My Oktoberfest
It might suffice to say that Oktoberfest this year was a little different. No feathered hats, no beer hauses and no pretending like you know how to polka with 500 other drunken bavarian-wannabes. Nope, none of that. Just Reeshma and I wandering the streets of Tokyo chatting up a storm. This picture is one of several German themed restaurants we saw on our travels. As you can see their attempts at authenticity are pretty spectacular. This place, along with many other classy restaurants we located directly beneathe a major railroad line. However, the noise produced above was barely audible below. We didn't go in because we were both broke with only maybe a 2000 yen between the two of us. We ate somewhere cheaper and later split a single slice of cake while the Japanese stared on like we had just stepped off a space ship. Not sure what they were so fascinated or concerned about, but whatever. So life has been pretty uneventful lately and so I was definately missing Oktoberfest and Turkey dump, but its just motivation to find some entertainment here.
