Gothenburg Oktober fest (in August)
I met up with some old classmate and friends in gothenburg recently
Saamet who I met in taiwan etc
We visited the Oktober fest at Heden
Many people were there...even if it was only on a thursday...
I tried 2 kinds of beer...
...wearing my lläderhausen etc that I bougt in Munich...
https://johansvennung.blogg.se/2013/october/a-revisit-to-the-oktoberfest.html (that i bought here)
A quick selfie, that weposted on Saamets facebook wall (which he thought he closed) :)
It was partly raining outside..but stoped when we were about to leave...
I also found out that a guy at cykelköket who i often recognized and talked to...was from alingsås...interesting...Disapointing logic
I passed by Göteborgs Garnison recently...it says that they are open "07.15-09.00 and 09.30-11.00
Once I arrived in the morning they were closed, with the motivation that "one has to come there to find if they are open or not, they will not announce it online"....
I took their number, but still sounds like a high risk ever going there...since they spontaneously can close...lets see how this goes...
