I'm not sure exactly when I'm arriving in Munich Saturday afternoon, but I will probably be at the Bratwurstherz'l am Victualienmarkt for Nurnbergerwürstchen and Bier vom Holzfaß between 1700 and 1800, and from there relaxing at the nearby biergarten (page 68 in the hymnal).

It's supposed to be warm and partly cloudy in Munich on Sunday, perfect Biergarten weather! We can probably meet at the Augustiner Biergarten at Arnulfstraße 52 Sunday afternoon. For out-of-towners, it's relatively easy to find. If you're downtown, start facing the Hauptbahnhof, then take the street going by the side of the train station on your right - that's Arnulfstraße. Walk along the right sidewalk, through the crossroads (Seidlstr.) and continue up the street until you see trees and stuff on the right side of the street. That's the beer garden. About a ten minute stroll from the Bahnhof, less if you're really thirsty.

I'll plan to be there at 1300 Sunday afternoon, sitting on the "self-service" side, probably reading a book. For those of you who haven't met me or don't remember, I'm tall, a bit "stout," with a short white beard. I'll be wearing a hat - blue baseball cap with "Beer - It's not just for breakfast anymore" on it or a white round floppy hat with brim.

Also, I'll have a cell phone, 0170-560-6975.

Hope to see you there. (This doesn't have to involve a large expenditure of energy. We can just sit in the shade of the chestnut trees and chat, and go get refilled mugs of Edelstoff (or Schorle) as needed and a haxen when the spirit moves us. A great way to while away a Summer Sunday afternoon.)
