Getting there & away
Kuta is a hassle to reach by public transport. From Mandalika terminal in Mataram you'll have to go via Praya (5000Rp), then to Sengkol (3000Rp) and finally to Kuta (2000Rp). You'll usually have to change buses at all these places. Many people opt for the Perama shuttle bus option from Senggigi or the Gili Islands to Kuta.

Diarrhea kills 4, downs 70 in CamSur
MANILA, Philippines – Four people have died from diarrhea in the province of Camarines Sur, according to health officials.
Three of the victims are residents of Brgy. La Purisima in the town of Nabua. They were identified as Cornerlio Espalmado, Aurelio Nagales and Tering Lomeda.
One of the victims, identified as Jesus Daliva, was from Brgy. Sto. Domingo.
Authorities said at least 70 others have been affected by the illness.
Several residents said that while the town's source of drinking water is clean, water from its wells used to wash plates and kitchenware may have been contaminated.
"'Yung balon malapit sa CR kaya posibleng diyan nagmumula," said Aurora Beltran, one of the residents of Brgy. La Purisima.
Health workers continue to remind the residents to boil drinking water and wash hands regularly to prevent the spread of the illness. -- Report from Jonathan Magistrado, ABS-CBN News Bicol

hi everyone,
We're surprised to announce that we will be opening for Smashing Pumpkins this fall. It should be crazy and we hope some of you can make it. We're also working on putting together more tours for Europe (we will do our best to make up some of the shows we missed this summer), South America, Asia, and Austrailia.
Okay. Thanks for caring.

Americans Overwhelmingly Support Banning Discrimination among Federal Contractors
March 28, 2012 by Michael Cole-Schwartz, Director of Communications
Americans overwhelmingly support banning discrimination among federal contractors, according to a new poll released today. According to the poll, 73 percent of 2012 likely voters favor an Executive Order that would ban federal contractors from discriminating based on sexual orientation and gender identity. The polling also shows that support remains strong regardless of age, race, education, political ideology, and a number of other demographics. Learn more.
The poll also shows 87 percent already think it's illegal to discriminate based on sexual orientation or gender identity – only 5 percent know it remains legal.
Policies of non-discrimination are among the best practices of corporate America. Our Corporate Equality Index reveals 86 percent of Fortune 500 companies have their own policies against sexual orientation non-discrimination and nearly half cover gender identity. Just a decade ago, 61 percent had sexual orientation policies and only three percent covered gender identity.
Under a standing Executive Order from the Johnson administration, government contractors are barred from discriminating on the basis of race, color, religion, sex or national origin. HRC first proposed that the administration add sexual orientation and gender identity to that list in our "Blueprint for Positive Change" – a series of policy recommendations we presented to the Obama administration shortly after the election in November 2008. As part of a coalition advocating for this order, HRC has met with officials across the administration including at the White House to advocate the President take this important step.
The national survey of 800 likely voters was conducted for HRC by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research from November 9 – 13, 2011. It has a margin of error of +/- 3.46 percentage points.

Good choice, it is always better when you make the right decision regarding paperwork.
The cry baby teachers are the cause of so many of our problems. Since they will all have smaller classes, maybe they need smaller pay checks to match their reduction in class size. After all, size does matter.
Wonder who "leaked" that one to the press.
This is just what we don't need. A tired old in house deadbeat who is just in it for the money and benefits.
Scott is better than Sink but it is really too bad that we did not have better choices. I voted for Scott but it was just a lesser evil choice.

The truth is that Terry will continue to do nothing, that is what he does best, he made a career of it !
The system is in real trouble now with this failure of a principal Terry on board for the next 4 years. He was load as a principal and he will be useless as a boardmember. I can't belive there were idiots who actually supported him.

