Oktoberfest

September 26-29

Oktoberfest! I am pretty behind on my blog so pictures will have to do for now.

Friday
-After an 8 hour car ride throughout the night we arrived at the stoke travel campsite at 9 a.m. Greeted with a beer, we waited in line to check in and got a delicious breakfast.....cold hot dogs, scrambled eggs, white bread, and goop. 
- At around 12 we headed out of the campsite to the Oktoberfest Festival. We walked right into the Haufbrau tent no problem! Got a table and started drinking our steins.
-At 3:30--I met mom, dad, Terese, and Dan outside the tent and we got a table outside under the heaters. Immediately we ordered more beers and big pretzels. We sat and drank for hours! Finally around 8 we made it into the tent where Sweet Caroline played and we had a great time the rest of the night.
-Devyn and I got a little lost on the way back but we made it to the campsite and fell asleep at around 11!


Saturday
-We had every intention of waking up early and getting to the festival on the biggest day of the year but that did not happen. 
-We stopped for a big breakfast at an Ikea like store and sat there for a long time because it was so warm and we did not feel like drinking yet. 
-I met my parents at 1 and we walked around the entire festival. 
- Dad, Devyn, and I went on a ride which was awesome. It had such high views you could see the entire city.
-Haleigh, Devyn and I then pushed our way through the Hofbrau tent for an hour trying to get in on Saturday afternoon.
-We met kids studying abroad in Barcelona from Bentley. One kid was from Coutuit,
-We stuck our way into the tent at night by making friends with the waitresses and going under the rope. They took us through the back kitchen and we were in!
-I met so many different people from all over the world it was so cool.

Sunday
-We woke up and gathered our stuff together to head to starbucks for some American coffee. I met up with my parents and went to the Old Town which was really pretty.
