Oktoberfest

Who knew South Africa celebrated Oktoberfest?  Sure, it's a knock-off, but it was still a lot of fun.  Last Friday we bought tickets at this German sports club place and went back later in the evening to meet up with Warren and Silky and everyone.  There were beer tents and German folk bands and pitchers of beer and lots of happy people.  The tent was filled with picnic benches - I don't know if people normally sit at these, but by the time we got there everyone was standing on the tables and singing.  It was a completely insane scene.  Enjoyed myself even though a guy spilled beer all over my head and soaked my hair in the first 15 minutes.  O well....
