Well, we left Windom around 6am. Only 3 hours than orginally planned. We arrived in Grand Marais about 3. Made pretty good timing. The kids were awesome on the trip. I was so excited just to lay down and rest before we journeyed out on the town. So, Jason goes in to check in and to my suprise they give us this room that is seperate from the main "hotel" it's like another different hotel called "Sprucewood Inn" It was the most dirtiest disgusting room i have ever been in my life. It was dusty, moldy, and just plain GROSS!!! Plus it was a king size bed and no room for a crib...it was just a mess. If it was just Jason and I...i probably wouldn't have cared so much..but the fact that we had kids the mold smell was out of this world........................................ Picture of the room....
There was no way i was staying there. I would rather stay in Jason's Family Cabin with no running water or electricity before i would stay in this dump. The only reason we chose this hotel is so we could use the pool for swimming..but the pool is in the Aspen Lodge Hotel where we orgininally thought we were staying. So, Jason goes back up to the main desk and complains. So, we were moved to the "Aspen Lodge" Hotel near the pool..hooray!!
our new room! and of course you have Hunter jumpin on the bed lol
Well, we settled in our room and decided to hit the town for some supper. We walked to Ole and Sven's Pizza Place. I have to say it was the BEST pizza i have ever had in my life! It was soooooooo good!!!!!! We celebrated Hunter's Birthday. Then we headed back to the hotel for some Viking Football and called it a night.
Saturday Morning Jason headed out to Bait his Bear. Hunter, Abby and I took a stroll down to the Harbor. It was around 9am it was soo beautiful. The weather was so nice and Lake Superior was amazing! We loved watching the seagulls and the Geese. They were sure looking for some food. Although we didn't have any alot of other people did so it was cool watching them being fed. Hunter just liked chasing after them. He had a blast. Then we walked down to all the different shops they had and bought some souveniers for the boys. It was just a lovely day. I could have sat by that lake forever, or "pond" as Hunter refers to it.
Saturday night we ate at the Blue Water Cafe. The waitress just loved Hunter and spoiled him rotten. Saturday night we rested for a long drive Sunday Morning! We left Grand Marais about 10am and finally got home around 6. I was so excited to be home. It's nice to get away..but always nice to come back home. Now Jason gets to go again this Friday and Hunt his bear. I wish him the best of Luck...but also a little jealous i would like to go back up there too....
