Me and my Champion

Svienn and I had a very good trip to the Land of Wis and back. It was a nice change to only have to two people go on a trip and not have to worry about bending space and time to get everything in the vehicle. We happily threw our stuff in and took off. There was some blowing snow on the way up but not too bad and we made it to Eau Claire around 8pm. We called Wyndreth to let her know we made it and got invited over for soup. Neither of us know Eau Claire very well but we managed to make it over to her house eventually. Only 2 wrong turns. ;-P

Saturday we made our way to Chippewa Falls which was a little adventure since I had printed out directions from site to our hotel and not the other way around but we made it in a good amount of time. Nailz was a little late showing up but she made it. I am glad she could come. She is leaving for Japan on Wednesday for two weeks.

On the whole it was a nice relaxing event. Site was in a lovely old building over looking the city and the river. Feast was rather long but very tasty. I was utterly defeated by the amount of food. Despite being super full Nailz and I snagged some extra desert before we left. We got back to the hotel and just crashed. Sveinn headed back to Wyndreth's to spend sometime with his household.

Sunday we were lazy and got up late before heading over to Wyndreth's to pick up Sveinn. They usually have a big after event breakfast so we got in on that before heading home.

On the way back home we stopped at IKEA to pick up a few things and to poke around. We followed all the blue arrows so we got to see it all. Thankfully I had decided before we went that I was going to buy nothing and only look. Which worked out well. I only managed to get one bottle with a stopper.

The trip home was off and on foggy so that was rather crappy but we still made it home in a reasonable time.

As per usual, I have my photos posted on my flickr page.
