Oktoberfest

If you’re going to drink beer, buy a ticket to the tents, the bier gardens were taken up well before we arrived for the opening! If you’re too cheap, arrive at around 8am (or earlier!) and be prepared to sit a while; the fest opens at noon. :) Even if you can’t get a seat in one of the open-entry beir gardens, Munich is still a great place to wander around. And there’s always the monastary and the Pauliner Haufbrauhaus!

Was there in ‘87 and ‘88….was stationed in Wolfgang, right outside Hanua. Loved it, loved Germany. Miss it and want to get back there. Have a good friend in Wurzburg. Need to get over to see him.

Prost!

the country where my family is from…and a lot of beer. something about those rolling green hills, or rolling down those rolling green hills, and a lot of beer, from the country where my family is from.

Been here twice: 1998 und 2006. Loved it.
