Cannstatt Bier Fest

Last weekend I participated in my first Oktoberfest! It was great fun. A group of us took the train to Stuttgart. Were were lucky to arrive when we did as most of the tables are reserved in advanced. We scored a table outside, ordered dinner along with many many many Maβ of bier. Eventually we made it inside the tent where the music was playing. Everyone gets up on the benches and starts dancing, singing and drinking together. It really is a sight to see. I think this particular tent had 5,000 people in it. Incredible! Here are some pictures of the festivities. I have more on facebook if you want to see.
