years though.  I do remember that most of the stores actually weren't that great :p Lots of clothing stores.  :lol

Yeah, that's what I hate about malls.  About 40% of the stores in them are clothes stores.  Honestly, I don't know how they survive in there. :p I've never bought clothes from a mall in my life.

It's about the same in the mall nearby, which I only went to to get glasses a few months ago and walked around in for the hour that I had to wait, except in that one it's over half clothing stores.
