My phone crapped out during my first day at Oktoberferst in Germany. I figured it was the perfect excuse to "live in the real world" for the experience. I certainly did live in the real world. I also spent hours trying to find my travel buddies when we were inevitably separated. |

In the old days before cell phones, it was pretty common practice to set up with friends a meeting place in advance, and a schedule to gather there every so often. Something like "at noon, we'll meet up at this tree".
My friends and family have never stopped this habit -- it's just a nice backup plan in case one of us loses or damages their phone.
