We went to Munich, Germany to "Oktoberfest". Basically it's a big fair full of tents with German food, beer and fair rides. Oktoberfest is known for it's fun atmosphere, amazing beer, and good food. It sure was fun touring around with three of our amazing couple friends.
When we got there, we thought we could go into one of the beer tents, grab a seat and order some food, little did we realize you were suppose to reserve a seat. Squeezing past all the people as we entered "our first beer house" made us realize we should have reserved ahead of time. Well, we were glad to actually "see" the inside of the beer house and experience the singing and enjoyment of distinctive food, it sure would have been better if we could have actually tasted the food that we heard so much about, but still glad to experience it in some way. Nonetheless, we enjoyed standing (literally standing while eating) outside of the beer house at some little food joint, eating some kind of meat with some kind of rice. It was food that filled the tummy and we thought dinner would be much better, the famous Hofbrauhaus House. I would have to say dessert was the yummiest part of our lunch, but it's hard to beat chocolate covered strawberry's and grapes on a stick. Yummy! After walking around and looking at all the different beer houses and ginormous horses carrying barrels of beer, we decided to try some of the rides. It was so expensive we went on two rides and walked around the rest of the time. Once finished with rides, we walked around and found the Hofbrauhaus House. It was worth the walking and definitely worth the exhaustion to get there. Dinner was amazing and the atmosphere was just as pleasant. What great way to end the day!
The Hofbrauhaus House! Yummy!
This was on our way to the Hofbrauhaus House. When the clock struck at every full hour the little people would move around the circle.
