Excellent!!!

Last year, myself, Yuko and her folks headed off to Hibiya park for Oktoberfest. We had a most enjoyable time, so imagine my disappointment back in April when I found out that there would be another German Beer festival to be held in May 2006 at Hibiya Park. Noooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!

That’s when Yuko and I were going to Australia, so we’d miss it. The plan to move it forward to May was because of the Football/Soccer World Cup, which started up in June.

But….

Today I’m a happy chap. Yuko noticed that there is still an Oktoberfest this year. The event in Hibiya Park back in May was merely “German Festival”. It started today, and is on all week. This time though, it’s being held down in Yokohama. So, Yuko and I are heading straight down there tomorrow. Yuko’s parents have been informed, and I imagine Yuko’s dad is a happy chap (he likes his German beer, and the whole culture thing because he was there as a student).
