So our anniversary was this last week. Josh DID book a room at the Blue Boar Inn in Midway. I was very excited! He showed me the suite he had booked ($298) I didn't think that was worth paying for one night, so I called and changed the room to a "less expensive" ($175) one. I had previously told him I wanted to go somewhere that had a really elegant suite type room... So since I also mentioned I wanted to go to the Blue Boar Inn (Only from hearing about it on Good Things Utah, and not seeing pictures of the rooms) He tried to do both. (even though it looked like grandma's house)
He also purchased the Hot Air Balloon ride with it (another $200+) which I was REALLY excited about!
We arrived at the Inn Wednesday afternoon. When we were taken to the room the girl was telling us about breakfast, and asked if we wanted dinner in the restaurant. When she was telling us about the breakfast she said that we needed to be ready for the Balloon ride a little before 8 am. So we would have to do breakfast after.

(there were "Happy Anniversary Balloons ready for us)
After we brought our stuff from the car to the room, we took off to find some lunch/dinner.
We ended up walking up and down Park City's Main street four times before we could both decide on a place. After I accumulated 6 blisters on my feet from not wearing socks, we ate at Bandits. A place we ate when we went down for Josh's birthday 3 years ago.

When we got back, I soaked my feet while Josh went down to make sure that everything was all set up for the Balloon ride in the morning. (They now told us that they would come get us between 6:30-7 am for the Balloon) Also... before we went to Park City, the girl had mentioned leaving the key at the front desk and they would do a "turn down" for when we got back. We thought a turn down was changing the sheets... why? we hadn't even touched the bed yet! So when he came back from asking about the ride...
They sent him with the rose they would have put on the bed if we would have known.
Thinking that it was a little early to have to wake up for a getaway... we set our alarm for 6.
We waited and waited for them to come get us, or call... At 8 we went to eat. We headed down to the restaurant.

After breakfast Josh checked again about the balloon. They said they would call us when they heard anything from the balloon operator.... to be continued -->

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!! It is a bummer when things don't go as planned. So do you have to go back to take advantage of the 1hr ride?? You are so silly not to know what a turn down service is. At least you got your rose. I am glad you had an eventful weekend. We have been going crazy not being able to get a hold of you. Get your phone working!!