The manager - he rules with an iron fist, do not attempt to book thru his staff without his knowledge. If red formica is your thing, the room will be fine. If you like cold showers, go for it, hot water was off for 2 days. Watch booking on 1st floor of hotel facing street, Party place opposite doesent stop till 5AM. Rooms are certainly not clean.
Very sociable and great place to enjoy San Telmo and BA in general.
Obviously price reflects the difference to other places when you are in a private room and it is a busy time

Staff, service, common areas, breakfast
Rooms, bathroom/shower facilities
This is a wonderful hostel and probably the best I've stayed in, in all of South America. The staff were fantastic, friendly and helpful. You can organise all of your tours through the hostel. The rooms and beds are also very comfortable.
The kitchen and kitchen equipment needs an upgrade. This was such a good hostel but I felt this was one aspect lacking.
super staff
street a little noisy
good double room with bathroom. Towels included.
Friendly staff, good breakfast, location, not a party hostel
perfecto diez , the perfect 10. this should be what all hostels should be like - great staff , location , rooms , facilities , and activities
maybe some fruit for breakfast.
This is the best one hostel that I ever had stayed. The location is good, just 3 blocks to the subway line and close to different famous places in Buenos Aires, like Casa Rosado, Puerto Madero, Etc. The staff organize every day activities to share and socialize with the other traveler. This hostel is a good place to relax and meet with people of different parts of the world. Some time the travelers prefer stay at hostel than go outside because inside you feel like your own home.
The wifi not reach some bedrooms.
Great atmosphere, like nothing I experienced before! The staff are very friendly and will help fixing and planing almost anything for you. Nice breakfast and comfortable beds.
Wifi doesn't reach the rooms. No soaps and the shared bathrooms. Guests are allowed to smoke in the open air yard, and the smoke smell can reach the rooms...very annoying! It would be the best hostel I've ever stayed at if it doesn't have this issue.
Clean really good showers Good kitchen facilities Friendly and helpful staff
A bit noisy on the street side Maybe some double glazing could help.
Excellent! Recommended to any backpacker going to BA!
The cleanliness. The breakfast.
I hate when the toilet is not on the same room as the shower, but I think most people don't see it as a problem so it might not be a big deal.
The Staff is very nice and helpfull. The Hostel is clean and all the furniture is new.
Having never back packed before I was a little anxious about staying in a hostel but I am glad I did! America del Sur offers a great service to solo travelers, couples and people of all ages. They organize daily events including: city tours, tango lessons, trips to polo and soccer matches. Hostel is conveniently located, is extremely clean and the staff are super friendly. Overall, a great hostel to stay in!
The staff at America Del Sur was amazing and very helpful with questions. The hostel itself is clean and air conditioned. I felt that my belongings were safe at the hostel as well. It is located in San Telmo which is near all the major historical sites you would want to visit on your first couple days in BA. I was a solo traveler and wanted my own room so booked a double room, so it was a bit pricier than avg hostel cost in BA, but if you are a couple then it would be a good deal.
Amazing staff! Very clean! Nice shower! Perfect!

Targeted drug delivery to enhance efficacy and shorten treatment duration in disseminated Mycobacterium avium infection in mice
Objectives: Improvement of the efficacy of drug treatment in mycobacterial infection by the development and application of targeted drug delivery. Methods: In disseminated Mycobacterium avium infection in mice, the relative efficacy of the antimycobacterial agents that are currently used in combination therapy was investigated. Next, the effect of the addition of targeted delivery of amikacin to the infected tissues in the initial phase of treatment was studied. Amikacin was chosen because of its unique rapid and high mycobacterial killing capacity. As drug delivery tool, long-circulating sterically stabilized liposomes were used. Results: Treatment with clarithromycin alone daily (6 days aweek) slowly killed most of the mycobacteria in the lung, liver, spleen, inguinal and mesenterial lymph nodes. However, after 24 weeks of treatment, persistence of substantial numbers of mycobacteria in the infected organs was observed. The addition of ethambutol to the clarithromycin regimen did not significantly enhance the efficacy of treatment, neither did rifampicin as a third agent. In contrast, the addition of liposomal amikacin in the initial phase of therapy resulted in rapid and complete elimination of the mycobacteria in all infected organs within 12 weeks of treatment without relapse of infection. As a result, total treatment duration could be significantly reduced to 12 weeks. Conclusions: In M. avium infection in mice, the approach of targeted drug delivery was successful. The rapid decrease in the mycobacterial load followed by complete killing, including the persistent mycobacteria considered responsible for relapse of infection, allows a significant reduction of the total treatment duration.

