Germany! What, that's not in Greece!

---

I planned a few flex days at the end of my trip in case I needed more island time; I did not.
So from Athens, I have flown to Frankfurt, Germany, for a layover. Had about 4 hrs, so I ventured to the city center (I think); had beer & pretzyl & walked for about an hour; crossed the river Main & made it back for my flight to?

On that flight to Frankfurt was Rapper, Game & his entourage. I never heard of him before but a couple of people were taking pictures & getting autographs. I sat next to him on the bus across the tarmac to the terminal. So I looked him up on Google:

The Game, real name Jayceon Taylor, recently came fourth in the BBC News website's Sound Of 2005 poll. Foster Taylor, 24, released his first album Untold Story a few months ago on the independent label Get Low. He has collaborated with a string of other rappers, including Dr Dre and Kanye West, on his latest release, which is based on his experiences growing up in a foster home and becoming involved in drugs and crime. He has also scored a top 10 hit with his debut single, How We Do, featuring fellow rapper 50 Cent.

I flew Lufthansa-it was nice; they actually served a meal & a snack & drinks & newspapers were free. The airport is huge in Frankfurt; the longest A corridor I've ever walked in my life. & flights far & wide on airlines like Air Sri Lanka & flights to places like Tehran & Mombassa. Also, in my short time in Germany it looked (compared to Athens) cleaner & the people didn't seem to be smoking as much. & you could flush the toilet paper!

ok Mr. School teacher
is this going to be like you reading a book to your students and just when we get to the end of the chapter, all waiting with baited breath, you close the book and say, "end of chapter 2, tomorrow we will read chapter 3". So where are you going????

Steve, When you buy the Cubans just remove the band and nobody will be the wiser. As far as brand name try the following: Ashton, Fuente, Cohiba, La Gloria Cubana, Macanudo, Trinidad. Otherwise get what you can. Make sure you bring back at least 2. ALso, where do ou go from Frankfurt. See you in a couple of days.

Will do. As for the travel mystery; had to leave a cliff hanger!

Cliffhanger
Exactly. I had to string you all along a little bit; it's important to build to a crescendo (sp?). Maybe a better teacher than thought.
