Whirling about to Polka music
This dear old gentleman was demonstrating a little German jig!
This is just an example of the astonishingly crazy hats people were wearing at this festival!

Visual Feast of Oktoberfest in Leavenworth
Although Polka music isn't on my top-ten most loved genres of music, played in the right setting, the music is transformed to almost-cool. The Oktoberfest featured several Polka bands (as well as current music). Paul and I had such a fabulous time! So much to see! Crazy hats, mixed with North Face fleece jackets and traditional German dress...sometimes it was difficult to focus on one think to look at!

Paul and I took pictures in the impossibly cute downtown Leavenworth!



Accordion music never sounded so cool! This guy was phenomenal, so funny and a little self-deprecating!
The chandelier Paul and plan on having one day!
Sparkling rock candies! I couldn't resist taking a picture of the colors!
A beautifully lit church in downtown Leavenworth.
Maybe Paul will dress up as a knight, instead of "Wendell," his Canadian personality for Halloween!

Do they leave the Christmas lights up year-round? I've only been there in the winter.

Leavenworth is such a nice place...and it's been waaaay too long.