As the temperature rises, our homes get targeted by an influx of ants and cockroaches. When it's REALLY hot, however, flies become our number one enemy. Why in the summer? At the end of autumn, flies prepare to overwinter. They remain in their pupal casings where they secrete "antifreeze protein" which protects them from the harsh winter elements. As summer approaches, the warmer weather signals the end of a long winter and fly populations will continue to build during the summer month.Flies can travel hundreds of meters away from their breeding ground, especially when caught in a wind current, which makes the task of controlling your fly infestation a never ending one.Most flies lay their eggs in moist, humid places that also serve as a food source for their larvae. Garbage, rotting vegetables, stagnant water and exposed food serve as the ideal breeding ground for this intruder.Although house flies cannot bite, they carry diseases which have the potential to spread into our homes, contaminating our food which in extreme circumstances, could result in typhoid fever, diarrhea, cholera and pin worms.How do you get rid of flies?• Remove garbage at least twice a week.• Keep garbage cans as far away from doors as possible.• Keep doors and windows closed.• Keep exposed food covered.Bear in mind, however, that the key to successful fly control begins outside your home. Helpful hints for outside:• Outside areas should be cleaned regularly - if you suffer from a very serious fly infestation, treating the premises with a mister or blower is helpful. • Outdoor sprays also work well to kill and repel flies. Spray all outdoor areas.Most over-the-counter fly control products do not contain the same active ingredients as their professional counterparts. Do you have a fly problem in your home? Share your tips on getting rid of them because you never know – YOUR advice could help thousands!

Yannos Papantoniou, Greece's Economy and Finance Minister from 1994 to 2001, 15 May 2012
ATHENS – Renewed turbulence in the eurozone bond market underlines the need to reappraise the policies now being pursued in order to overcome Europe's sovereign-debt crisis. Indeed, recent election results in France and Greece, reflecting a much broader anti-austerity mood, leave Europe's authorities with little choice.
The European Union, the European Central Bank, and private-sector lenders have spent more than €1 trillion over the past two years, but the eurozone remains in no better shape today than in the autumn of 2009, when the full scale of Greece's fiscal problem was revealed. Meanwhile, the eurozone's recession is deepening and unemployment is rising.
Moreover, skepticism about the eurozone authorities' and leading powers' determination and/or competence to ensure the currency's viability is increasing systemic risk. For example, the European Investment Bank now inserts a drachma clause in its loan deals with Greek enterprises.
The same message is conveyed by the worries recently expressed by the Bundesbank with regard to the build-up of so-called Target 2 balances. In case of a breakup of the eurozone, these balances cause losses for the Eurosystem and member states' central banks. Indeed, many eurozone central banks reportedly have reduced their holdings of euro reserves, seeking to diversify into non-traditional currencies.
What caused the debt crisis, and how to resolve it, remain in dispute. What is clear is that a key factor has been the persistence of large imbalances within the eurozone –current-account deficits on the periphery, mirrored by surpluses in the core – owing mainly to differences in productivity and competitiveness. Excess savings have been transferred from the core to the periphery, creating conditions for extensive borrowing and accumulation of debt.
Debt growth exposed critical weaknesses in the eurozone's economic constitution: national debts are the responsibility of member countries, but the common currency is without a sovereign. Unlike most central banks, the ECB cannot act as a lender of the last resort, which, in conjunction with the absence of common bonds (Eurobonds), induced large-scale speculation on intra-European national debts.
Resolving the crisis inevitably includes action on both fronts. The causes of the persistent imbalances should be addressed through a combined effort at fiscal consolidation and strengthened competitiveness, with structural reforms focusing on liberalizing markets and encouraging wage flexibility.
At the same time, the eurozone must be equipped with the instruments needed to restore stability and prevent the recurrence of crisis conditions. This agenda includes centralizing European debt through Eurobonds, mobilizing sufficient rescue funds, allowing the ECB to exercise the full range of central-banking powers, and reinforcing policy coordination in order to sustain economic activity in austerity-stricken member countries.
But sharp disagreements exist over the content and timing of the policy response. The weaker countries accept the need for reforms, but favor a longer time horizon for fiscal-deficit reduction in order to encourage a return to growth. They also demand faster implementation of the necessary changes to the eurozone's economic governance in order to create a more stable and hospitable environment for fiscal consolidation and reform.
A prolonged recession, punctuated by high – or prohibitive – borrowing costs, makes achieving either the fiscal or the reform targets increasingly difficult, if not impossible. The burden of adjustment cannot fall exclusively on the deficit countries – unless, that is, a moral element of "punishment" is involved.
The core countries, led by Germany, distrust the over-indebted countries' determination to pursue reforms if their financing conditions are eased. Moreover, they oppose key changes in the eurozone's economic governance.
They could envisage the issuance of Eurobonds only after the completion of real economic and fiscal adjustment. They reject the use of ECB credit as a substitute for adjustment, because it would eventually fuel inflation. And they question the sustainability of economic and fiscal unification – allowing transfers to the weaker countries – in the absence of political unification involving loss of sovereignty.
If the stalemate persists, the debt crisis will soon reach new peaks. Continued recession and recurrent speculative attacks in the bond markets will prevent at least some over-indebted countries from attaining their adjustment targets, creating conditions for political crisis within the eurozone and individual countries. It will not be possible to postpone indefinitely strategic decisions concerning the euro's future.
It has been argued that in such circumstances, political will emerges, deus ex machina, and saves the day. But it is preferable to avoid reaching that stage.
As the crisis develops, accidents may happen that authorities find hard to control. Moreover, in some quarters of Europe, the euro's survival is viewed as requiring a cull: its membership should be reduced to those countries with convergent economic structures and performance, notwithstanding the enormous economic and social disruption that would be unleashed, or the heavy blow to Europe's global influence.
Given Europe's current political balance, and taking into account its time-honored tradition of muddling through, the following stand out as minimum requirements for steering clear of the precipice:
- A commitment to issue Eurobonds at a fixed date in the near future, as well as setting in motion the legal process for doing so. This would bring down borrowing costs for over-indebted countries and support economic activity.
- Implementation of a Marshall Plan-type initiative to finance investment in the weaker countries. Mobilizing resources in the EU budget and significantly increasing the lending capacity of the EIB would counter the recessionary effects of austerity.
- Relax deficit-reduction targets for countries particularly hard-hit by recession, while easing monetary policy as much as existing rules permit. Higher German inflation is part of the adjustment process.
A growing chorus of European and world opinion is pushing in the direction of more growth-oriented policies. The resistance will be strong. Time, however, is running out. The next few months are critical for the eurozone's future.

