Oktoberfest Bundle 1

I left my house at around 9am in the morning for the train station at oestrich winkel. i'm going for a 4 day 3 nights trip, and my backpack is really really heavy though i've got nothing much inside. well it's subjective! =P

walking to the train station with my backpack was really a torture, and it's only the beginning of our trip. it's bad! haha

from oestrich winkel to wiesbaden and then wiesbaden to frankfurt hauptbahnhof. and subsequently a few more transit and we arrive at Rothenburg after 5 hours or so. it's once again a small little town, quite like the one im living in, minus the vineyards. it's more of a touristy town just like Rudesheim. Both having their own unique features.
there isnt much to see in Rothenburg actually, after living in Germany for awhile, everything looks the same after awhile. one attraction in the town is the Torture Museum. haha yeah im a sadist.it wasnt that horrific in the museum as compared to how Daljoon described it. it was boring actually, =X they have all the equipments of torture which was used in the 1700s or so. but there wasnt any images or pictures to enhance the tour experience. waste of money.
and of course, we went to the english garden where we could view the town from another angle. the town is surrounded by thick walls just like those u see in movies, real medieval like.
and also, according to the korean guide book, we have to try this.....

it's a germany version of boonpin's cream puff. they have lots of flavour, i love the one wih nutella in it. yum yum! boonpin, better improve on your puffs! the price is pretty reasonable too, $3 sing dollars for 1 which is bigger than the one u get in spore.and our last stopover for the day is a teddy bear shop located in the cityhall.the bears are so so so cute! i would love to have one but, they are way too expensive for a student like me. a small size bear cost about 120 euros which is 240 sing dollars?! ekkkks! so all i could do was to take pictures with it..boooo! =P
