Diplomfeier (Graduation Party) - FH Wiesbaden

|

Fachbereich Design Informatik Medien
10. Oktober 2006 - Schloss Biebrich, Wiesbaden

Der Ziel ist erreicht !!! Obwohl ich schon längst fertig bin, ohne die Diplomfeier ist es einfach noch nicht komplett. Endlich ist mein Diplom da !!!
Tschüss FH Wiesbaden, Vielen Dank für alle tolle Zeiten und natürlich auch für die hervorragende Ausbildung zum Diplom. Informatiker (FH).

These are some pics from my graduation ceremony. In Germany is the graduation party quite modest. Infact, it is only the graduation from the students of my departement, not from the whole university.
Ah... Another important thing... German's "Diplom" is not a Diploma. OK !!!

Third Visit to Oktoberfest

|

Hofbräu Festzelt, Sunday, 1. October 2006
with Oliver, Bianca and Silke

Oliver, my university mate @ FH Wiesbaden is coming to Munich specially for the Oktoberfest. On Sunday, I joined him and his 2 school friends, Bianca and Silke to Oktoberfest, for the third time.

It was around 12 and we already couldn't enter the Schottenhammel Zelt. We moved to Hacker Pschorr Zelt, but there we waited to find table for more than 30 minutes, without any success.

The tent beside the Hacker Pschorr tent is the Hofbräu Festzelt. It is the biggest tent in the Oktoberfest and there... we finally got a table.

Olympia Park - Munich

Walking around the Olympia stadium in Munich

After going to Nymphenburg castle and having lunch, we directly went to the Olympia stadium. To go to the Olympia stadium, you have to take the U-Bahn line 3 until the last station, Olympiazentrum.

The area around the Olympia stadium (Olympiastadion) is quite large. It is a nice place to go jogging or to have a walk and it's also suitable for tourist, as long as the weather is fine.
There are several things you can see there, such as the Olympia Tower, BMW Museum, the Olympia lake and of course the stadium.

Nymphenburg Palace und Park

Schloss Nymphenburg und Park
23 September 2006

Although I've been living in Munich for almost 1 year, I've never been to Nymphenburg castle before. It's located not far from the central of the city. You probably need 15 to 20 minutes to go there using the Tram line 17 from the central station.

Second Visit to Oktoberfest

Fischer Vroni Tent, 19. September 2006

Today is my second visit to Oktoberfest. I joined some colleagues from my department and we got table in the Fischer Vroni Tent. Well even during the week, if you come late to Oktoberfest, it's not easy to get a whole table, doesn't matter in which tent.

1 new thing for me that I saw in Oktoberfest for the first time, is the Steckerl Fish (smoked fish on the stick). In front of the tent, there are many of those fishes, which are smoked freshly before they are served. I might try these someday, although the price is other than cheap :-).
