Day 8 Continued: Twin Cities

After driving through Missouri, Nebraska, and Iowa, we crossed our last state line for the day and entered Minnesota just as the sun started to set. We were lucky enough to get into the capitol, St. Paul, before nightfall.

That night, Ryan called up one of his sisters to ask about things to see in the Minneapolis, as she had lived there a few years prior.  She gave us some great recommendations, and per our request, she also informed us of where we'd find a safe neighborhood to park our car...with us sleeping in it that is...

We slept better than we thought we would, it being our first overnight stay in the car.  I think we attracted a little attention to ourselves in this neighborhood of mansions though.  We woke up to firefighters staring into our car probably wondering who the heck these bums are.