Answered Questions
View this question
Is it possible to lighten the areola and nipples as well as make them smaller? What are the side effects, risks, and the cost for such a procedure?
Currently the best intervention for lightening the areola or any pigmented area would be with skin bleachers, such as hydroquinone and kojic acid that will remove pigment with continued use. You should be able to receive guidance in this regard from an ASAPS-member plastic surgeon. Cost would be ongoing, and would include charges for office visits and products. Costs may vary depending on your geographic area and the surgeon you select. Risks and side effects are minimal, assuming the patient is not allergic to the product(s). This treatment would be contraindicated during pregnancy or breast-feeding.

I have one breast much larger than the other. I want to have breast reduction to even out their size. Before surgery, how does a surgeon determine how much to remove? Do they weigh each breast before surgery to ensure the right amount of fat is removed or is it decided visually?
During the physical exam, the surgeon estimates how much extra breast tissue there is. During surgery, as the tissue is removed, the surgeon will compare the two breasts to get the size match as close as possible.
View this question
I want to have liposuction in the thigh area to reduce unsightly bulges and cellulite. I'm 37 and want to have a baby within the next year. Should I wait to have the surgery after pregnancy? My fear is that pregnancy will bring on excessive weight gain and the problem areas may worsen, so I would like to have it taken care of now. What is your opinion?
Your end result will be much more predictable if you wait to have your surgery until you have completed your family size. Your best success will be achieved by taking a year after your childbirth to get on a good diet and exercise program, lose as much weight as you desire or are able, and then proceed with liposuction if you are still not happy with the appearance of your thighs. You may also want to consider some of the new treatments for cellulite after your liposuction....Cellulite is difficult to treat, but the combination of liposuction and laser assisted cellulite treatments can create a much smoother appearance.

Fountain Valley Trail
Littleton, CO
Fountain Valley Trail
Roxborough State Park is a showcase for the dusky saw-toothed remnants of an ancient time. Rough, rust-colored sentinels of the Fountain Formation jut skyward from the varied landscape at various locations along the Front Range—at the Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, in Red Rocks Park in Morrison—but Roxborough is home to a very striking cluster. The ochre expanse of this remarkable geology leans toward the steep backdrop of the Front Range as though it aspires to something higher, a forest of 300-million-year-old rocks that erupts from the oak brush and colorful prairie grasses of the high plains in a grand display.

