Biking & Bar Hopping...

Summer in the city is winding down for us... so last weekend when the kids were at the farm with their cousin, we took in one last biking / bar hopping around downtown.  We have done it a number of times in the past 3-4 years, so this time we decided to have a "no repeater" night.

First stop was the rooftop patio at Joe's Garage near Loring Park... with a great view of the Basilica of St. Mary behind us!

Then we were off to The Ugly Mug in the warehouse district... it was a hot & muggy evening, so we cooled of in their nicely air-conditioned bar!





A quick ride over the Hennepin Ave. bridge took us to St. Anthony Main area...
... gotta love the old brick & cobblestone roads & of course, the great view from across the river of the heart of downtown Minneapolis...
We sat outside at Vic's at St. Anthony Main to take in the live band...
...& our friends Angie & Derek met up with us too!


From there, we headed back across the river via the Stone Arch Bridge...
... & took in Grumpy's

Then we headed back up Nicollet Mall to find our last spot for the night...

... MASA

  They have a cucumber margarita that we had to try before leaving the cities... it was different, but good!


It was a fun night!
