24 Hours in Minneapolis, MN

For work this past weekend I went to Minneapolis, MN for a workshop.

My flight left Friday morning at 8:15am and we landed in MN at 4:45pm (local time) and we left Saturday at 4:45pm and landed back in CA at 9:15pm.

Yes, we were there for exactly 24 hours! 

It was insane!

There were 6 of us on this trip and one of our team got to MN on Thursday night.

We had a layover in Denver and I got my boots cleaned! I was very reluctant, but I gave in and I am very pleased with the results!

After

We landed and we took a taxi to the hotel. Unloaded our stuff and gout the ballroom ready for the workshop on Saturday morning.

We went to dinner at a restaurant called Seven. 

We got dinner and drinks on the roof top next to this beautiful fire.

Our dinner was delicious! It was nice and relaxing!

We headed back to the hotel bar and had a night cap or two ;-) and headed off to bed.

We woke up early the next morning, worked the workshop, packed up our things and left the hotel.

We decided we want to go to the Mall of America and on our way we stopped at a Minneapolis Historic site, the Stone Arch Bridge.

It was so picture-perfect!

After the bridge we headed to the Mall.

This place is unbelievable!

There are over 500 stores in this mall AND there is an amusement park!

There is also a lego land with incredible sculptures!

We ate lunch at Bubba Gumps and then headed to the airport to head home.

My first business trip with my job and I would say it was a fun, success!

I will leave you with the beautiful sunset that I saw on the plane headed from Denver to LA.

Happy Monday to all!
