Oh, man! I've always wanted to go to Madison, and I've never gotten the chance. I've heard it's got pretty much everything. If you've spent time there, please share!

Ugh, that blows. But you know, as long as I've lived here I haven't been to Berlin, for example. I grew up in New York State and went to NYC fairly often, but I was in my 20s before I visited the Statue of Liberty, and I haven't seen most of the US, never having been farther west than St. Louis, farther north than Groton (CT; and that was for work) or farther south than Atlanta. And I went to STL and Atlanta while I was living *here*.
It always seems to be a money/time/opportunity issue. You need all three and at least one is always missing.

I lived in Germany ( Detmold, -Westphalia ) for 10 years and the furthest we got to was Koln once on a coach trip, the American PX down south on a coach trip and Hannover airport.
But there were so many lovely places so close to us we didn't need to go further.
Stein Hundemeer, Externstein, Hermandankle, Lake Shieder . We also used to go up to Hameln ( known as Hamlin here) which is also a beautiful little town which acts out the pied piper every sunday.
We drove through Rotterdam a few times on the way to a centerparks in Holland and to the ferry, but didn't stop.
