For someone who hates airplanes, you sure picked the wrong service branch; only one of them can get you to Europe without a plane, and it ain't the Air Farce. But, yeah, I have wanted to see Germany for quite a while, Bavaria in particular, and there was small chance of skipping Neushcwanstein even before showing it to the wife just now (however, she has informed me I am buying it for her.... )
Well the moment he told me he proposed over there I immediately said 'Paris, Rome, Venice or Fairy Castle?' and he replied 'Fairy Castle, dude I hate Paris more than you do' - incidentally I happen to like Northern France it's just Paris id dirty and smelly, so is Venice. Rome is great. Anyway its not that I hate flying... though I do hate helicopters, I just hate being in cramped quarters with people I don't know and unable to smoke. I have a touch of Agoraphobia rather than Acrophobia. I used to work for the air force as a civilian, planes themselves only bug me a bit more than a bus, smallcraft don't... trains don't, which breaks the crowd pattern [shrugs].
I'd forgotten about BG's fondness for Germany, hate to say it but I tend to forget anything people don't tell me directly beyond stuff like nationality, area of study/hobby, and ideological tendency.
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.

No worries; I usually have a pretty thick skin, and you were not too harsh.

Stationed there for a little over three years... I get the impression I'm missing something here?

Paris is dirty, but Rome is great? We must have visited different cities.
