My British friend

My friend Haz, whom I met when she came over for my friend's wedding years ago, is in town for the week.
Haz is staying at my friend Jess's house this week, so I've been trying to see her as much as I could in between work and life.
Today I was able to join them on the days adventures, in the previous days Jess and my friend Deanna were able to take her many other places.
We took Haz to a lake so she could stand on water.
She was pretty much amazed that you could actually do such a thing, much less sit on the ice to fish.
We took her to Lake Harriet in Minneapolis because Haz's real name is Harriet (I have no idea how Haz came to be).
After spending some time walking around in the snow, we drove around Lake Calhoun, and then went to lunch and shopping on Grand Avenue.
We also stopped at Minnehaha Falls to check them out in their frozen glory- Haz was in love with the falls.
Haz leaves in Saturday morning, so I hope I can see her once more before she goes.
I'll be so sad when she leaves for home :(
She showed me around London when I was there almost 2 years ago, so it was nice to be able to return the favor.
It was a tiring but great day with them.

I finished off my night with some tap dance, as well as stocking up on fruits for the weekend.
We're getting more snow tonight, lame.
Oh yeah, I gave up coffee shops (Starbucks, Caribou, Dunn Bros, etc.) for lent, so cross your fingers I don't die.
It'll be interesting to see how much money I save.
I'm not giving up coffee, cause that would be just horrible.

I will leave you with pictures from the day.

Stay warm,
Bamf
