Gütentag, Hofbräuhaus!

What is the NUMBER ONE thing about living in KENTUCKY? Oh yeah, only that we have the ONLY Hofbräuhaus in America. That's right folks, there are two in the world - München (Munich) and NEWPORT, KY! Ok, so Newport is really "metro Cincinnati," but it's on the Kentucky side of the river, so I'm claiming it for the Commonwealth! (By the way, if anyone knows the difference between a State and a Commonwealth, I'd really like to know.) These pictures are of Matt and I posing as Germans and dancing the night away to the sound of an authentic Bavarian band complete with an Accordian player and YODELING! I think we may be the only people to ever do the Texas Two Step to Bavarian Folk Music, but hey - it worked for us. Towards the end of the night, however, Matt traded me in for a "more experienced" dance partner! Look at the sweat he worked up - she gave him a run for his money! She definitley knew what she was doing - she was the accordian player's mother!




We left there stuffed to the gills with excellent German fare. We had pretzels with grainy mustard, bratwurst, mettwurst, bierwurst, sauerkraut and mashed potatoes! It was awesome. For those of you who've been to the original - this was every bit as great! Come visit us and we'll take you there!
