I Shall Never Again Make Fun Of Polka

Deep in the boonies of British Columbia, a little town on Bradner road holds an annual Oktoberfest in November. Bavarian food, music and fun are always on the menu. As is the most famous libation all throughout the month of October - Beer. We went not knowing what to expect, just that we were in for a night of hilarity with some good friends. After we'd had some bratwursts (the rest of the traditional Bavarian fare was present but I can't even begin to name them all) and a couple pints of dark beer later, we joined everyone on the dancefloor (sans lederhosen) for some traditional and modern Bavarian dances. Neil Diamond, Elvis and the Dire Straits remixed with a polka beat made for an interesting soundtrack. There was even an impromptu Ukranian Hopak dance circle. No, we did not dance to Boney M's Rasputin. That's where I draw the line.

Here are some of the pictures from the evening.
