Rainy start to our trip

Holly was sad her cinnamon roll was gone :( Even though we still had tons of fries and our milkshakes left...

Our last weekend together, I took Holly downtown to just hang out and relax a bit. The first day, we went to Uptown and went shopping in the rain. It was fun to run in and out of little stores on the strip. We had dinner at a Thai restaurant, and then headed to check into the hotel. It was really nice, and we had a beautiful view of downtown. The farmer's market was still open, so we got a bunch of bananas and peaches for a dollar.

That night we had a craving for milkshakes, so we went to Key's Cafe near the Foshay tower, and had fries with milkshakes. I left the table for a bit, and when I came back, Holly had a huge cinnamon roll halfway finished!

Sunday I took her to Dinkytown where there's a really good restaurant I'd heard lots about. It's called Al's Breakfast, and it's won many awards. The restaurant is crammed in an alley, and inside is only wide enough for one row of standing customers, one row of seated/eating customers, and a few griddles to serve from. It's a classic diner feel, and the food is absolutely amazing!!