Story Engineering: Mastering the 6 Core Competencies of Successful Writing
by Larry Brooks
by Larry Brooks
I was attracted towards this book because of the title since I am an engineer and I have to tell you the book lives up to its title. First of all I want to thank Larry for sharing his knowledge about story writing with us. I am of the belief, if you know it you should share it with others! I absolutely loved this book and after reading it I feel confident that I can attempt to write my first fiction book. I am an organized person and therefore I loved the different checklists in this book. Larry has defined and simplified fiction writing for us in this book. He has made it so methodical that it makes the daunting task appear doable.

ROME (AP) — A bus bringing retired police officers to a national convention veered off a highway in northern Italy on Saturday and plunged into a canal, killing at least five people, officials said.
More than a dozen others were injured, some of them seriously, when the bus broke through the barricades of the A13 highway near Padua and ended up partially submerged in water, firefighters and news reports said.
Rescue crews recovered five bodies and extracted several other injured passengers from the bus, Padua firefighter Mauro Bacelle told Sky TG24 television.
Police divers were brought in to ensure no victims were thrown into the canal, the LaPresse news agency said.
Bacelle said the stretch of the highway where the crash occurred isn't particularly risky and that the crash occurred well after daybreak, at around 8 a.m.
The bus was bringing retired carabinieri paramilitary police officers from Aprilia, south of Rome, to a national carabinieri convention in Jesolo, near Venice, reports said.

England blow as Eoin Morgan is ruled out of World Cup
England's worst World Cup fears were realised today when their leading one-day batsman Eoin Morgan was ruled out of the tournament with a fractured finger.
Morgan, who has progressed from promising Irish recruit to his adopted country's most complete limited-overs player, will watch from home as Ravi Bopara takes his place in the 15-man squad.
Morgan initially sustained the injury in the fourth one-day international in Adelaide but played on before X-rays more than a week later detected the break in the middle finger of his left hand.
Such is Morgan's importance to England's one-day strategy, not least in the sub-continent where his array of innovative laps and sweeps are most useful, that consideration was given to carrying him through the group phase in the hope of utilising him in the knockout stages.
The injury is worse than hoped, though, and team director Andy Flower indicated he would not have been fit to play any part.
Speaking on the team's arrival at Heathrow Airport following an Australia tour that saw them retain the Ashes but surrender the ODI series 6-1, Flower said: "Eoin Morgan won't be going to the World Cup. His finger needs to be operated on.
"He'll be a huge loss to us. He's been a very influential limited-overs performer for us since he joined the England team."
Captain Andrew Strauss, who had been hoping to utilise his Middlesex team-mate's unique talents on the slow, low pitches of India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, was equally disappointed.
He added: "Over the last 12 to 18 months he has been the stand-out performer for us in one-day cricket.
"We all see the World Cup as the forum to showcase our talents and skills and he is disappointed to be missing out.
"Unfortunately that's the nature of the beast; you are going to get injured and his has come at a bad time.
"Thankfully Eoin is a young bloke who has plenty more opportunities but for the time being we're going to have to make do without him. That's something we're prepared for and something we're able to do."
Essex all-rounder Bopara has been summoned back from the West Indies, where he has been on duty with the England Lions, and will now link up with Strauss and company.
He played no part in the unhappy one-day series against Australia but is an experienced performer and, perhaps crucially, knows conditions well as one of the few Englishmen to feature in the Indian Premier League.
He is a destructive hitter, as he showed with a wonderful display against Bangladesh at Edgbaston last summer, and also offers an additional bowling option.
"Ravi is an exciting young cricketer in his own right and he's going to be joining us," said Flower.
"No one is irreplaceable and Ravi is a very talented, exciting player. He also brings a little medium pace that will help the captain in the middle overs."
Strauss, meanwhile, believes Bopara will be eager to assert himself again after a period out of the international set-up.
"He hasn't had a chance to play for us recently but he has been playing a lot of cricket around the world," said the captain.
"He is desperate to get back in the ranks and this is his opportunity.
"We like what he can bring to the game with his bowling and his ability to clear the ropes will be important to us. He's a worthy addition to our squad."
Morgan is not the only England player to suffer injury ahead of the World Cup, but the five other players with question marks over their fitness are all now expected to make the trip.
Tim Bresnan (calf), Graeme Swann (back), Paul Collingwood (back) and Ajmal Shahzad (hamstring) all had to leave the Australia tour early, while Stuart Broad (stomach) has not played since the second Test of the Ashes.
"We've got good news on most of our other players," confirmed Flower.
"The guys that came back early are progressing well."

