Super Troopers


 Sunday, April 2 was a weird day.  Back to the Fairmont for another night.  Hoping to be out a 7AM.  Ashley and Katie share the sofa bed.  Kari, Gracie  and I crammed into a queen bed.  That arrangement makes perfect senses, right.  Put the littlest person with the two biggest people.  Little did I know I was trying to sleep next to a whirling dervish of flopping and twisting.  At around 2 AM, I woke up grabbed Gracie and turned her 90 degrees cause she had spun an out her head on Kari and her feet all over me.  Overall, it was still better than sleeping at the airport.  At 4:30 AM we sprang for bed to get to the airport for our 7 AM flight.  Only to be met in the lobby by our new friends, Bill and Cathy, who informed us the flight was rescheduled until 11.  A few phone calls, some angry to American, taxi company and the Bell stand.  The Anseth went back to bed until 7:11. Some got up and ate the buffet, some slept in.  We left the resort at 7:45.  This allowed us to see the early Lava Man Triathlon competitor but not be delayed by them crossing the road at the bike turnaround.  8:15 was the airport, checking when as smoothly as possible.  We use a $100 voucher at the store in the airport.  Lots of Diet Pepsi and frozen ice cream treats for breakfast but we used it all.  

 
One of the few things that went our way.

These girls are tired and grumpy
 
 
Surprisingly, this girl was a very angry and want answers.  She want us moved up to first class, wanted our room covered and wanted some answers.

Finally we left Hawaii.  The flight was smooth.  The crew was well rested.  Once in Phoenix, we received another $60 dollar voucher.  This occurred because my wife of a player and pleasantly complained.  We had a free dinner and cheesecake.  Now it is just a matter of getttibf on our 11:59 PM flight back to the mighty Minneapolis/St Paul.

 
Not even cheesecake and wine could smooth out these rough edges.

Grace wants to get home right Meow. 

We landed in Minneapolis at 4:55.  The Uber driver had us home by 6:10 AM.  The girls went to bed.  Kari empties the bags and started doing laundry.  I showered and headed to the hospital to start working at 7:30.  At the end of the day, we were all still tired but starting to reset on central time.  Great vacation can't wait to do it again.  Where should we go next?
