After visiting a Wild West Town here in Germany, I wondered what it would look like if Serenity would come to this town...

There's a "Wild West Town" in Germany?
hehehe...
That's funny. I mean, I can understand the "German Villages" in the US since a large number of Germans immigrated to the US...
It's something else to think that the "Wild West" has been exported to Germany...
What a hoot!
To they say "Vat in Tarnation?!"
Heheh...
I love German culture, I just think it's funny when cultures outside of America bring 'American' Culture to their country...
I am sure it is just as funny as the Americanized version of German Culture is to Germans...

ok, the proportions of the ship are not correct, I admit it ;-)
Well, yes, it's kinda funny to find American culture here in Germany, but I like it anyway. Actually, it's not a real city, it was created for entertaining purposes, but it has a nice look and it feels good walking around in the "wild west atmosphere". And...I think one of the guys who runs it comes from Canada :D

I had a friend once who had a fascinating record of German cowboy songs (including the classic Revolver Jim, aus Texas"). Of course, the name "Jim" was pronounced "Yim".

Oh, the idea of a native German walking into "Oktoberfest" at Busch Gardens boggles the mind. :)
But more seriously, there were a series of Westerns written by German author Karl May in the late 1800s that were and still are classics over there, never mind the fact that the closest May ever got was a brief stopover in NYC around the year 1900. It set off a german fascination with the American West that's still going pretty strong.
