Wiesn aka Oktoberfest!

I have never seen such an amazing event as Oktoberfest (or Wiesn as its called in Germany)...

14 beer "tents" (actually huge buildings), rollercoasters, great food, masses of beer, loud music, and over 6 million new friends- it truely was outstanding. Everyone sings and dances on the tables and benches, you make friends with everyone around you, people are dressed in traditional Lederhosen for the men, and Dirndl's for the women. And you cheers every ten minutes :)

PLUS I got the special treat of this year being the celebrations 200th anniversary! This year Wiesn was bigger, better, and longer than ever.

Such a great time..
PROAST! (cheers)

München

WOW...

I'm in love with Munich, Germany.

The city is amazing, a lot of people, big- but not too big. Nice people, Bavarian culture, music, and food. In the center of the city there is a HUGE 'English Garden' where people walk/run, play games, eat, drink, swim in the river/lay on the beach, swim in the big canal network, even go surfing! In the canal out from under a bridge the water makes one big, continuous wave- which is filled with surfers taking their turn to jump on.

The city itself is really beautiful with nice buildings, and really takes care of itself; I even saw one building that they were renovating so they covered the whole front of it with this big canvas picture of what the building looks like, so you dont have to see the construction!

Beautiful city, people, fun times, and of course... OKTOBERFEST

Cheers
