My niece is visiting for a couple days. Yesterday we went to the zoo in St.Paul, and today we walked in a 5k race my town is having. Then we took her to see Petes Dragon. Fun times and I was really impressed by Petes Dragon as I was not a big fan I of the original. There were even parts where I teared up.
Here's a couple shots from the conservatory at the zoo. The zoo and gardens are free.

And our 5k took us out into the country, not where I normally walk. It was pretty and the rain held off until the end.

And no, we weren't leading the pack.

Now it's time to go to the tractor parade! Then grilled pizza. We had the horse parade last night. There are fireworks tonight too, the aren't Disney but we may be listening to wishes in the car as they go off.
