Festivals in Germany are a piece of german engineering packed with fun. These are a few of the recent festivals I (Pete) attended with friends in Wiesbaden (Mary is home in the USA working the greenhouse for her umpteenth season). Apologies for the qualities of the pictures - they are taken with my iPhone - and yes, I do use it as a phone once in awhile.
Interesting people watching... |
...and outfits. |
And great festival food. This is one of my favorites - plank salmon grilled over a wood fire. Served in a fresh bun with dill and mustard sauce. |
Even the local bikers have a booth - burgers and Jack Coke. |
This one you could smell a mile away... Knobi-Brot. Essentially baked bread with garlic and other toppings! Couldn't get myself to try this one. |
Just off the grounds near the castle was this interesting bit of architecture. A modern glass building built around remnants of the medieval wall of the city. |
And fnally, Germans among many things are not understated. This says it all: Slush with Alcohol. Appeals to the kid in all of us. |
