Oktoberfest

Whoa -- it has been quite some time since I've actually written anything for my blog and there's a lot, as always, to catch up on. . .

The weekend after the Ankaragucu match, some fellow CSI's and I went to "Oktoberfest" at the German Embassy (which is BEAUTIFUL, America, why can't your Embassy be as pretty??) in Ankara. It was wildly entertaining. More than anything I was so anxious to eat German food and have a beer that was NOT Efes. Don't get me wrong -- I love Efes! especially this new kind I recently discovered last weekend: Efes Dark Brown. Mmmmm, so good. It takes like coffee! I can't remember what the label said exactly, something like dark Efes mixed with something coffee-ish obviously. You would think coffee and beer would be incompatible, but it's heaven! I love it!

Anyhow, it was gluttinous to say the least, but so much fun. I don't know if there is really that much more to say than that! Great German music, food, and beer -- what else could a girl want!! Haha. To compare it to the real Oktoberfest, however, doesn't do it much justice for obvious reasons. But all in all it was a great success -- a key phrase that has somehow spread through Lojman Yuz Alta like wildfire and I can't think of who originated it...

It definitely brought back fond memories of my brief but fabulous time in Munich and some new and equally hilarious memories!

No photos yes, but should be coming soon!
