<p>Ahhhh, that week in Europe. I had soooo much fun. That is one of the reasons I would encourage everyone to do a WS in Europe if possible.</p>
<p>In Italy, we stayed at this small town, Pavia, outside Milan. We went to a small restaurant rear town square and asked the owner to prepare a sampler of all salami. Unknowing that they have 14 different kinds of them. It took two bottles of wine to finish our meal.</p>
<p>I drove an Audi A6 on the autobahn between Frankfurt to Bonn, topping out at 210 km/hour (have pictures to prove it). Too bad the 2.0 diesel engine on that A6 just can’t keep up with the other BMW and Mercedes. Believe it or not, a Honda s2000 passed me on the left and the driver flip me the bird. If you can’t do 240 km/hour you better stay on the right lanes most of the time. </p>
<p>After the sunset dinner on the bank of Rhine River in Bonn listening the music of Beethoven. The first thing I did was e-mail my wife and promised her when both kids finish their college, we are going to take a real vacation in Europe. </p>
<p>Then I went back to write the 3D machine operation trial we did in the day. Folks, that was a working trip and I did not spend one penny of my own money.</p>
