Europe Trip...any suggestions?

Novtec1: Where in Germany are you? Stationed?

I guess where to go depends on where you're capable of going. Ireland has some great places, touring Scotland and hitting some castles and Scotch distilleries is always a blast. Of course England has its share of nice castles.

France, I'd definitely recommend Paris. Of course the aforementioned Tour d'Eiffel, Notre Dame, Louvre and other attractions are good choices. If you're into museums there are other good ones as well, such as Musee d'Orsay.

Germany, it depends on if you want picturesque German alp towns or want to hit the cities to live it up in the nice clubs. For the Bavarian type things you could hit Garmisch-Partenkirchen and hit up the Zugspitze for some mountain fun. Berchtesgaden is a good choice for a neat little town with some good local beers, of course there are plenty of those throughout Germany.

I didn't care much for Italy, especially Venice, but you may enjoy it. I hear Amsterdam is pretty fun but I was a little young to understand much about it. Know what I mean, Vern?
