I Miss Germany. (photos)

Last summer I stayed in germany with relatives for the world cup, me and my whole family. I drank a mas of beer every night, watched soccer, yelled and screamed in the streets, I could walk around with my friends yelling and screaming for teams I dont even affiliate with. I went to Nurburgring, my dad rented us a Cayman S for the day. It was my first track experience ever (i'm 18), and it was at NURBURGRING. Trip to Zuffenhausen. What a summer, now it seems like all ive been doing for the past few months is study study study. Why can't it be summer again.

Go back to the same areas right now and you will have a wonderful time.

Christmas in Germany is excellent and the markets in Nurnburg are one of the best in the world.

I remember when the Veyron came out, everyone was all hyped up because theyve never seen a 16 cylinder before. This was 20 or so years ago.

Yep, I did Christmas and New Years in Bamberg ten years ago and it was a riot. They really know how to party and they make a real big deal of New Years. The 'bahn is aweful scary in the snow though!

Based on the title of this thread, I was under the impression thinkfloyd was going to tell us he looked something like this....
