Oktoberfest

 Sunny Saturday in Stuttgart - we hit the Volksfest so right!
We had a blast gearing up and diving in to the festivities.  

 The O family, including their 4 kids, were excellent hosts!



O and E went to ski academy together many years ago, and have remained buddies ever since.  It was so fun to reunite in Europe with families in tow.

As for Team F,  3 out of 4 of us jumped at the chance to gear up in German attire, W preferred to wear his usual duds, a football uniform.







I love a good Brat, these hit the spot.




Once in the beer tent, which was one of about 5 huge beer tents, the 10 of us found the most family friendly seats we could, and settled in for some chicken, pretzels, beers, singing, spilling, and dancing on the tables.




To get a better sense of the scene inside the beer tent, check this...



It wasn't all beers, pretzels and brats...there was plenty of fair food to be had.  This was O's first cotton candy experience.  Not impressed, after that initial bite the whole thing went into the garbage.



P wanted one more dirndl photo before she had to take it off that night.  Happy to oblige, i snapped this sweet shot.
