I am going to a Journalism Conference in Minneapolis with a class in a week and a half, and I was just wondering if anybody knows anything that would be fun to do while there. Just so you know, we are all high schoo students, so nothing illegal...

Mall of America is a big draw for everyone. They have a really good Aquarium.

If the conference is downtown, there are great places to eat!

"King and I" is a great Thai place.

"Hell's Kitchen" is a really cool restaurant


All of downtown is connected by skyways. You can walk for blocks without going outside.

Hey, if we are able to drive, is there anything else that is close by that would be cool to go to? I just want to be able to give my teachers some more options. Anything else you can think of would be much appreciated! Thank you!!

Thanks so much Casey! This is very helpful! And don't worry, all of the girls on the trip are making sure we don't miss the Mall of America.

Minneapolis is one of the hardest places for corporate recruiters to get people to leave. I have a lot of clients up there for one of my businesses Comfort Zone and they all love it!!

Glad you had a good time!
