Nurnberger Volksfest

It's that time of year again in Germany.  The time to drink beer and be merry.  Always such a good time.  Having family here to celebrate the occasion makes it even more fun.

Justin's family came to visit us in Germany, so naturally we wanted to show them a real good German time.  We took them to Nurnberg since the town was holding their annual Volksfest.

Justin tried to win me a bear playing a carnival game, but got a sweet cowboy hat instead

Once we walked around the fest a bit we headed to a beer tent.  We drank some beer, played card games, and listened to the band play.  It was fun to catch up with family and have fun while doing it!
On our way out Jon had a try at a game and won me a rose
Overall, we had a great time walking around the fest and enjoying German culture.  Nurnberger Volksfest was the start of a great week with the DeLeon family.
