The annual Bergkirchwieh has begun it's ten day run in Erlangen. As it's just over the hill from us we see a lot more traffic in our usually quiet little spot. It literally means 'hill church blessing', which in reality is a German Bierfest! Many of the more than a million visitors expected wear local Bavarian costume, blue or red checked shirts with lederhosen, and Dirndl dresses. As well as beer and food there is also a funfair and a few other colourful stalls thrown in, and an enormous Ferris Wheel as a landmark centre piece. I have posted pictures on other years we have visited, feel free to look back in the archive for them. Here are just some new things we did.....
