    Eh, found a Best Western 3 miles away for $500 for four nights. Probably the best deal I will get at this point.

      Not sure what your price ceiling is SB, but I would suggest staying in downtown Minneapolis, and riding the Green Line between Gov't Center and St. Paul. Still rates under $200/nt for FF weekend. I can vouch for the Hilton, it's solid, but there are several other options.

      EDIT: Well, there you go. As for the distance, that's what Uber/Lyft is for.

        For the 2011 F4, the Crowne was $200/night w/parking, shared a room. Cheaper and more convenient than driving to StP every day for four days (the parking prices def played a part).

        This year, not cost-effective enough for me to do that.

        Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

          So I'm at a Nachtmarket festival on the eve of assumption day.

          It's like the Minnesota state fair here except the food, beer, and music doesn't suck.

          They have bacon, beer, and whiskey stands.

              Our main contact here was telling us about how his wife and him go to the one in Marienplatz. It sounds amazing.

              I told my boss I'd be willing to take a nine-month to a year-long project starting no later than the last week in April and go through Christmas.

                Air fares are going down starting next week. I just found san diego to tokyo for 411 on air canada and lax to tokyo on delta, for 610. try a few web sites for comparisons. Try Secret Flying, google flights or points guys. all of them are good alternatives.

                                If the food and beer you're consuming at the state fair sucks, you're eating the wrong food, and drinking the wrong beer.
