I went to dinner at 5pm at Seven on 6th Street and 1st Avenue.
It was slightly spitting with rain again when I went there, but it's only one block away.
I had the filet steak on the bone with a sauce, except the waiter forgot to order the sauce, so he then went to order it, and took it off my bill and also offered me an extra side of crab meat. He also offered me a dessert on the house, which I took him up on. At the end, he asked if I'd like a coffee and when I asked for a cappuccino, he apologised and said their machine was broken, so I could have any other coffee free too. So all on all, I had about $20 off my dinner!
Unfortunately, it was still raining when I left. I asked the waiter where the nearest Skyway entrance was, because once I could get into the walkway system, I could make my way around to the hotel, which is also on the Skyway. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the entrance and ended up getting more wet and walked & run a lot further than I would have done if I'd just nipped back directly.
Today, rather than going along to the stadium, I stayed in my hotel room, watching the rain continue to fall, and inevitably, after an hour or so, the game was postponed until tomorrow - which is a problem as I won't be here to attend it. In the past, the Twins have allowed exchanges for same-priced tickets, or the value of the old ticket to be put towards the cost of a new ticket. Hopefully, this will apply to any ticket for next year.
It's a shame to end my holiday on a damp note (again!) but I have seen 15 games, and now I have a chance to pack carefully (and hope that security won't want to have it all out again like they did in San Francisco!)
