September 2010 - Munich, Germany
Rathaus-Glockenspiel
Visited the legendary Oktoberfest. 200 years ago on 12 October 1810, the Oktoberfest was first held in honour of the marriage of crown prince Ludwig to Princess Therese von Sachsen-Hildburghausen.
For two weeks, the Oktoberfest attracts millions of people visiting its beer tents ("Bierzelte") and fairground attractions.
I drank a pint nearly everyday for 3 months and put myself on a 'strict regime' of beer-after-dinner for 3 solid months. The evening before the big opening day, I drank 3 steins (3 liters) confidently during dinner with friends. I got back to the hostel and threw up.
The next day, I found my way to the fairground - got into the tents with some divine help from locals - and ended up drinking 6 steins (personal achievement!) the whole afternoon. In Oktoberfest, every German or tourist (like me) around you is like your long lost best friend. I also showed them how to dance on tables. Luckily, they told me to stop before the bouncers threw me out.
Oh, I lost my jacket and broke a souvenir mug whilst getting home too.
