I've never been a fan of the way we punish criminals in the USA. But, I have also never been able to conceive of a better system. Until now.The ultimate punishment...send all crooks to Munich's BMW Museum. Excruciatingly painful, it gives the word "boring" an even more boring definition. Even the most devout car enthusiast would rather jump off the Empire State Building and get their eyelid caught on a nail.

Episode 35--Germany: Dachau Concentration Camp

The gate at Dachau says: Arbeit Macht Frei, which translates to "Work will set you free."

This is a journal where I will ration my words. I have seen pictures of the Holocaust. I have watched movies where men were thrown into trains like sacks of flour. But, nothing affected me as much as when I walked through the iron gates of Dachau Concentration Camp. "Arbeit Macht Frei" it says, or "work will set you free."

Episode 34--Germany: Oktoberfest--Two Beer or not Two Beer

Even though Kristi is an only child, she still knows how to share with Carter and I! In Germany they call a "pretzel" a "bretzel", but who cares what they call pretzels, when they taste that good!

"Send the Americans to me!" Andre shouted into his "handy" or cell phone. If Barbie was a German doll, she would be dating Andre, not Ken.

Finally enough! Only those Germans know what a woman really wants....lots and lots of toilet paper!

I got attacked in the train station. Fortunately it was by two German friends (Mick and Cat) who Kristi and I met two years ago in California.
