Weekend at the Stadt Festival in Boblingen

Actual Date: July 6

This weekend was our first of many huge festivals in our town. We walked down to the Marktplatz near the lakes where this festival was taking place. There were vendors selling things as far as one could see. They sold things like clothing, furniture, wallets, purses, scarves, scarves, and more scarves, sunglasses and lots of food and of course BEER!!!!
There were about 5 different stages set up throughout the city with entertainment from dancers to bands, ALL to American music of course.
Anyway, it was one of those rare completely beautiful days in Stuttgart, except for the fact that Trey was sick with a stomach bug:( he was able to make it for a bit but then went home, luckily we are able to walk since its literally down the street.
We ate bratwurst, pomme frittes,drank wine and beer and Blair and I tried some random specialty drinks. One of our drinks was soda, Aperol?? And mint leaves with lime....pretty good. Aperol is an orange type liquor that the Germans seem to love.
We also climbed up the tower of the church to se the whole city which was pretty neat and rode bumper cars and listened to several bands, some really good actually.
We stayed at this festival from 1pm until practically midnight when it ended. We had so much fun. In the evening we actually sat at a table with one of the counselor s for the mayor and hung out for the rest of the night. He even bought Billy a beer:) love the Germans
On a side note we listened to music like Rolling down the River and Sweet Home Alabama!!!
I am trying to attach videos below but if they don't load I'm sorry, enjoy the pictures!!!

I forgot to write that Billy and Blake did rock climbing together.

Sorry there are no videos due to the fact the blog sight wants to charge $60 a year, ugh no!!
