5:50 a.m. jill wakes me up. in straight zombie mode i carry my bags to the car, we hit the road, and i'm back asleep in no time. yeah jill drove. not to mention drove back too. my girlfriend is awesome.
12:25ish p.m.
we get to aloft hotel. sweet place. stylish and modern. bar right when you walk in. pool table. lounge. pool. shuffle board. everything you want. later in the evening we were havin some drinks and playin bags! yeah it's like that. ten outta ten. two thumbs up.
1:30ish: dropped off our stuff in the room. right in front of the king size... a 40 inch hd plasma. awesome! the view was equally awesome. that's the metrodome on the left peeking behind that building. the blue jays were in town playin the twinkies.
that's a sushi spot we went to after the show on wednesday. the bartender was a d-bag and there were loud annoying twins fans who were there after the game right next to us. big up to my man justin morneau for killin for Night Outfit!
back to day one... we were off to explore the city. minneapolis is cleaner than most cities i've been to, which was a nice surprise. not to mention it was absolutley GORGEOUS out. jill met lucy.
we hit up some restaurant downtown. headed back to the telly. relaxed and drank some wine. we moved downstairs to the bar where we played bags. jill whooped my ass. we swam. had some drinks in the hot tub. went outside and found this awesome park right next to aloft. it's named Gold Medal Park. why? i'm not sure, but i guessed maybe in honor of winter olympic medalists from minnesota? who knows. this pic doesn't do it justice but blue lights accented benches around the park and lights were in the actual walkway that led to the top of a hill that gave a perfect 360 view of the city.
we headed back and passed out by midnight or so.
stay tuned for when all the cool shit happens! like the cold war kids, carne asada, prince (really), first avenue and... quasimoto?
