Meunchen Flomarkt

Munich flea market.
This is the once a year flea market held where Oktoberfest is held. At the same time Frühlingsfest, spring festival, is held. Or I call it the unofficial start of Dirndl season. Great weather, first sunny weekend in a month, brought out scads of people. Of course there was a great number of must haves.... For souvenir hunters I suggest the weekly, Fri-Sat Flomarkt at the old Olympic stadium rather than new at the stores.



Chess set for your gear head...


Krüge of course


And??


Nixed for the balcony


Get your souvenirs at Flomarkts

The red pots had your name written on them.
Glad to see that your health issues haven't hurt your eye.

Got a couple of chuckles out of "Chess set for your gear head..." and
"Nixed for the balcony".
