Mt. Angel Oktoberfest, Mt. Angel, OR P170
 
This was my first visit to the Oktoberfest in Mt. Angel, OR.  I have friends in Germany and I really wanted to see if this would give me a taste of Germany.  My goodness the food certainly does, there is allot of it. Its very good and some very different.  Like fried mushrooms and stands with baked potatoes.  Onion ring stands, stands just for strawberry shortcake and Ice cream bars dipped fresh and rolled in nuts.   Sausage and sourcrout stands and corn on the cob on a stick.  Along with even cotton candy for sale.  Elephant ears to eat,and other pastries.

I was amazed at all the food available.  We did not leave hungry.  So  many people were there.  Even with all the people the lines at the food stands moved fairly quickly.  The music in the beer gardens was fun to listen to. We didn't visit the gardens but the music was quite loud to we didn't have to.  It was deffinently a feeling of another country.  We went to the church in town and it is beautiful.  Go see it, its not like the modern churches around here.  Its like the beautiful churches in Europe.  We looked at the craft stands and we even looked at the old car show that was there.  Very fun to look around.  Again I say there was allot of people so if crowds don't bother you go for it.  You know though crowds bother me and I enjoyed going.
