Oktoberfest Zinzinnati!!!

So this time I went to Oktoberfest Zinzinnati (Cincinnati). Sadly, I didn't take that many photos what-so-ever. Mainly because I forgot with a little mix of the place being so crowded I could get a good view of anything! I love Oktoberfest, but that was Oktoberfest gone wild! It was very crowded and some people were kinda rude. Plus, I thought it was REALLY pricey. 

My boyfriend's dad had to play his horn at "The Uber Dome." At first I thought it was going to be so much fun! Then I saw the price for VIP. Which my boyfriends dad paid for, but I couldn't believe it! We only got one drink and one trip to the buffet. You'd think that'd be enough except they suggested to get your moneys worth to use your drink ticket for beer (which I can't get). The issue with food was they only had five things to choose from and when we got up there everything was almost gone! I got a pretzel stick with cheese, a piece of chicken, and some apple strudel and on top of that we had to go buy our own pops.

The seating there was awful as well. It was VIP but all you could see of the stage was speakers! I was really disappointed because they did a funny skit, but in my photos everyone in the skit is blocked by the speakers. So all I have is a picture of the view outside the dome. It's very pretty, I just wish I could have some photos with more German culture to show you guys.


Don't even get me started on those dirndl costumes! Not the actual dirndls but the ones from costume stores. All I can say is COVER UP! If you were at a adult halloween party whatever do what you want, but there are children around! 

I should probably go take a deep breathe and count to ten.

Oktoberfest Fun!

So the weekend of August 23rd-25th was our local Germania Society Oktoberfest! Which makes me happy because my boyfriend (Johnny) and his family belong to the club. His mom is in charge of the pretzel booth.

Another reason why to be so happy about that weekend was Johnny's twenty-first birthday! He only had one beer and had a designated driver, don't worry. Some of his friends from outside of the club joined us to celebrate his birthday.  Instead of drinking he and his friends decided to play poker the whole night. Haha. He says he really enjoyed his birthday, though. You can tell by the smile on his face!


We had a blast the whole weekend, but by the last day we we're so warn out from working so hard all weekend long we were so ready to sleep in the next day. It was a great weekend and I can't wait until next year! (:
