We checked in our biggest touring choir ever, 45 singers, and headed to Minneapolis via Denver. Once in Minneapolis, our great bus driver, Gil, had arranged for us a place to eat. Despite it being 11pm, we needed food, so the iHop was open and they had brought in extra cooks for our visit. The iHop, and our hotel, are across the street from the Mall of America, where we'll stop in tomorrow morning before heading to Collegeville. No internet access at the hotel...
