Klaus' Oktoberfest, 26 Sep 2004

Apparently, Oktoberfest is supposed to occur *before* October. Who knew? Well, Klaus did, since he's German... It was a nice work party of beer and sausages, which were all quite tasty and enjoyable. And nobody seemed to mind that I wasn't drinking and instead was taking pictures...

Early Minglers
JC, Alek, Galina (Alexander's Mom), Alek's Wife, Alexander, David, Jim, and Mike.
Grillin' Deyu
Someone had to do it, I guess.
Sausages
Veal sausage! Mmm...
The Hazards of Auto-Focus
It decided to focus on the branch, and not Klaus. Grr. (I already deleted another shot that focused on some shoulders...)
"Let the party commence!"
Klaus opens the festivities, with Stoyanov and his wife.
Piles of Wine
Well, cider, apparently.
Batch of Students
Yi, Marcos, Sharlene
Dinner Table
So much to eat!
Dinner Table, Other Side
I really liked the liver cheese stuff. Mmm.
Paul
Of course, his presence made it too easy to talk about work.
Rosemary Eating Meat
I love the facial expression.
Tim
Not bad.
Asako and Klaus
Asako was in my high school class, but what I was really taking the shot of was the "Klaus" stein.
Random Group
Toasting after talking tech. It happens.
Sitting Minglers
At least Alexander saw me.
Tim and Marcos
I think it was Eduardo that borrowed the camera(?).
Julio and Betsy
Not too bad a shot.
Actual Posing
Paying attention to the camera? Whaa? (Barry, Rosemary, Eduardo, Tim, Sharlene, Emad)
More Grilling
Time for another round of meat!
Grilling, Round II
Julio's going to grill this time.
Sharlene
I wanted to get a decent shot of her, since so many shots of her turned out blurry; this will do.
Double-Fisting Rosemary
I think that the 1.16L of beer she was supposed to be drinking did strange things to her...
