FRED HOFFMAN VISITS

OKTOBERFEST, MUNICH SEPTEMBER 2011

PART I


Dick, the Oktoberfest is without a doubt the largest celebration in the world.Photos enclosed are a selection of rides, shows, concessions and gamesAll rides are spectaculars, even the kiddie rides.


Mixed in with the amusements are 14 large beer halls--each one seationg thousands of people!





A family owns just 1 - 3 rides and each one is heavily flashed, decorated and landscaped. Many of these have fountains and other water features.


People are standing in line for everything starting at 9:00 at in the morning
you have to see it to beleive it!



The grounds are very large--it takes hours to get around.
