The Marshall AirBnB

Because we didn’t know what this tournament would involve, we didn’t know what to expect. We also didn’t know to plan ahead with family. So, we traveled to Minneapolis and have the Marshall home to ourselves (they are vacationing in Seattle) and only see T-man for the games. 

On Saturday, the games were delayed due to rain so we didn’t need to be anywhere until mid-afternoon. Marshall and I had a lazy morning with our tea and coffee and walked to the taco truck for lunch. Marshall snuck in a nap before we took in the ultimate games in the afternoon. We selected ramen for our meal after some casual research. We also stopped at a
liquor store on the way home to ensure we had some wine with our meal. We hit the hay early as we were s recovering from the early Friday morning departure. 

On Sunday, I slept in past 9:00! What a great bed this Airbnb has! I ran to get coffee before we headed up to Blaine for the 10:45 game. The team came away with two victories to place 3rd in their bracket. Between games, Marshall and I walked across the street to a brewery for lunch (thanks to uncle Sean for the recommendation). 

After a 3rd game victory for the day, we stopped at Target and picked up fixings for dinner. Before cooking dinner, we played online pitch with D-man. It would have been nice to have him here, but he got some time in with his friend and girlfriend. We enjoyed cooking dinner in the beautiful Marshall kitchen. 

We wrapped up our weekend away working from the Marshall’s and catching a late flight home. I enjoyed a morning walk around the lake and Marshall and I took a stroll by the lake before dinner. 

What an unexpected weekend getaway with Marshall. Already looking forward to next year!
