Paging der Kubaner

How was the Fest? We need to hear all about the Good, The Bad, and maybe even some of The Ugly.

Prost!

Gentlemen . . . Der Kubaner is in for Oktoberfest, 2015

I had to back out of the last trip because my oldest son was leaving for college.  This year I will be going to Oktoberfest with my 2nd son.  I already booked my room (Hilton Munich City) and am all set.

My 2nd son is 18 and has heard from my oldest son, what an awesome time Oktoberfest is.  We are really looking forward to it.

Our trip is scheduled the 23rd-28th.

We would love to get together and see if we can attend some events with the group.

Be well and I look forward to the typical informative conversation.

Holy Crap... we gotta go...

Current Euro is $1.08.  Cheaper beer, cheaper hendl, cheaper rooms.  Wow.

Is it real? A Five second chug?

Is it real?

Don't be an Ugly American

When traveling, even though most Europeans do speak some English, don't be obnoxious, but be polite if you don't speak any German. Don't be like these guys.......

A German guy, looking for directions, pulls up at a bus stop where two Americans are waiting. "Entschuldigung, koennen Sie Deutsch sprechen?" he asks. The two Americans just stare at him. "Excusez-moi, parlez vous Francais?" he tries. The two continue to stare. "Parlare Italiano?" No response. "Hablan ustedes Espanol?" Still nothing. The German guy drives off, extremely disgusted.
The first American turns to the second and says, "Y'know, maybe we should learn a foreign language."
"Why?" says the other. "That guy knew four languages, and it didn't do him any good."
