This year we finally made it to the famous Oktoberfest in Munich. Obviously I had to get a traditional dress for this day.

We took the subway to the fairground.

Look at my dress. Doesn’t it look great!?

‘It looks like we are not the only ones who want to go to the Oktoberfest!’

Unbelievable how many people were there.

At first, we walked around a bit…

…and then I saw one of the famous beer halls. ‘Let’s go inside!’

Inside, we took this picture. It was way too crowded.

When we left the beer hall, someone gave me this huge pretzel.

Besides all the beer halls, we also saw lots of fun rides.

Then, it was time for lunch.

We found a nice and sunny place and it took not long…

…before I got a cold refreshing apple juice.

‘Mmmmhh, that’s good!’

They told me that they are out of fried flies. ‘Oh noooo…’

Instead, I got a typical Bavarian dish, called Roasted Ham Hock.

As you can see, it was nearly as good as fried flies.

Markus’ uncle Frank and I were happy (and stuffed.)

Thankfully, Iris, Markus’ cousin, carried me along.

We were looking for a souvenir…

…and found a booth full of gingerbread.

I took this one. ‘No way Conny, I won’t share it!’
It is impossible to visit the Oktoberfest without having a beer. The good thing is that you get plenty of beer at every corner.

‘Uh, that’s a big one!’

‘Uuuuaah, that’s too heavy for me.’

Conny helped me to empty the beer mug.
(This time, I even shared it.)

It was a loooot of beer.

The beer made us very happy and we had a lot of fun afterwards.

We really enjoyed our day on the Oktoberfest. I am sure, we will come again someday.

Kermit has custom clothes? That’s too charming. Did you make them yourselves?
The picture of him crying about the flies is my favorite. He’s so adorable.
