Okay, I just got my flights. Right now, I'm in Frankfurt for Xmas, New Year's and the first couple weeks of January. But, I'm not stuck there as friends I'm visiting there have a car, and we are scheduled to hit France, Belgium and any other neighboring countries that strike our fancy.

(Read "we" and "our" as my best friend and myself, and her husband when he can get off work, and we decide to let him come along. )

In looking at the Community threads, I spotted the London get together, which I could attend if its not too far, like more than a two hour drive from Frankfurt, anybody know? Or a quick, easy flight?

Or, anybody else want to get together? Perhaps right in Frankfurt or in Belgium? Are there any FTers there? I would love to meet you!

Please forgive the mild retardation when it comes to European or, for that matter, any world geography ... I'm from Southern California. (Growing up, geography was taught like, "You're where practically everyone on the planet wants to be, that's all you need to know.")
