Woke up: Barracks room US Army, Stuttgard Germany.
Drove: To Ramstien Air Force Base. We love driving. We stop if we seen interesting things or the travel guide or GPS says to.
Did: We stop in the USO in Stuttgard. http://affiliates.uso.org/stuttgart/ Wow it is nice. They copy us a bunch of camping info, give us maps and brochures about places to go and things to do. We stop in their exchange, buy more propane and a few other things (Anne found shorts on sale for $1 and bought 6 pairs for next summer). We have a name plate made for us their. Why does every one's exchange and commissary beat out ours :( why!! We head out with tons of information, but then Anne's fix it for the noise the truck is making (close the windows and turn up the radio) is no longer working. The truck really needs to get looked at before we head home and it is getting to be time to head back down. So we head off to Ramstein Air Force base. They have a large base and probably have a good, well stocked Auto Shop for American vehicles. We get a room, which by the way, is a HUGE 3 bedroom TLF (temporary lodging facility). The base in Ramstein is great, they have a mall and an exchange with many local shops and even a theater. Cameron goes to see a move and Randy and Anne hit the Biergarten in the mall, I mean the exchange area. ;) As we are looking at a map, a husband and wife, retired Navy, comes over and gives us hints about other places to go in the area before we head back. I think this is one of the first times that Randy and Anne pulled out a map and looked at where we were heading before we were on the road.
