more on minneapolis

the sky line you see is minneapolis during the day, and the kid flying fountain was taken in rochester, which is about an hour away. minneapolis is a typical north american city, modern with lots of sky scrapers. i was surprised to learn that the place isnt small, it has a population of about 2 million, which makes it the same size as budapest (although it is a lot less beautiful!) the weather was hot, around 35 or so, but i had to carry a sweater with me all the time since every place i went had air conditioning, which i am definately not used to. it was a bit uncomfortable to sleep at night in the hotel, since i always felt too cold, no matter how i tried to adjust the temperture dial....

yes except the statue is better than i am as it probably does not suffer from jet lag...actually it is a cool statue, randomly placed in a square where nothing else really connects to it...but then i am glad it is there, it saves the space from being boring.
