Hey Everyone! I'm so excited to be back from our trip to Minneapolis. It was a blast and very exciting but I am sure glad to be home and back to sleeping in my own bed. It's always nice to go away but let me tell you, its always even better to come home.
We took off Sunday morning around 10:00 and you could just tell everyone was super excited to get on the road. We traveled to eat at the "Wild Hog Salon & Eatery" It was a nice place we enjoyed a large buffet of breakfast foods and yummy desserts. We also got a nice tour of the place. It was fun trying out a new restaurant. We then all loaded back up and got on the bus to go to Chanhassen Dinner Theater. We got the privilege of getting to see "7 Brides for 7 Brothers" it was a hilarious play. The food was amazing at Chanhassen! I had the top sirloin steak and I highly recommend it. After a great dinner and show we loaded the bus's back up and headed to an amazing hotel, the Northland Inn & Suites. I do have to admit we were all very tired on the trip to the hotel, but we when we all saw that huge hotel all lit up and the dark, we got SUPER excited!! It was awesome to get there, get settled in and hit the sheets after 2 hours a giggling and laughing our heads off, but what can ya do when you put 5 girls in one room?

The second day we were at the hotel was great! We woke up to a wonderful buffet of breakfast foods and off we went to tour the Hilton Hotel, I do have to say this was my favorite part of the trip. The behind the scenes of the hotel was amazing! After we had a great tour of the hotel we walked the skyways to the Upper Mid-West Hospitality Show! It was a good chance to walk around and look at some awesome vendors, along with great samples of goodies! We then returned back to our hotel for an afternoon of being lazy and hanging around the hotel; later that evening we had a seminar on front desk operations and sanitation. We then enjoyed a sweet buffet of lots of food; along with a whole food island dedicated to desserts, now let me tell you that was worth the trip alone!! That evening we had free time to go swimming and hang out with our friends. It was a great way to relax and have some fun!
Our 3rd and final day we got to sleep in a little bit and after we got up and got packed and headed off to the Mall of America. As we arrived we had 4 hours to shop, so we all took off in all sorts of directions.. Lots of walking and lots of fun stores, I think all of the girls enjoyed it but for the boys not so much! ha-ha. We then took off for our destination of Esterville and Emmetsburg. On the long drive back we watched "Home Alone" and all took naps. I personally layed of the floor of the bus and fell asleep immediately. We got back to E'burg and the weather was soo warm, I was amazed! All in all it was a great trip and I'm very glad I went.
Now that I am back to E'burg and back in school all the time its back to the average day of being a hotel/restaurant student.. what can I say, its the life!
