This was me at Oktoberfest 2005 back in September...I know! At first I thought it would be in October but to my surprise it wasn't...I planned the trip earlier this year. The highlights of this trip were taking an impromptu trip to Amsterdam due my brothers (Trevor) hotel in Dubai not waking him up and making him miss his flight to meet Amber (Trevor's girlfriend) and myself. Well that was at the very least an interesting experience! In our rented VW Van we made our way down the Autobahn quite quickly to Nuremberg (pretty town). This is where we met up with Slawek and friends and made our way to Oktoberfest. Drinking ensued and 7 Liters later we stumbled our way back to the hostel. After exploring Munich for a day or two, Trev, Amber, and myself wandered on down to Austria to see the very famous Cinderella's Castle (well the real one Disney copied!). Trev and I then drove to Berlin, Amber has this thing about sleeping in cars at all times...makes me wonder how she drives anywhere! It was a long drive but it was a awesome drive and got to see lots of Germany too! Berlin was a different city...the graffiti didn't just litter the Berlin Wall (or whats left of it) but seemed to spill, or more so explode on to every building, road, bus stop, man, women and child...it was everywhere! Not an exciting city in September but very interesting to see both sides of the wall and the difference in style.
Ahhhh...Duetschland...das ist wunderbar!

Unfortunately it was not the real Jacob!
I deleted the post so now you look like your rambling incoherently...sorry for that.
The road to Oktoberfest WAS fun though...
