QUOTE(SilentLaugh @ Dec 30 2007, 09:29 PM)  no one's answered your boat question. they're called gondola rides. i learned from mario party 7 =] GOD, THANK YOU. I owe you one. It was killing me, and I had searched Google for all of the terms but I couldn't figure it out. I'm also considering Switzerland, now. Paris is a definite for me. You've all been really helpful. |

I've been to London twice so far (hopefully more in the future) and I am in looooove with it. I know it's not "exotic" or anything, but London is amazing.

Gondolas don't have pedals. A gondolier steers the boat (and oftentimes even sings) while you sit there. It's really romantic :) |

DAMNIT.
I haven't searched on Google yet, the Gondola rides. Are we on the same page about the pedaling, you know, with your feet as if it's a bicycle? |

Oh, I didn't think it was a European thing, it just came to mind and I didn't want to make separate topics.
Paddle-boating is awesome, or at least, the way I remember it. It looks pretty gaytastic on Google Images, though. |

QUOTE(MissHygienic @ Dec 30 2007, 09:13 PM) American "cuisine" is a joke. I wouldn't invite any foreigner to try luxurious, fried, instant American meals. WTF, no! Your Red Lobsters are holy places. |

I live in a little village in the Midlands. Lots of green - I don't see the appeal of London at all. Truth be told, that place is scary!

Out of all the places I've been (Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, Italy) - Germany is by far my favorite. Specifically, Bavaria. Be sure not to miss Munich, but travel to the south into Garmisch... its picture perfect.

Germany is a beautiful country, but I found the people to be extremely unfriendly when I visited Boppard a few years ago.
