Minnesota Science Museum and the City(s) One More Time

Posted on 15 April 202416 July 2024 by Bryan Lawrence

After dropping my son and his wife off at the airport at 8 AM for their flight home, I had most of the day to enjoy the city one more time, as my flight wasn’t until 6 PM. I had breakfast and visited some of the sites I had wanted to see, ending with an afternoon at the Minnesota Science Museum in Saint Paul.

And while the House of Balls was closed on Sundays they still had some lovely artwork on display.

The museum had four floors, which took me about 2 1/2 hours to explore. I found the Science Quackery exhibit most enjoyable. Fortunately, I finished as four busloads of Girl Scouts and their moms arrived, just as I was finishing lunch.
