I have the proper leather shoes to wear along with my proper socks and leather shorts, but, as you can imagine, those were going to be less comfortable with all my feet issues. I sacrificed fashion for the ability to walk. I'm glad that I wasn't the worst of the lot though!

So to recap, the Germans look like Germans and it's a ton of fun. You should all come next year. I will want to reserve a table. Tickets start to go on sale in February. I'll probably get a table and then hand out tickets on a FCFS basis.

Some numbers: 6.4 M people visited Oktoberfest (including kids, non-drinkers) and 6.9 M liters of beer were sold over the 16 days. I estimated based on tent capacity that on a full night, there are easily 100,000-120,000 people on the grounds at one time.

It is nice to go back to normal for a bit. Italy is striking this coming weekend so we canceled our trip. Instead, we are renting a truck and going to IKEA on Saturday. I am taking off work on Monday to continue to construct whatever it is that we buy. On Friday night I am taking Kate to a highly touted ribs place to get elbow deep in BBQ sauce and meat for our anniversary. I couldn't be more excited about the latter.
