New (from Europe)

[Arcticdude]

The inspection folks are sticklers there! I was there with US tags, so I didn't have to worry about that aspect. Spent most of my time in Bavaria, but got into France, Austria, Switzerland and Italy. I couldn't go east much, but my brother had fun doing so. He came over for a week or so. Took my car one day and headed towards the E German border. As he gets nearer, he's seeing LOTS of signs "No Military Personnel". Since he wasn't military and is an attorney, he drove right up to the border, got out and walked across the bridge and started chatting with the E German border guards!! They chatted for a bit and he walks BACK across the bridge, where NOW the hidden Americans decide to arrest him! I had to have a friend drive me up to the border to get him out of jail. He was really peeved, because he'd walked right past the morons who arrested him, when they didn't stop him from going over in the first place.

Ah, fun times!
