It was a good day

Last weekend we’ve finally been to the Oktoberfest in Munich. All day on the way there I was extremely excited (maybe scared, too) and when M said we have to eat at Burger King before meeting everyone at the Schützenfestzelt I knew it was going to be one of those days…

The Wiesn was FULL. People everywhere. Inside the tents, outside on the streets. Drunk people. Incredible. Even I was expecting it it was hard to believe. There were many many fun rides like this merry-go-round up in the sky and a free-fall tower (which we rode on Saturday and that made my heart miss several beats).

The tents are really nice outside. The Spatenbräu had moving figurines roast a pig. Very nice.

And here.. in the middle of the day drunk people lying everywhere taking a nap. But honestly… I liked that better than having them on the street being rude to others.

Our tent was the Schützenfestzelt that was almost full when we arrived.

Right in front of the Bavaria statue.

The starter menu.

And me with my first Mass with one of my Mass-Bands that I’ve sold in September. Throughout the night I drank 3 Mass. I still can’t believe that. After dinner we all stood on the benches and danced and sang to the songs the band played. Gosh that was FUN.

Since I’m so tiny and people were all so tall I wasn’t able to make such great pictures. I only could take pictures of things that were above me. Which made me realize they had very nice signs leading to the public restrooms.

Being short is not always a disadvantage I guess :-)

That was our Wiesn experience. I would go there again but ONLY if we had a reservation for a table. The place is just too packed and I couldn’t stand in the middle of the tent all night doing nothing but avoid other people’s elbows. But overall it was great and fun and another check on something I haven’t done before.
