Auf Wiedersehen, meine Herren.
 
I'm flying out tonight with my wife and youngest son to visit our oldest son in Germany for 3 weeks. We're spending 2 days in Iceland on the way and plan to make a series of 3-4 day trips out of our home base in Wiesbaden.

On the itinerary: the Black Forest, Alsace, Prague, Southern Bavaria, the Rhein/Mosel Valleys, the Ardennes, Brugges and Amsterdam.

We return on July 6. I'll be thinking about you schlubs.;)

Sounds wonderful!

Better hurry though - I hear Amsterdam is changing their laws, tourists will no longer be able to, um, partake: residents only ;)

The nerve of those tolerant Dutch. I can still take my wife for a stroll through the Red Light district though.:eek:

Very Cool.. Relax -- we'll save your spot...

And DRIVE carefully.. If you do.. I realized that after 5 or 6 trips to Europe that Perhaps I ought to buy a Drivers handbook in the local bookstore. You'd be amazed at what all those squiggly lines mean!!!

Not to worry. I had a Porsche for the 8 years I lived there. It'll be a downgrade to drive my son's BMW 325i. ;)

Be careful stepping over all of the dead bodies lining the streets, left there by those European Soshialist healthcare systems.:p

Ansonsten, genießen Sie Ihre Reise. Wünschte, ich wäre mit dir.:)

It is even more fun in England driving on the left.:D

Europeans are OK as long as you remember that the left lane is for passing.
