Boppard Germany (NOT Koblenz, but really close...)

---

We randomly chose to get off the train in Boppard (mostly because we just liked the name). We were happy to find it chalk full of riesling wine (our favorite) and elderly German tourists (also tons of fun). Today Boppard just got a whole lot younger. Oh yeah, there also just happened to be a riesling wine festival going on. Sick.

If there's not an escalator, gondola, or elevator up this hill then I'm not going. Oh, there's a chair lift? Perfect. Chair lifts I can do.

Riesling wine festival. It's not our fault.

riesling
Oktoberfest: excessive, portions measured in liters, out of control in general.
Wine fest: classy, portions measured in ounces, no policemen necessary.

Okay Mom and Dad this is the last alcohol related blog post for a while. We promise. Enough with the AA jokes please.
