Attendee Update
We officially have a new attendee for this year (play the theme song from Jeopardy).
Flying Dan has acquired airline tickets and will join us for the Amsterdam, Bamberg, München portion of the trip. A hearty Prost is in order.
Also, I have tentatively annointed my sister, Dee, with the moniker of Dee Rieslinger. This may change, but it is in homage to her taste for sweet wine. We might even wait until the trip completes to officially choose. Maybe a classic event will name her through devine intervention. Something like Lost in Space 😄

The Schedule for 2024
Chugger, Designated Walker and a yet to be "crowned with a moniker" family member will arrive in Munich on 23 September with departure for Slovenia on 26 September. A short time indeed, but plenty of time for fun and revelry with one newbie.
The newbie is my sister, so any suggested monikers will be considered..
Prost!

The 2024 Visit
While not necessarily an official group visit, there will be participation in this year's festivities. Chugger, Designated Walker and Chugger's sister (handle to be determined) will visit for 3 days on the way from Bamberg to Slovenia. The entire trip will start in Amsterdam to visit with Barbus and Schlumberger Lady, then train ourselves south.
Others are invited if you desire. Flying Dan is a hopefull.

This is interesting....
From the official Oktoberfest Web Site:
... "For the first time, hosts will have online portals where unused reservations can be exchanged or sold at the original price. An important step to push back the gray market, where thousands of euros were often asked for a table. 20 medium-sized and large gastronomic businesses have already opted for the Oktoberfest-Booking.com portal as a solution."
