No more Oktoberfest
So I thought it would be way easy once we were in Europe to travel around for really cheap. Turns out I'm right, except when it comes to traveling through Munich (Germany) in the middle of Oktoberfest. Our flight next Tuesday lands in Munich for a 6-hour layover before going to Madrid. So Greg and I were like, "Hey, man... Why not 'miss' our connecting flight and stay in Munich for a few days to kick off our year properly: with a few German beers?" but then the universe was like, "Um, nope. I'll give you 6 hours to go have a few German beers, but if you don't catch your connecting flight I'ma charge you like a billion dollars." So, yeah. Hopefully the beer tents aren't too far away from the airports. :)

(best Tobias Fünke impression): Oh, universe!
That sucks to be so close to Oktoberfest and not be able to enjoy it. I had a 7 hour layover in London once - just enough time to do... nothing! This was in 2001 so I had to transfer airports and check in to the terminal ASAP because it could have taken several hours. No fun.
I would suggest visiting Munich again if you have the chance though. I've heard from some people that it's one of the best cities in Europe.
That blows! It's getting so close to you guys actually leaving. I'm so excited for you. I hope you guys have a great experience.
Yeah but Neil is picking ya'll up...which means Belgium beer....if he's half the man you claim he is :)
Your dad managed to turn us all into Oktoberfest beer snobs last night. Are you sure I can't steal your parents?
