The last beer has been swallowed in the Musikfest mugs for 2006 but not before a fairly decent last day.
I don't really have anything to say about music today/tonight because other then passing by a few tents I didn't sit to hear any. I spent my last day of the fest taking photos of memorable locations, art, people, signs and even flowers. You see, I keep a photo album of my fest favorites and most memorable moments. Corny maybe but it's nice to have. Just like any other album, you can look back on how things have changed over the years, the people you've shared it with and some funny people you've seen.
After my memory card was full, we hit up some food tents to get rid of our last tickets. I had really wanted my meat on a stick from Hogar Crea but by the time we went by they were sold out. Not cool. So we settled on shrimp on a stick from some place by Volkzplatz, a cheese steak from Brass Rail and some lime fizz from Mr. Bill. Not a bad deal if I do say so myself.
Then came the fireworks. I love fireworks. They were just okay to me though. They were nice and pretty and loud but when it came time for the finale, it was like, "Where is the finale? Is that it?". Then after people started walking away saying how bad the "finale" was, the actual finale came. I must say it wasn't much better though then the finale we all thought we say the first time, just a few more pops to make it obvious that it was in fast the finale.
All in all I had a pretty good time this year. Tomorrow when I'm more awake I'll comment on my likes and dislikes and see who all agree or disagrees with me. I might even have some suggestions for improvements for next year...
