So far I have been to Spain, France, Switzerland, Germany, and the Czech Republic. What an adventure! Once I return back home and have time I will post a few more pictures. :)

As many of you may know, I am in Europe for a business trip.
Oktoberfest 2010 was absolutely a once in a lifetime experience (this was the 200th year). Can you believe they actually had a non-alcohol beer option? Pretty tasty too! And the Devil's Wheel ride (game?) is a MUST!! Oktoberfest may become a yearly event for me.

Beers
MGD 64
64 calories
2 g carbohydrates
2.8% alcohol
It’s right on the bottle: Only 64 calories. And it claims the number one spot over Beck’s Premier Light because it’s a little lower in alcohol content. And that’s the politically correct choice, right?
Michelob Ultra
95 calories
3 g carbohydrates
4.2% alcohol
Michelob was one of the first to market a “low-carb” beer. But here’s a secret: Almost all the low-calorie brews are relatively close in carb count. (Sam Adams Light and Yuengling Lager Light are the notable exceptions.) Just look at the label. Which is exactly what you should be doing for anything you eat and drink.
Guinness Draught
126 calories
10 g carbohydrates
4% alcohol
Perhaps the most surprising beer on this list. The great taste of Guinness but with a calorie-count in the range of a light beer.

Burning Man
Burning Man was again awesome! For anyone who hasn't been, look into it. It can be whatever you want it to be. For many it is a week-long party. For me it is a healing retreat.
Since I am nearby, I will be dancing at the Wild Orchid again September 8th-18th. :)
