| The Alps near Berchtesgaden. |
Once again, I will spend much of the fall season on vacation in Germany. No, this extended trip has little to do with chess. Instead, my parents and I plan to spend time with family and old friends in the
shadows of the grandiose Alps. The itinerary includes a day among the throngs of tourists at the real
Oktoberfest--gleefully singing while drinking beer by the mug and devouring 2-foot-wide soft pretzels!
Despite the change in scenery, I usually begin to miss sunny California after a few weeks. Fortunately, I expect to have reliable internet access. And I might even get to push wood at the
Traunstein Chess Club.
Schachmatt!
