    Laura you can show up any time - but I doubt you'll fit in the dirndl

    WONDERFUL pics, Karen!! Wow, do you have any idea how much people were in that beer-tent ? And, do you HAVE TO drink beer there? Or can you also order fruitjuice or simply water??

    In this tent there will be about 3500 people when it's full. But Monday at lunch time there will only be about 1500...
    There are 8 tents like that and when you go Saturday at the same time they will all be closed because they are stuffed full.
    You can have water or apple juice- but it all comes in the 1 liter mug. And most people don't go there for a liter of sparkling water
    You are welcome however to share a mug- that's what Siegmar and I did- I could never finish a liter. Half of it is about 1 pint.

    Laura may well be too nice and slim to look her best in a drindl, but if I have to dress up, so does everyone else!

    Lut, I couldn't drink that much liquid either, not beer, not water, nor anything else. Sharing is definitely the way to go. One between four would be ideal, but I doubt they'd let you take up four seats and buy one drink!

    The Ferris wheel was great! Siegmar took some nice photos from it.

    Glad you had a great time, Karen! As you know, I was there some years ago and enjoyed it very much. Especially meeting so many PTalkers and of course Tigris and Filou. We didn’t go sailing, but took some trips around the area, which is breathtaking - don’t you agree!

    Thanks for sharing the pictures!
