Originally posted by FantasticMrFox On Saturday Oktoberfest is starting again here in Munich - crowds of people will be descending onto the city centre in search of completely overpriced beer (why, €11 for a litre of beer, yes please!), drunk tourists in cheap Dirndls and fake Lederhosen will be jumping onto the cycling tracks like they're suicidal and force me into F1-like evasive manoeuvres, the trains will be full of vomit, you'll need about half an hour to strong arm your way across the 150m of Mary's Square ... can I apply for asylum for three weeks in any of you guys' places? Preferences would be Norway, New Zealand, or Washington State/Montana/Minnesota.
Yes, you have plenty of Norwegians visiting to drink beer at half price, I'm sure!
Really, apart from the Lederhosen you're describing a normal Friday night. Oh yes, and Norwegians, drunk or sober, have not yet grasped the concept of separating pavement/sidawalk from bike lanes. Coming here will not help in that regard. Apart from that - welcome! We won't even chuck you out after Halloween
