Minneapolis Layover Adventure: Skyways & Surprises! ✈️🌆
After exploring suburban Bloomington, MN, I squeezed in a half-day dash to the Twin Cities (sorry, low-key St. Paul). Planned to ride the Metro Blue Line downtown, but nope—opted for Uber/Lyft to catch my flight! ⏳ 🌟 Highlights & Mysteries 🏙️ Skyway System Famous for its winter-proof indoor bridges (longest in the U.S.!), but many were closed—weekend or seasonal? 🤷♂️ Foshay Museum Observation Deck: Only open 12-6PM (missed it 😢). 🏭 Mill City Museum Fun fact: General Mills (think Häagen-Dazs 🍦 & Wanchai Ferry dumplings 🥟) started here! 🎨 Sculpture Garden + Weisman Art Museum Spoon & Cherry 🥄🍒 + Weisman’s deconstructivist architecture = art vibes! 🖼️ 🏰 Historic Fort Snelling Still on my bucket list—someone explore and report back! 🎖️ ✈️ Flight Tip: Midwest hubs (DEN/DFW/LAS/PHX/MSP) dominate direct routes. 🚍 BRT Alert: High-speed transit corridors are expanding—future-proof travel! 🚉 #Minneapolis #SkywayCity #TravelHacks #ArtAndHistory #TwinCities
