He&#8217;s here doing support for Getty Images, and there are teams of photographers going to most of the Rugby World Cup matches. I showed him how to get to the Oktoberfest, found him some computer parts for an mSATA drive, and recommended the pork bowl place (where I went again).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-9291\" src=\"https:\/\/www.i8u.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_4752-e1568807409810-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"474\" height=\"356\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.i8u.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_4752-e1568807409810-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.i8u.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_4752-e1568807409810-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.i8u.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_4752-e1568807409810-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.i8u.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_4752-e1568807409810-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-9292\" src=\"https:\/\/www.i8u.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_4756-e1568807475560-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"474\" height=\"356\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.i8u.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_4756-e1568807475560-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.i8u.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_4756-e1568807475560-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.i8u.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_4756-e1568807475560-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.i8u.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_4756-e1568807475560-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Basically just hung around the hotel and train station but I had some sort of purpose.
