Easy to get to
Walking at Mall of America
Contributed by Diann Storrs

Too bad I didn’t have my hair cut—I look terrible! Otherwise it looks like a real good picture. That’s the Mall of America. I like to walk—I walk a lot—I go all three floors. It’s easy to get to—I can either take the 7 bus or go downtown to get the express.

The Mall of America is my favorite place because it’s big and it’s fun to walk around and look at things. I like to people-watch. I also like the State Fair. When the State Fair is on, I’m there about every day. Just watching people.

I like chocolate, but I try to avoid the candy stores as much as possible. It’s kind of like being an alcoholic—you stay away from the bars! I’ve trained my taste buds, so chocolate doesn’t taste the same as before. I can go back to it and it doesn’t give me the same feeling. Of course, I could get it back if I ate enough of it!
