We have realized that Rochester, MN is pretty boring on the weekends. We had a lovely Sunday breakfast at a place called Pannekoeken. That's Dutch for pancake. It was like an eggy pancake that was baked rather than done on a pan on the stove. I had one with bacon in it. Not too bad. Leslie had one with fresh cut strawberries on it and a sour cream/brown sugar glaze. That was good too.
Apparently the town shuts down on the weekends because there are no patients at Mayo. There ARE things to do though. There is something called Pedal Pub, which for 350 for a group of 8 for 2 hours will allow you to pedal a bar through the streets of Rochester. There is a keg of beer on board so it looks like fun. The 350 is enough to keep us on the ground though. There are also Segway tours but 40 for 2 hours is a bit more than we want to pay.
We did meet nice people the other night from North Dakota. We are meeting them tonight in the bar for happy hour at our hotel bar.
Please pray that when we get to the 17th floor of the Gonda Building tomorrow at 7:30am, someone has cancelled and they have an appointment for us. Thank goodness our hotel is nice.
Yesterday's trip to the Mall of America was sorta fun. I can't believe that I spent 4 and a half hours in a friggin' mall. The highlights for me were riding on the roller coaster and getting a cheap pair of shorts from the Macy*s.
