I have to say it was quite exciting to experience Oktoberfest in Germany. It was, of course, nothing like what we see in the U.S. I did not make it to Munich or any of the other large celebrations, but I did go to the Geilenkirchen, NATO Airbase celebration. There is a special kind of beer brewed just for our celebration!
I went with A.J. and Macaira Pinto, who graciously offered to drive, and we ran into quite a few people we knew. There was dancing on the tables, swaying with the music and cross dressing Germans. That seems to be one tradition I can’t quite understand yet.
I sampled the beer, which was quite tasty, and we enjoyed chicken, sausage, French fries and pretzels. I can’t wait for next year!!!
