Tours

Alright, Ricardo and I are going to start planning a famous scientist and/or composer tour in, and around, Germany. We are going to try and make it to the cities of Bach, Beethoven, Marie Curie, Einstein, etc. Anyone have any recommendations as to cities or places to see relating to these people or others?

Cheers,
Rocco

Need Motivation?

These pictures not only remind me how little motivation I need to get pumped up and excited about watching our boys take on the world...

Our schedule is pretty booked for the first 2 weeks and a bit strung out the second two weeks. Currently, we have tickets to the following matches for the World Cup:

June 9 - Germany v. Costa Rica (Munich)
June 12 - USA v. Czech Republic (Gelsenkirchen)
June 15 - England v. Trinidad and Tobago (Nuremberg)
June 17 - USA v. Italy (Kaiserslautern) - no tickets yet, but working on it
June 18 - France v. Korea (Leipzig)
June 19 - Ukraine v. Saudi Arabia (Hamburg)
June 20 - Paraguay v. Trinidad and Tobago (Kaiserslautern)
June 21 - Netherlands v. Argentina (Frankfurt)
June 22 - USA v. Ghana (Nuremberg)

Is 7 matches in 7 days in completely different cities a bad thing or A WHOLE LOT OF FUN?

Cheers,
Rocco
