🌊 Saturday October 12th, 3pm @ Minnehaha Falls

Come join @sapphire and I as we pay our respects to eggbug in the majesty of those falls which burst forth like our own tears! Here's everything you need to know 👇

Safety first 😷🥇

This meetup is happening in real life, so be sure to brush up on some basic precautions if you haven't already. Minors welcome, but please be responsible. Covid is still raging, so masking is required and extra masks will be provided. 👍

Transit & Parking 🚊🚘

Minnehaha falls is on the Blue light rail line! Hop off, cross Hiawatha, turn left and go till you hear the crash of water and the flutter of delicate eggbugged wings. If you're driving, here's an interactive parking map. It's also nice to bike to if that's your flavor!

What if it rains? 🌧️❓

If it's weak or brief, the nearby bandshell can keep us dry. If it's really gnarly, we'll fall back to Mall of America, which is also on the Blue Line! We'd hypothetically meet on the side near the rollercoasters of the "Huntington Bank Rotunda" (the one you enter coming from the light rail).

What if my soft animal body gets hungry? 🐈🍓

I don't know much about food nearby but I'll try to bring some snacks and drinks and it'd be cool if you did to! I also hear there may be sub sandwiches and ice cream and fish n chips nearby?!
We'll probably hang around till sunset :^)

Contact us 📞:eggbug:

Feel free to message me on discord or signal or something (it's in the profile) if you have questions or want help finding where we're at! I could also spin up some kinda group chat if that feels useful.

Let's all have fun and mourn eggbug 🍾:eggbug-sob:

The main food spot nearby is Sea Salt, which goes great fish fry type stuff, but can have very long lines. they also have a sandwich counter with shorter lines that is also good. i don't know if they'll still be open in october though.

there are also often food trucks near there on the weekends, at least in the summer. again, october may complicate things.

past that ... i think there's a DQ in walking distance?
