Where We Live Blog Circle-June_Minnepolis MN Photographer
This month I wanted to get out and about and focus on one of the best parts of the Twin Cities- our public transportation! We have a Light Rail train line that runs in between Downtown Minneapolis, Downtown St. Paul, the MSP Airport and the Mall of America. There is also our North Star train line, which goes all the way from Big Lake in the north to Minneapolis- an almost 60 miles trip.
In addition to our trains, we have an extremely robust bus system with eco-friendly green buses, bike stations for use throughout the city and cars for rent by the hour. You really don’t need a personal car in the Twin Cities! Although, I have to admit I do have a car; but it’s a hybrid- so I feel like that has to count for something!
Come visit my city! Fly into MSP, take the train Downtown to your hotel, take a bus to Uptown for yummy eats and hop on a bike to do the rounds on the Lakes. While you’re here, give me a ring and we can meet up for some photos 🙂
Included in this month’s blog are photos from Metro Transit, Hour Car and Nice Ride MN.
Now head on over to Pics and Papers from the lovely Stacy to see what’s new in her town!
