Germany Day 4

Today, we went to Haar, to visit Peter's aunt, "Tante Heidrun". We were greeted with champagne and a wonderful meal, and then headed into Munich to experience Oktoberfest. Crazy!

We all got steins and had many toasts!

Pete with his cousin Felix outside the infamous Hofbräu Tent.

The highlight of the Oktoberfest for me was the many yummy traditional foods that were available. We tried our best to sample all of them - and take pictures for evidence!

The air their smelled of caramelized sugar - from the candied nuts stands. We had several servings :)

Many people hung this shrink-wrapped decorated cookie with various Oktoberfest messages around there neck.

I had to take a picture of this for mom, who loves carmel apples.

We know the German's are into Bratwurst, but 1/2 meter seems extreme! 


We managed to miss the big rush - the metro station was swamped with people arriving for the festival just as we were leaving.
