I'm attending my first lesbian wedding. I'm happy for Kristin & Danette. I will also be turning 30 over the weekend. It'll be nice to be surrounded by friends.

Shou Chi has finally gotten her ticket. We should be figuring out what we want do do while we're there, but we haven't yet. Just a couple more weeks until we go.

I think the mall will keep us busy... it is the mall of the America after all! You know I definitely want to go to that. I don't really care abt the museums there so I'd want to keep museum visits to the minimum unless there's a special exhibit or something. Since I'm leaving Sunday afternoon, I would want to celebrate Patti's 30th Saturday nite... we should find a decent place to party :D Thoughts?

I'm not spending the whole weekend in at the mall! Even if it's huge, I refuse.

Do you think there's a water park inside the mall? (Remind Divya to bring her swimsuit.) What's PI? I'm not saying to spend the whole weekend at the mall, but with all the wedding activities, I doubt that we'll have time to do anything else besides hitting the gigantic mall.

Check above for info on PI

We have all day Sat to do anything we want. Also we have Sunday until we take you to the airport. we could do the mall Fri after Divya arrives at 11.

There's Underwater Adventures at the mall of america, but that's more like aquarium. "Valley fair is an amusement park with over 75 rides and attractions! Admission also includes admission to the Whitewater Country Waterpark!"

Dancing at reception yes, "After the ceremony, please join us for dinner and dancing!"
