Oktoberfest

As I said, my uni did a trip to the Oktoberfest (Inside Munich known as the "Wiesn" and outside Germany as the Beerfest). Usually the tents are full of people by midday right through until the evening, so we went there at 9 in the morning, to get a couple of tables. They opened at 10, but at least we were almost first in the line!
We managed to get a couple of tables, eventhough they were quite far apart. It was good fun, exept for out waiter, who insisted on us buying something every 30 minutes, or otherwise he would throw us out, concidering the prices there (8.30€ for a liter of beer), not a very sensible postion. In the end we had enough and left the tent at about 4 to 5, still we had our fun!

Here are a few photos:
