Ernie Visits, Rosenheim Herbstfest and a new CAR!

Steve and Ernie
Steve's fraternity brother and our friend Ernie visited for a few days. He came to pick up his brand spanking new BMW. This is a spectacular reason to visit!

Ernie was here for a few days before he could get his car so we spent one day at the Rosenheimer Herbstfest. This festival is a warm-up for Oktoberfest. It has all of the same things: an opening day parade, beer tents. fun rides and games and good Bavarian food. Also, it gave me another opportunity to wear my dirndl! It was a beautiful day and we had a great time there with Ernie. Rachel and her friend Isabelle.

She carries all of those with ONE hand!

Prost!

The ice cream is good too!




Ernie's BMW car day was next on our agenda. BMW has a fabulous first class setup to make their buyers feel very special. Steve and Ernie first had a tour of the BMW factory and museum. Our friend Regina also joined us so she and I did some shopping while they attended the tour. We then met Ernie and Steve at BMW World lounge and had drinks and snacks while we waited for his car to be brought up. The lounge is similar to a first class airline lounge and Ernie was Mr Joynt throughout the process.

Once his car was up we walked down to the presentation deck. There Ernie had about an hour of instruction about all of the features of his car. Then we got to drive it out of BMW World and take it home. So cool.




Ernie left the next day to tour Italy, Austria and Belgium on a bier tour. Yes, bier not wine! It was wonderful having him visit and terrific that we got to be a part of his new car experience.
