I have to say that the San Diego Nationals was one of the nicest I have ever attended.   The Fall nationals is normally one of the smaller ones (and also not my favorite, because there is no long team event -- like the Spingold or the Vanderbilt.)   But this nationals was in an amazing setting with great bridge players from all around the world.   

Almost 13,000 tables is also an amazing turnout!   Well done ACBL!

I'm in Atlanta this week working on some teaching documents for my students and writing other articles and book material -- but I'll update a hand or two from the tournament soon...
