OKTOBERFEST IS AWESOME.
As is Munich. Our hosts are AMAZING (shoutout to Felix and Chris... thanks for babysitting us haha). We don't have internet though, so this is the first time I've been able to get online. We've been having far too much fun for our own good... we're currently sitting in Felix's parents house outside the city, and it's just ADORABLE and gorgeous with gardens and we had a HUGE amazing home cooked German meal... so so fun. And beer with lunch, of course. We've gone to the actual center of Oktoberfest twice, and it's absolutely insane. I didn't realize that when people say Oktoberfest is like Disneyland for alcoholics, they mean it.. it literally looks like Disneyland with rides and rollercoasters and arcade games and cotton candy.. it's really awesome.
We've been hosted along with tons of other people... so it's been a giant fest of people splitting apart and sleeping either at the apartment or Felix's parents house.. Frances and I have gotten to cuddle on the couch most nights.. quite comfortable.
Every night, we play this really fun game with steins of beer.. basically, you buy one stein of beer (which is 10 euros, by the way.. but it's 3 beers worth, and each beer has 8% alcohol instead of 4, so it's equivalent to drinking 6 beers.. not too shabby hahah). So, you buy a stein (or maß) of beer, and whoever bought starts drinking. You get one drink without stopping, and then you pass it to the person on your right, and they take a drink, and pass it on, etc. The person who finishes the drink "wins," and the previous person has to buy the next drink- very simple concept, but very fun and you get very drunk very quickly, because you end up drinking tons to avoid buying drinks. We've started every night with this game, and ended with dancing, singing German songs, and running around in our dirdels. Frances and I both don't want school to ever start :/ hahah.
We have to go now, get dressed, and go back to Oktoberfest.. we'll post more and pictures soon! Auf wiedersehen!
