Prost!

Our 4 days in Germany at Oktoberfest were great - sooo much fun. Oktoberfest is nuts, but fantastic. We drank lots of beer, ate yummy German food, met brilliant new people from all around the world, sung songs, dressed up as beer wenches (not the boys), christened ourselves with new German names, and generally had a blast. We visited three beer tents all up over the Friday, Saturday and Sunday - the Hofbrauhaus, the Paulaner and the Lowenbrau. Sunday was the biggest day, when we got to the tent bright and early at 10am to grab a table (sharing with our Brit lad friends), and arrived back at the hostel around midnight after dancing and partying the night away. We also found time to visit a beer hall in the city on the Saturday for some pork knuckle and potato dumplings, and a quick meal at the Hofbrauhaus in the city before departing on the Monday. Photos below (in no particular order).
Next trip is when I fly to Vienna all on my lonesome to meet one of my best mates from home, before Dave joins us in Budapest. We are also currently booking our new years trip - we will be ringing in 2009 in Copenhagen, Denmark (after discarding Lapland and Russia as, sadly, too expensive). Will update again soon.
Love to all.
