Honestly, the Mall of America is my favorite place in the Twin Cities. People said it was going to be a failure--it was supposed to be the number one failure in the state of Minnesota--and it's proven tons of people wrong, so it's impressive. I shop like all the others and watch all the tourists; it's a great people place. If you like to watch people it's a number one hot spot. Since it began, it's been my favorite place. Plus, my dad put the air-conditioning systems in there so I have a little bias there. It has just attracted me from the beginning. I like shopping by myself, but if I am just looking around I go with friends. It's not really a memorable place--you go there, you shop, and you get done. There's just funny people, everyday you go there and you see funny people, you just look at the people and you laugh.
