In true German tradition, Oktoberfest is planned as close as possible to the first day of autumn, September 21st. Can’t make it to Munich this year? Celebrate right here in Buffalo! Enjoy a slice of Germany in our very own biergarten in the main concourse! Food, authentic German beers, soft drinks, and official Central Terminal merchandise will be available for purchase.

Come out and have a beer, dance a polka or two, or just enjoy an evening with friends!

It’s mission is to preserve the historic 1929 New York Central train terminal on Buffalo’s East Side and help restore it to it’s former prominence in Buffalo’s architectural landscape.

Sleeping Girls

After two nights of not much sleep, this was the scene in on our couch this afternoon.

Basilica di Sant’Ambrogio

ByDerek

Just one quick shot tonight.  This is the courtyard of Basilica di Sant’Ambrogio.  I love the moss growing in the cobblestones, and the light rain really makes the color stand out.  Someday I’ll have to come back to this shot and add in a non-blah sky, but for now… just look at everything else.  🙂
