Oktoberfest in Brisbane













The sun has been out all weekend and it has been in the enjoyable 70s all weekend. Oktoberfest is in town and we decided to make our way there this weekend. It was, let's call it...a cultural experience... They have them in the United States as well, but I have never been to one. It was fun to go see and experience but INTERESTING. It was basically a bunch of people dressed in the German attire, drinking excess amounts of beer while riding various rides, eating German food, and dancing to a live German band. The music was really fun though. There were wood floors in the tent with the band and everyone was dancing and stomping to music from around the world with a German twang to it.

A few days ago we went out to the "Vic" which is a bar/club in the city and the rest of our weekend has been pretty chill with the continuation of Tim Burton movie watching party and working on an Art History paper due Tuesday.

Vegetable eating has continued. Today for lunch I had grilled chicken and vegetables (potatoes, broccoli, asparagus, red pepper, eggplant, and green beans)! Woohoo

Today was one of the pretties days yet. We all went down and laid by the pool with some music and books. I'm about to go for my first run outside again. I've been running again for a few weeks now with very little soreness and am braving the outdoors now. Hopefully the terrain here won't kill me again.
