On a trip like this, you get to check a lot
of things off your bucket list. For me, one of those time was to go to
Oktoberfest in Munich, Germany. I've always loved Oktoberfest celebrations,
even when I was a kid. I liked the festive autumn atmosphere, and the German
music and food, and when I got older, it was a fun place to enjoy a giant glass
of beer as well. Oktoberfest celebrations are popular in the US as they are all
over the world, but I wanted to see the original one myself.
And so we went to Munich in the middle of
Oktoberfest. I had an idea of what to expect because Doug spent a night at
Munich's Oktoberfest about 15 years ago, but the reality of it is so much
bigger than I could ever have imagined.
