More on Oktoberfest and Germany UPDATED

Here's a picture of the draft horses with Lady Bavaria in the background.:
Here's the inside of one of the beer houses we went into: (A little smoky, would you say?)

After Oktoberfest Sepp and Ingrid took us to Nymphenburg Castle in Munich. It has expansive gardens and is still a sanctuary for the swans that have been there for hundreds of years. Here's a picture of the castle and some of the castle grounds: (BTW: That castle is MUCH bigger than the little bit I was able to get in the picture.)

And one of the swans: Here is a picture from our coffee/tea stop at the "Palmen Haus":

Overall, we had a great day with Ingrid and Sepp (pronounced like: Zep) even though we can't speak much Germany and they can't speak much English. We get along pretty good! ;-)

More tomorrow....
