Stadt Fest

Today we went to the Stadt Fest (=City Festival) in Dresden. Ten minutes walk from home and we were in the Theatre Platz- where it all started. It is a mid-evil festival, and that means that there are a lot of stands with nice things to buy, or just nice food to eat. I had a beer that's made with honey (honey-beer) and I loved it! It tastes a bit sweeter than normal beer, and it has a bit different texture (less sparkly). We also had some nice potatoes and some good mid-evil bread- a big chunk of heavy fresh bread with yogurt and herbs on it. For desert I had a waffle with cherries. Yum!!! There were ppl dressed in mid-evil clothes, and some stages all around with live shows and music. It was great!!! Seeing the old town filled with ppl like that - it made the whole place look as if it's again the center of town, and not just a touristic place that reminds us there were once kings and lords who lived there. We got there at around 18:00 and left at 23:00, and I enjoid every moment. One of my German class mates, from Norway, joined us too- was fun seeing her before I leave (not sure if she's gonna be here when I'm back).
Here are some pictures:

The Elbe- Stands of food everywhere

A typical beer stand

I just love hot air balloons!
When the weather is nice
you can see so many of them in the sky

The ferris wheel isn't always there


Look how many ppl!!!


Anywhere in Dresden where there are tourists
you can see these little cute things:
It's a little tourist cab,
That is driven usually by young ppl-
and it's a tricycle-
so it's good for the environment too!


Anybody cares for some potatoes with yogurt and garlic?

Some fun for the kids:
this man is walking in the wheel
to make the "Marry go round" turn

Have a good weekend!!!
