Looking for a great getaway idea that will please the entire family? Look no further! Mall of America®, located in Bloomington, Minnesota, has something for everyone.

MOA™ is the most visited tourist destination in the world, with 520 stores to choose from and 50 restaurants to satisfy your cravings. Suffice it to say, this destination boasts an endless array of attractions to keep everyone busy. An added bonus is the fact that it is located just minutes from the MSP International airport.

New this year is the fabulous Radisson Blu Hotel. We had the pleasure of enjoying an overnight stay last week during our MOA visit. Upon entering the beautifully appointed facility we immediately felt totally relaxed and welcome – thanks to the friendly staff.

We can’t say enough about the convenience of going to and from our room within a matter of two minutes to unload our MOA purchases and freshen up throughout our stay.

Awesome kids destinations include Nickelodeon Universe®, the largest indoor theme park, SEA LIFE® Minnesota Aquarium, the American Girl store, the kid chic LEGO® store, Moose Mountain Adventure Golf and the A.C.E.S. Flight Simulator. We’ve barely scratched the surface regarding all of the exciting things to see and do at MOA.

Our agenda last week included a stop at Barnes and Noble to pick up a hot new book for our tween daughter and an Apple store visit to get my iPhone fixed. My dear husband enjoyed the ‘Royal Shave’ at The Art of Shaving and we even took in a movie at the Theatres at MOA™.

To keep our energy level up during our busy day we grabbed snacks at Doc Popcorn and Nestle Toll House Cafe.

Because we are sushi lovers, there was no question we would have our evening meal at Crave. We’ve included photos showing our dining selections. Everything was delicious and the service was excellent.
