Have you been Oktoberfestering??? I was in Munich for it in, let’s see… it must have been 1998. There are some very merry photos of me looking all young holding a Maß, as time and drinks went past it became easier and easier to hold and the pretzels were VERY nice. I was so impressed by the waitresses going past holding several of them in each hand! Hope you had a lovely time
Aw thanks Maria! Yes, I went a couple of times in the end… Those pretzels are just good, but what a good idea to sell them to the masses to soak up all that beer! :)
i love that this hints at some much – her traditional skirt, her identity, the identity of the other drinkers, if she might be selling them or carrying a gift – fabulous!
Gorgeous roses – what’s the story behind them? Is she selling them? Or did someone give them to her? Looks like the season of the Bierfest is well and truly underway!
Thank you! You have to be very careful about revealing people’s identities in pictures here, so this worked as it was a back view, and I just liked the flowers! :)

Bibsey Mama says
Proof, if any were needed, that people really do wear hats like that in your neck of the woods. Great shot.
bavaria says
And I have plenty more proof where that came from, I just need to be more organised to do a couple of posts to show you! :D Thanks! x
liveotherwise says

:) Thank you!
Rachel says
Oooh, that looks like Oktober fest? Lovely flowers :)
bavaria says
And you would be right! Thank you very much :)
fivegoblogging says
Those roses are beautiful but I’m distracted by her check skirt. Love the blue black colour combo :-)
bavaria says
The traditional dress is very pretty here… Thank you! :)
glitzygleam says
Lovely photo, the red roses look amazing xx
bavaria says
Thanks very much (:
Herding Cats says
Are they hiding behind those roses? Great picture.
bavaria says
No, she was probably trying to get them to buy some. It was only about 12.30, but I think they had been in there a long time! :D
Minisaurus says
I so want a hat with a feather in it too!
bavaria says
It can be arranged! :D
Jess says
Oh what beautiful flowers :-)
bavaria says
Thanks very much Jess! :)

It is indeed… The Hofbrau tent! :D
sarahmumof3 says

bavaria says
I was at Oktoberfest, so much to photograph here! :)
MsCaroline says
Gorgeous roses – what’s the story behind them? Is she selling them? Or did someone give them to her? Looks like the season of the Bierfest is well and truly underway!
bavaria says
Yes, she was selling them… Oktoberfest ended today. I will not miss the drunken tourists and the piles of sick everywhere! :D
Midlife Singlemum says
I hope someone special gave her those. There is so much in this photo if you look around the girl – I love all the little other details.
bavaria says
It was her job to sell them, they were beautiful though, so much nicer than the garage type flowers that get sold in the pubs in the UK…
Sonya Cisco says
Lovely pic, I will have a beer instead of a flower tho please! ;)
bavaria says
Likewise! ;)
clairejustineoxox says
Love this shot ,wonder who is getting some beautiful roses ? :)

Thank you! Actually, I felt quite sorry for those that did receive them. It was mostly drunken men buying them! :D
Funky Wellies says
Gorgeous! Love how the red stands out. xx
bavaria says
Thank you! That’s what I liked too! :)
Louise Lloyd says
Gorgeous roses….hope you were brought one?

Erica Price says
Lovely shot! Is that at Oktoberfest?
