The reason Oktoberfest is in September...
Just to clear up the confusion in the other posts, O-fest was originally a one-day thing on the first Sunday in October (hence Oktoberfest). It proved so popular that they decided to extend it, and since the weather is less bad earlier rather than later, it now lasts two weeks, and ends on the first Sunday in October (unless... Reunification Day, Oct. 3, falls AFTER the first Sunday, in which case it lasts until that day).<BR>Hope this helps!

Rita - <BR><BR>I've seen a number of posts from you recently about your upcoming trip, and all of them indicate that you're not looking forward to it and that you've "resigned yourself" to not enjoying yourself in Paris - based on what you've read on this board. The ironic thing is, along with the negative things you've read, this board is FULL of threads with detailed information and absolute praise of Paris. While it's not my favorite city in Europe, it does have a lot to offer. I can't imagine why you are so focused on the things that you think you will not like BEFORE even going. If you go and you hate it - fair enough. But why all the negativity before even boarding the plane?
