| Minot is where the 'A' is just FYI |
So as I said in my previous post we decided to head to
Minot, ND and stay the night there. From memory we arrived around 9pm at what turned out to be a truckers motel, we decided to stay there the night anyway.
After spending the night on the internet seeing what Minot was all about I discovered the following.
Nearly 40% of the city's residents are of Scandinavian ancestry, and every October since 1977, Minot has been the host to the Norsk Høstfest, North America's largest Scandinavian-American festival. Scandinavian Heritage Park is located in Minot. Scandinavian Heritage Park features remembrances and replicas from each of the Scandinavian countries: Sweden, Norway, Denmark, as well as Finland and Iceland. - Wikipedia
So the next morning we set of to find this park and do the tourist thing. We finally found it and went for a wander and sliding around a frozen park.
