What Coke is to Americans, and wine is to the French Beer is to the Germans! I have never imagined so many people in one place at a time. Hundreds of thousands of people in dozens of beer tents all singing bavarian drinking songs. It was truly an experience like nowhere else in the world. After missing my ride to Munich because I thought it was a Thursday and not Friday already (jet lag) I took to the train to meet Wolfgang, Christian and Marty (Cdn) in Munich.
