These Germans like to party! They call them "Fests" and they happen all the time. No matter how small a town it is - if there is a square foot of empty space to be found - at some point they will throw up a tent, offer food,beer, and music and have a great time.
In Schweinfurt, we had MANY of these fests, several times a year, on a bigger scale - they included rides and games. Coincidentally, the day we took Kailey and Colby to Schweinfurt to see where they came from - there was a Fest going on. They LOVED it! and it helped to convince them that maybe Germany might not be so bad after all...
Down here in Grafenwoehr - they have a very large, yearly, German-American Volksfest ( in addition to the many, smaller,local ones). It is the very best food, great music, tons of beer, and all of our most favorite rides, games, and snacks. Throw local craft vendors in there - and a great time is had by all! The only thing missing was Daddy.....
But he's looking forward to next year!!
