UK, Germany, UK

I'm off to Germany this afternoon, I come back Friday evening.  Just in time to be here when Suzie and the kids arrive on Saturday.  I'm going to a small town outside Stuttgart called Nabern.  Wish me luck, my German is as impressive as my Japanese.....sadly, I think my Chinese is better.  

While it's work that's taking me to Germany, I'll be keeping my eyes and ears peeled for cool vacation ideas for the family.  There's a huge castle in Stuttgart (don't think I'll have time to see it this trip) but I'm thinking it might be a good place to take the family sometime.