I'm visiting Germany during Sept 16-20. I know that Oktoberfest starts Sept. 20, and as much as I'd like to experience it, I don't have reservations, and I'm not a fan of huge crowds.
1) If we visit Munich during the days leading up to Oktoberfest, will there be too many people already?
2) I heard from somewhere that Hofbrauhaus is the next best thing to Oktoberfest. Will they be open during Sept 16-19?
3) If Munich pre-Oktoberfest is a bad idea, are there any similar celebrations going on in other parts of Germany, that I can attend?
Thanks everyone
The best way to get the Oktoberfest Experience without the crowds?

1) How do you define too many people?
2) Hofbrauhaus is to the Oktoberfest tents like a creek is to the Mississippi River.
3) Try a wine fest. They are all over Germany in the wine regions. -

1) Probably.
2) You can't equate the two.
3) Stuttgart has a Volksfest and other cities have some sort of harvest or wine fest.

Answer to your OP: You cannot prepare an omelett without breaking eggs - the same with the crowds/Oktoberfest.
There are lots of wine festivals in Sep/Oct. Some taking place only at weekends and some are week long.

Oktoberfest without crowds? Is that like a sandwich--but hold the bread? Cut flowers, but no vase?
You can always just buy a CD of oompah music, sit in your room and kill a sixpack. But it just wouldn't be the same.... -

Oktoberfest actually begins on the 19th and yes, there will be crowds. But that is what makes it so much fun, especially if you like to people watch. If you go early in the morning, you will not need reservations. We will be there opening weekend, as we were last year. It was a blast.
Hofbrauhaus is very crowded during this period. It is across from the Hard Rock cafe in a square (sort of). It is fun in the whole area there but still crowded, especially during the weekends. The crowds actually begin on Friday night before Oktoberfest. -
Report Abuse
Perhaps I phrased this the wrong way.
I'm pretty sure I won't be able to attend the actual Oktoberfest (no reservations and so forth) - so what I meant by the original question is, what are the best alternatives? If any.
I know that it's a unique experience, and that nothing probably compares, but I thought there would be no harm in asking, in case there're some beer festivals elsewhere in Germany that aren't as popular, or something ^^ Those wine festivals sound promising, I'll look into those.
Thanks everyone! -

Just stick to the Viktualienmarkt beer garden in Munich. You will enjoy good beer in convivial surroundings without the overwhelming crowds at the fest. Plus as you wander the immediate area, you will see plenty of Germans and foreigners staggering back from the fest in various states of unflattering drunkeness, which will make you even happier to have imbibed at the market.

By the way, why do you have to in Munich anyway? It's a pretty big country. Are you flying into Munich? Very easy to go elsewhere, head up to Passau/Regensburg. Or someplace in the Alps. Or even down to Salzburg in Austria.
Report Abuse
I'm studying in Steyr, Austria for a few months, and my friends and I happen to have 4 extra days before the start of our classes, so we thought we'd visit a nearby country ^^
We're saving Salzburg, Vienna, and the rest of Austria for December, during our Christmas break - which is when our Schengen visa expires, preventing us from exiting Austria until January.
Would you guys recommend a city other than Munich, to visit? We figured Bavaria would be the best place to visit since we also have friends in Regensburg and Nuremburg... and since we have 4 days, we'd drop by Munich for 1-2 of the 4 days. What does everyone think? -

You should try a "Bavarian Evening" meal at the Gasthof Fraundorfer, south of Munich in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. You get traditional Bavarian music, folk dancing, yodeling, and great food, all at a very reasonable price. The atmosphere is fun and noisy but not raucous. And this happens every night except for Tuesdays.
Watch this to get a feel for the atmosphere:

Report Abuse
Garmisch is south of Munich, a little over an hour by train, right up a against the Alps. It's worth a trip for the Fraundorfer, but the nearby Zugspitze (Germany's tallest peak) and the Partnach Gorge are other reasons to go there.
Report Abuse
Fly/drive/walk to Stuttgart - enjoy the Volksfest there - and visit the Mercedes Benz and Porsche plant and, if your smart, you'll also head to Neckarsulm to visit the Audi Plant/Forum.
