Why else does anyone go to belgium - it's sort of on the way. Just ask Germany.
(boo, hiss. ouch.)
The friend of mine who I was planning this with and who I'm super totally crushed out on and in love with lives in Zurich right now, and he says I have to see Switzerland with him. so it stays on the list. Plus I've heard that it and Austria are fun to drive.

And you're right about France. I was going around the coast through spain so I needed coast. Someone draw me a better line through France, but missing Paris.

I did Paris in 10th grade and liked it. I'd like to go back sometime, but i WOULD want to spend a couple weeks there, and would thus probably skip it this trip.

similarly I might skip the british isles altogether and then do a UK/Ireland trip some other time.

I don't really wanna do too much of Italy but said friend said totally do florence. Rome doesn't strike my fancy much anyway. I'll go sometime i hope but its not a priority.

I'm almost leaning towards that. Again, just cause a city's marked on the map doesn't mean i'm stopping there.
