Munich II - Oktoberfest


Saturday, September 20, 2014

Breakfast time! 


Oktoberfest parade in the rain! We met a local and her daughter who were super nice. With them was a girl visiting them from Greece. Beth, she reminded me so much of Anna!
 

 

After the parade we walked to the Oktoberfest grounds and totally lucked out! We found seats at a table outside the Hofbrauhaus tent! The rule is: No seat, no service.  We met James and Jackie from Toronto and Amy and Vinni from Florida (Vinni is in the air force and they currently live in Germany).


 


Jackie had a camera on a stick that really made me laugh! We've seen them all over Europe so it was fun to meet someone who had one :)


We ate 1/2 chicken and a pretzel. A chicken literally chopped in half and cooked then served. Pretty sweet!


 Swing time with James and Jackie! 


 



 

Dinner at Augustiner Braustuben (thanks for the suggestion Keith)! We ordered Weiner Schnitzel :) hehe

We spent the morning in Marienplatz. Walked down Kaufingerstrasse (all the shops were closed though because it was Sunday). Went inside St. Peters Church and listened to the Glockenspiel chime as 32 life size figures reinacted historical Bavarian events.


 

Lunch in the English Garden at Seahaus Beer Garden. 



 

It started raining again on our way home so we decided to stop at a little cafe to grab a drink. 

 This place was so adorable! It was super local and really fun to spend some time. We ended up staying for a few hours. I used the WiFi and blogged and then we ended up eating dinner there. 

 We ordered Spatzel (a food I had been searching for!). It's pretty much ridiculously good mac n cheese :)
