Weekend in Duluth

We recently took a mini vacation to Duluth and, while Adam and I definitely had a great time, no one had more fun than Ellen! For EVB, the highlights included:
  • Greeting the mounted fish, stuffed geese and bearskin in the hotel lobby
  • Riding the hotel elevator (or as Ellen calls it, "elligator")
  • Checking out the pop machine down the hall from our hotel room (she didn't drink any, but was intrigued by the big buttons!)
  • Sleeping in a big girl bed for the first time
  • Watching "Fraggle Rock" ("Frito Rocket" in Ellen lingo) on loan from the hotel front desk
  • Visiting the aquarium where she saw fish, ducks and snakes, played with little boats and went down a big slide in the play area
  • Eating at multiple restaurants
It was a super fun getaway and the weather couldn't have been better. Can't wait for our next trip as a family!


EVB slept almost the entire way to Duluth!
