Nice!

I live in Lowertown, if you'd like a beer on a local, PM me.

I thought you lived in random places around the world? :laugh:

I work in Lowertown. Definitely like it.

Definitely!

Just so I am clear, Lowertown is somewhere around Union Depot and CHS Stadium?

Yup, that's the general area, going a little farther west, though I'm not sure what the boundary is.

Pretty much the same. Just arrived in St. Paul after around 19 hours of trains and flights.

Enjoy - The temperature got cold shortly before your arrival.

Mall of America is way too big. My poor wallet and my poor legs.

I got home 3 weeks ago from a long trip where I was out of the country like 13 of 14 weeks since June, (Romania, Scotland, Amsterdam, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, London, Sweden, Germany, Portugal and London again) so I could sell my house and buy this new condo. Took on a new project that will have me stateside a little more it appears. And I am tired of all the travel, hotel rooms and airplanes. I have flown 275,000 miles this year, it wears even thus 26 year old out.

That was crazy lol.

Currently in Minneapolis. I actually like this city more than St. Paul, I feel like the downtown area has more to offer. I like St. Paul as well, don't get me wrong.

Locals don't go there much these days lol
I haven't been there myself in like 5 years, and I work like two blocks away from it! :laugh:

St Paul has charm, Minneapolis has everything else. :nod:

I prefer St. Paul when it comes to downtown as I like the size and it feels cleaner to me in MOST places. MSP has more to it, no doubt but I prefer the quiter part of town.

If I lived here I could see St Paul being nicer.

For a visitor, Minneapolis feels more convenient.

I prefer living in the south suburbs and only going to either when I have events to go to. :laugh:

Same, besides working in St Paul. I basically never go to Minneapolis.

Pazzaluna was probably the best restaurant I've been to in my life.

Also, there was Price, Weber and a bunch of Habs players sitting at a table right next to us.

They did, I said no. Man needs to dine in peace.

I was there last week. I love that place.

I know St Paul Grill is #1 on TripAdvisor, but I actually liked Pazzaluna better.

Edinburgh is awesome! London was cool, but this city is sweet. So much interesting architecture and history. We toured the Castle of Edinburgh too, which was fascinating. We have two more days to explore this city, I'm excited to see more of it!

Lapa · Nov 3, 2017

Last night in St Paul, long flight home tomorrow.

Absolutely loved the Twin Cities, highly recommend for anyone thinking of visiting. Thanks for all the tips on what to see and do, hopefully next time I'll have time to meet some of the local HFWild posters!

It was also cool to see some Habs players live. As I wrote this, Joel Quenneville walked into our hotel bar we are sitting in and took some photos with the fans.

Also, I'lll miss Surly Furious. You guys have an amazing beer selection :laugh:

Glad you enjoyed your trip, and at least got 1 good game out of two!

Yep. If they laid eggs in both games, we might have had to revoke your fan card, or ban you from the X. :laugh:

Have a safe flight home.

Did you keep the orange hat? :sarcasm:

I really wanted to throw it on a hat trick, but that wasn't even close to happening. :laugh:

Speaking of which, I've never witnessed a Wild hat trick live. How many people throw them down from the upper deck?
