So Duluth was the destination of the weekend.
We got off to a bit of a late start (surprising, I know... I'm usually so timely)
Anyway, started for Duluth leaving from my parents in Chisago.
Unfortunately I forgot about the road construction going into Wyoming.
We decided to just drive through anyway... I mean, it was the middle of the night, no harm in that.. right?
Wrong.
See the road is all torn up... and that leaves a lot of dirt behind.
Now, when you have a dirt road, then you add in rain, you get A LOT of mud.
Add in a junky car with bad tires... well, you get the picture.
We were VERY happy to make it through that one.
Mission: Complete.
The journey to Duluth continued.
Then we ran into more road construction on 35 north.
Driving north on a Friday night, in the rain, through road construction, with only one lane of the freeway open.
Not. Fun. At. All.
Once we got through road construction we had to pull over and get some caffeine. duh.
So finally, after 3 hours of driving (ridiculous, I know) we finally made it to Duluth!
Mission: Complete.
The next few days were definitely less exciting.
Mostly just hanging out.
We went to the mall on Saturday while Bjorn was at work.
We drank some delicious coffee... of course.
We bought fake tattoos... of course.
We sang songs and skipped... of course.
Once we got back to the apartment, we didn't have to wait long for Bjorn to get off work.
Then we showed him.
They were the most magnificent fake tattoos that anyone ever had ever seen.
Taylor and I went first.
A panther and a pirate... of some sorts.
Mission (for the girls): Complete.
The boys followed.
Their tattoos weren't nearly as cool as ours.
Probably because they just aren't as tough... you know.
Mission (for the boys): Complete.
So all in all the weekend was a success.
We got to see our good buddies.
We got fake tattoos.
What more could you want out of a Duluth weekend trip?
