If you eat pretzels then you can drink more beer. This is perfect for Oktoberfest.   Prehistory:   Cascada de Oro Okt 2023 A02 by Philippe, auf Flickr   Boxes of tools, lanterns, clothing and drinks were transported into the mine on rafts. The salt is chopped from the rock, crushed and shoveled into boxes. The box is then covered with logs and transported out again on rafts. The boxes are then lifted up from the beach using a construction crane. The salt is taken to the factory where it is further processed and then sold. The factory also produced and sells construction cranes.   Cascada de Oro Okt 2023 A03 by Philippe, auf Flickr   Everyone is looking forward to this year’s Oktoberfest. The festival is very popular and is always attended by many locals and visitors from other nations. It is also very popular with pirates who usually take part more or less unrecognized. It would of course be better if the flag was changed before sailing into the harbor. Luckily, the city guard is very tolerant during the celebrations. It is a peaceful festival where everyone has fun.   Cascada de Oro Okt 2023 A04 by Philippe, auf Flickr   There are different attractions in many places in Punta Sur. Something was also set up on Cascada de Oro beach. There is a festival stand with beer and one with bratwurst and pretzels. There are many hungry and, above all, thirsty guests here. The helpful city guard is currently delivering some beer barrels in a rowing boat. The miners are particularly looking forward to this. It means finished work. On this day they only worked for a short time so that the mine could be visited. Now and in the next few days they are taking part in Oktoberfest.   Cascada de Oro Okt 2023 A05 by Philippe, auf Flickr   There are 78 minifigures in total on the diorama.
