I am going to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN next week and I’m told I could expect to be there up to 10 days. From my searching, it seems like there is very little to do in Rochester and I have a feeling I’ll have plenty of down time, so I would love some suggestions of what I can do other than sit in my AirBnB with my notebook.

There are some issues which will restrict what I can do and that won’t help-

The weather is not supposed to be great there next week, so outside things are probably not a possibility, and doing something like driving up to Minneapolis probably won’t be realistic.

I’m not really an athletics/sports person and I do drink alcohol, but it’s probably not a good idea for me to since I’ll be getting medical tests, so those areas probably won’t work either.

Finally, I’m going to the Mayo Clinic due to an undiagnosed disorder where I can’t eat solid foods, so unfortunately, restaurants are also not doable.

Anything else I’m interested in. It looks like there’s an art museum, but I’m guessing it isn’t very big. It looks like there is a trolley to ride around on, but I’m guessing that doesn’t exactly take a long time either. I also see that there’s a Spam museum (as in the meat, not the email thing) in a town not too far away that I might visit- it’s gotta be weird as hell.

But I can’t find much else.

    Though UR is a pretty big medical system and school. Being known for Garbage Plates though is pretty funny.
