Must See in Minneapolis
There are a lot of fantastic things to see in Minneapolis.Allow us to suggest to you the following onesHolidazzle Parade
This impressive nighttime parade is held downtown Minneapolis several times a week between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Costumes--which have lights on them--often have themes including: Peter Pan, Wizard of Oz, zoo animals, nursery rhymes, walking light bulbs (a crowd favorite!), Santa Claus and others
Lake of the Isles
Lake of the Isles has bird sanctuaries on its (officially off-limits) islands, and a public skating rink (with warming house) are groomed in the winter months. Check the newspaper; you may get lucky and catch a world-class speed-skating competition here. Its shores also feature some of the best climbing trees in the city, particularly for those who carry a short rope ladder in their pack.
Lake Calhoun
Lake Calhoun has a large public beach and boat rentals (and lessons), and a snack bar that resembles a real restaurant more every summer.
Big Brain Comics
A great comic/underground book store, very neatly and intelligently laid out. Named Best Comic Book Shop by City Pages two years running , the only mark against it is the slight air of pretension that casual buyers may encounter.
