Food Adventures, Thursday, First Period

[carbsliftthespirit]

"Last week, we started exploring Rome, and I said we were going to do kind of a little unit on Rome," Raiden said. "And we are. But we're going to have to get back to that later, because this week we're headed to Munich, Germany, for their famous Oktoberfest! Now, Oktoberfest is a festival mainly celebrating beer, but that doesn't mean there's nothing there for you if you're not into beer. There's lots of food and rides, concerts and events--I think today is the Oktoberfest church service, which is a thing that exists--and just generally fun for everyone. So let's head to Oktoberfest and have some fun!

"Before we get there, though, when we go through the portal we're going to stop off first at a dirndl and lederhosen rental place, so anyone who wants to can get properly outfitted. It's on me!" He hoped they had lederhosen in his size. "Now we can go."

We're going to Germany!

Oktoberfest!

[carbsliftthespirit]

Welcome to Munich, where the high today is 57 degrees, so hopefully you brought a coat.

Once everyone who wanted to be had been fitted out for traditional costume, Raiden told them, "Nobody get too wild, okay? I'm trusting you. We'll meet at the entrance at handwavey o'clock for our portal home."

Talk to Raiden

[carbsliftthespirit]

He should be easy to find in the crowds. Just look up.

Nell was not wearing a dirndl, thank you very much, though she appreciated Raiden's offer of course. Nor was it at all likely that she would even come anywhere close to approaching too wild.

Still, she was very interested in all the Oktoberfest activities!

After getting a description of what the lederhosen consisted of, Ignis was going to very politely decline, and, instead, surprising no one, focusing his attention on following his nose to sample and try as much of the food and beverage options as he could manage while also asking plenty of questions to inspire some new recipehs to build Liliana's lunch out of.

Stark

Re: Oktoberfest!

[stykera]

There was no reason for Stark to try on a traditional outfit. And yet.

He looked silly, he was sure he did, but he would have stood out anyway.

It was doubtful he'd get too wild. But he was going to indulge some. There was no reason not to. And he really hadn't had any good sausage in a while...

Oh hell yeah was Arden wearing a dirndl. She was mostly sad it was just a rental costume. She was also quickly braiding her hair, too.

She was gonna be cute as fuck today, thank you very much.

Erasmus wasn't sure he was pulling off the lederhosen, but, y'know, when in Rome. Or, well. Munich.

He was going to have to get a better coat soon, though, because he was absolutely freezing. What was this, the Arctic?
