Like your post Baggieman. Sounds like we have a lot in common on the travel front. I worked in East Germany some years ago and visited Kracov and Auschwitz during my time there. If you organise trips out that way you could do worse than Leipzig,Dresden and Prague, all of which are fairly close to each other. You can do Colditz too,which is en route.
Like you I am much travelled, having done the RTW flights 3 times in all. Favourite place is probably Hong Kong followed closely by Saigon. Least favourite and definitely most scary was Manila in the Philippines. It appeared to me and my travelling buddy that we were the only 2 people in the city who were not carrying firearms.
We are back in Thailand for 3 weeks later this year followed by a 35 day Caribbean cruise in the new year. We are also discussing doing Route 66 as well in 2018.
Loving retirement!
