Personal essay about my only foray into sports.
Where's My Pretzel?
We were on our honeymoon - a sixteen-day train trip to five countries in Europe. Munich was our second stop. We were influenced by our love of the film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. Phil and I scouted the filming sites as part of our visit, but timing worked out that we would see the world-famous Oktoberfest as well. I grew up having visited the second-largest Oktoberfest in Kitchener-Waterloo. Bragging to my family during the holidays about our visit would be as delicious as the forthcoming beer, pretzels and chocolates.
