Bavaria

Salzburg. It's all about Mozart and The Sound of Music. The hills are really alive there. With the. Sound. Of Music.

Speaking of The Sound of Music -- the hostel I stayed in showed it every night at 8pm. And I was kind of embarrassed to know most of the words... to most of the songs.

Beautiful town though. It's a good town for old people to visit.


Munich on the other hand, is all about the bier and the weissbier. It's a good town for annoying Australians and Samoans to visit.

I knew most of the words to most of the songs that were played here too. And I kind of learned the words to this German toasting song that was played at least once hourly:

Ein Prosit, Ein Prosit, sum germudlicht kite,
Ein Prosit, Ein Prosit, sum germudlicht kite!

(And then we would all say something that sounded like): Unce, Fie, Dry, Sofa

They also did that Ziggy-Zaggy-Ziggy-Zaggy- Oye! Oye! Oye! cheer which was made popular in the States on The Man Show (awful show, that).



Everything's big there during Oktoberfest. It's in tents.
