Saturday Shorts:

Ft. Myers Travel Tips?

As you know, I will be traveling early on Tuesday morning from Minneapolis to Ft. Myers. I should be landing just in time to get to Hammond Stadium for the Twins game. I will be there until an early Sunday morning direct flight brings me back to Minnesota. While in Florida, I’ll be hanging out with fellow Twins bloggers Nick Nelson, Parker Hageman, Topper Anton and Andrew Bryz-Gornia. Who else will be down there?  As previously mentioned, we will be hosting a Twins Fan get-together (or, Tweet-Up) after the Tuesday afternoon Twins game at Potts Sports Bar, just down the road from the stadium. So, if you’re going to be down there, stop by!

So, how many of you have been to Ft. Myers for Spring Training? I was there in passing for about 20 minutes about 10 years ago, so I am looking forward to the trip where the primary purpose is Twins camp. As I spend time this weekend packing for the trip and thinking of what I need to bring with me, I would love to hear any advice that those who have been there before would be willing to share. I know some of you go every year. Maybe some of you have been there once or twice. Maybe others have never been there and aren’t sure what to expect.

Please feel free to share stories, but also please share any tips or tricks that Twins fans need to know before going to Ft. Myers for spring training.
