Braueriefest

So today I actually left my room and ventured some more into Stuttgart. It was me, Massey, Mike, and Constance (not a Rose nerd.) So we started off with the flea market, which was pretty cool. They had a lot of neat stuff, but considering how I am moving in like two weeks, buying crap I don't really need probably not the best idea. Next we moved on to thrift shops. Most of them were closed since it was Saturday, but the ones that were open seemed to be mostly junk. After that we wandered around for a bit and then happened upon an Asian market somewhere down by Schwabstrasse. I was so excited because they had Indonesian food! So this means now that I'm going to attempt in the next couple of days to cook real food. The things I will try to cook will be nasi goreng (fried rice, and not too difficult I'm hoping) and opor ayam (this involves cooking poultry, so this is potentially scary for me.) So we'll see how that goes, more updates on that later...

So anyway later we needed lunch. So we found the Braueriefest, and we got free beer. Maybe because it was free it tasted pretty OK to me, but I drank all of mine and didn't have the urge to empty my stomach into the nearest waste receptacle. Go me! But yea we got three different beers, one was a pilsner, one was some sort of other beer that was like different and stuff (yup I know absolutely nothing about beer), and the last one was alcohol free. The alcohol free one was all sorts of nasty... So yea there was a terrible band called "Pink Plane Party," and they played a lot of 70's and 80's sadness. But the crepes I had for lunch were pretty tasty. OK pictures. That there to the right is the wall of empty beer bottles that I'm assuming they had gone through during the free beer sessions. And next up we have a picture of happy college students experiencing beer in Germany.

...And that's all I have to say about that for now...
