Depending on where in Europe you end up, these are unmissable:


Prague


Granada (Spain)


Barcelona


Vienna


Rome


Paris





If you end up in Madrid, be super careful of pickpockets (everywhere really, but especially there). The Pacsafe range of gear is the best investment you can make for peace of mind. The mesh for your backpack can withstand Amazonian attack (from personal experience), and the travel bag for wallet/camera/etc is brilliant because they can't cut the strap. By far the best bits of gear I've bought in 15 years of travelling. If you'd like more tips, PM me


PS> The site Tripadvisor dot com is one of the best I've found so far for finding the right accom - other travellers rate the hotels/hostels so you get the latest goss on condition and the best views. Brilliant. The view of the sun setting over the Sierra Nevada from the roof of the hostel in Granada was simply amazing. After a day at the Alhambra, the sunset will make you want to move there permanently.

Get a 'euro-rail' pass if they still have those - unlimited train rides (Austria won't accept it, they have their own version called a "rabbit card"). Definitely visit Fussen, Germany; Paris, France; Salzburg, Austria - take a "sound of music" tour. You definitely get your money's worth.


If I were to go back, I'd go visit my old army brigade (1st Brigade, 3rd Armored Division) near the town of Neiderkleen, Germany. They closed down the base years ago and from pictures I've seen on www sites, its in serious disrepair and neither the US nor anyone else in NATO is using it.
