We were arriving in Munich about 4/5pm or summin and were leaving at 7am the next morning so this would be a very short stay, we were told on the bus on the way there that oktoberfest started tomorrow and becuase of this our evening meal which we were supposed to get included was cancelled so instead we were given €10 each to spend on food or whatever, yes we were back onto euros again! We arrived in out hostel that was clearly packed even tho it was feckin huge, we collected our useless wifi codes...the wifi was s*** and decided not work ah well more excuse to go out and soak up the pre oktoberfest atmosphere. We shot our stuff in our room a got ready and jumped into a few taxis to head down to the centre of munich, it wasnt as far away here as in venice which was good and we hopped off in the hunt for some food we'd decided on some food and maby a drink or two due to our early morning start. The first place we went to was heaving and we couldnt even reserve a table for a later time :( so we carried on walking everywhere seemed either busy as f*** or waaay to expensive for us so we carried on walking and as we were this close to giving up and going to burger king i stumbled upon a posh looking restaurant realising we probebly wouldnt be able to afford it i looked on the menu anyway and what was this?! We could afford it yey! We got a table for 8 ordered our food (mash, sour crout and 5 different types if sausage) and our oktoberfest steins (stein = 1 litre) the food came out and OMG it was absoloutly amazing we even got a little jug if gravy every northerners dream! We finished our meal finished our stein and went to meet the others which we managed to do quite easily they were just getting their food and their portions were loads smaller and it was more expensive we truly had hit the jackpot! After they finished their meals we all wandered out about 16 of us now to find somewhere to drink, after walking round following someone then someone else then someone else we managed to find a little bar and went for a quick drink in there. We bumped into 2 amerjcan couples who were lovely and were chatting to them until we cought wind of their being an irish/ australian bar nearby, yes its strange i know, we finished up our drinks and walked just down the road to the irish bar itwas absoloutly jam packed!!! But it was fun and there was a place we could stand outside smoke and drink so this is what we did much of the night. We met an irish man who of course we said was emmas dad and another irish guy who i persisted to drunkenly harrass all night calling him ronan keating and singing boyzone songs to him i think he was billy no mates tho so we diddnt have much choice take the harrasment or drink alone :p. we headed back in taxis at god knows oclock and i being drunk wanted to carry on partying which lasted all of like 10 mins untill i got tired and passed out somewhere. I wokeup about 6am still totally hammered realised i was in someone elses room and staggered back to my own room i packed up the little bits i had left and we went down to get our coach to vienna Laurel was a bit worse for wear who spent much of her morning withher head down the toilet while i pranced about singing boyzone songs and stealing hard boiled eggs, this was going to be a looong day and my hangover was going to be bad!!!! Be gentle with me vienna im very fragile.
