Oktoberfest 2010!

After my first day as a Financial analyst,  I hop on the evening train that took me through a 12 hours journey all the way to Munich, Germany! The train connections were pretty bad and I had to wait for 2 hours (from 23h30 till 1h30) in Heidelberg, somewhere in Germany...

I finally get there at 6h00am, and fight my way to meet my friends Moe and Sena. I sleep about an hour, then we're on our way to Oktoberfest, once again!!

About to get some serious drinking going...

First "Mass" (1 liter) of the day, Prost!

We started the day at 9h50, and the "tents" were already full, so we had to start drinking on the patio outside! Try to find Moe on this picture, Prost my friend!

After many (and very funny) unsuccessful attempts to get in the Tent, we finally got in!!

Now the real party started! Already had about 5 Masses at that point...

Ambiance speaks for itself, Oktoberfest!!!

The next day, we take advantage of the beautiful weather to go out in Munich to once again visit that very nice German city

The City Hall (Rathaus, in German)

Awesome times in Munich with good friends!

The train was late, and it took about 8h30 to get back to Morges near Lausanne, where I now live. A few hours sleep remained until my first week at work started...

Ouff! Good times are worth the lack of sleep!
