motodraconis | Linz! FOR REALS! (Reply)

Linz! Here I am in one of the churches, where there appears to have been some sort of accident or murder, it's all roped off awaiting the police to arrive...

Weeeeeeell, maybe not. But on my first day, after checking in, I walked into town. After the shock of the industrial wasteland, it wasn't long before Linz started to take on a more Austrian look.

Men in Lederhosen! FOR REALS! Playing ompa-pa-pa music. FOR REALS! And girls wearing dirndls*

I had some sort of potatoey-cheesey-dunno-if-there's-meat-in-this thing, with beer of course.

It had sort of crispy, burnt bits. Dunno if that's intentional. I ate it all.

More folk music...

And games... here a cute little girl is milking fake udders...

And this is a Pump the Beaver to make it Squirt game...

FOR REALS! I HAVE ARRIVED IN AUSTRIA! LEDERHOSEN! DIRNDLS! BEER! SQUIRTY BEAVERS AND UDDERS! FOR REALS!

You'd think it was Oktoberfest or something, which it isn't, at least, not for another week, but who's keeping tabs on exact dates anyway.

This girl really likes her bread. Where can I get bread like that?

Thought I ought to top up my five a day with something healthy.

Did I mention I was hoping to go back? Maybe I need to get my own dirndl, or lederhosen (I have the hairy leg accessory,) there were so many bods ambling around in all the gear. (I quite fancied a hat as it happens.)

* Dirndls are a Thing you know. Alas, I didn't see this...awesomeness. She's a bit of a stunna, and the girl's not bad looking either.
