Terminal 7Delta Airline flight 5739E75 what
a mouth full.
The next stage of our journey is Minnesota and Minneapolis
our destination.
Another two-hour plus flight and a cab ride
to the Hilton Hotel at St Pauls International airport.
22:30hours and finally we are in our room
and settled. A quick trip to the bar and then back to our room to crash.
Due to not spending all our allocated time
in both Japan and India , we decide to spend a couple of days here
in Minneapolis
and just chill and recharged the batteries.
I slept like a baby.
The bed was warm and cosy, like being with
a woman.
When my tired body did awaken from its
slumber, I didn’t want to get up. I just wanted to lay there and enjoy the
warmth, the softness and the tranquillity of the whole experience.
I wished Crystal were here to enjoy this.
“I’m hungry.” The voice of my mate and companion
on this journey brought me back to reality.
“Come on get up Steve. Get showered and
ready for the best brekkie in town.”
Begrudgingly I left the comfort of my bed
and headed for the bathroom.
“CC Club on Lynsdale Ave does a mean breakfast mate
and I mean it is GOOD!”
He enters from the bathroom butt naked and
smelling so sweet as only, he can.
“Get a move on Steve. Time is a wasting.”
All I can do is grunt.
Showered shaved and smelling like a metro
we head off to the CC Club.
Jumping into a taxi it doesn’t seem to take
long before we are getting out and heading into what looks like a heritage
building sitting on the corner of two streets.
“Steak, eggs, bacon and toast with a pot of
tea for me coffee for my mate here.”
It didn’t take long to order from the vast
menu.
“Bloody cheap too aye mate.” Kev is beaming
and drooling at the thought of a hearty breakfast.
I keep forgetting old Kev has travelled all
over the world and knows the best places to eat and drink.
To coin an American phrase! “Oh My GOD!”
The meal was bloody well enormous and good
grief was it tasty and so enjoyable. Obviously, I couldn’t finish mine so Kev
obliged and finished what I left, the man has no shame and no end to the
bottomless pit called his stomach.
