So, I’m back in Munich to visist Mel for about 10 days. Just in time to go to the Oktoberfest, too!
It’s actually quite strange. It’s strange to be here knowing that I am not staying. It is the first time I’ve been back since I moved to the US. I often find myself wondering why I ever left… Since I was here in 97 when I studied for a semester in Germany, Munich has always felt like…well, I guess like a second home. Hopefully some day I will get to live here again.
So, far the trip has been pretty exiting, even though the weather has been pretty crap. I Arrived on Saturday around 11am and that evening we went to the Wies’n. It was extremely crowded so we wandered around for a while trying to get in a tent. Finally we got into a small less popular one, and I had a Mass of Augustiner! Mmmmm, yummy… We didn’t stay too late as I was pretty tired. Unfortunately, Mel couldn’t get off work for most of the week. She has Tuesday and Friday off. So, when she isn’t working we have just been hanging out and relaxing. We went to a friends for dinner as well. Yesterday we went to the Oktoberfest again for dinner and had a ‘halbes Hendl’ (half a chicken) and yup some beer. 😉 Yummmmy! Friday will be the last time we go, and we’ll go in the full gear…Lederhosen and Dirndl. Einz, Zwo, Drei g’suffa!
