My three sons and I are headed to the Dragon, Cherahola Skyway, Blue Ridge Parkway then down to Key West. Only thing is my oldest planned it for when he can take vacation and it will be in August. Plus his daily plan puts us on the Dragon on the weekend. I gave him a warning not to go through there on a weekend. Kids now a days just don't listen.

Spangdahlem, Germany to Prague; to Bratislava, Slovakia; to Budapest, Hungary; to Zagreb, Croatia; thru Trieste, Slovenia; to Aviano, Italy; thru Liechtenstien; and the Swiss Alps to Zurich for the Swiss 500 mile ride. Then back to Spangdahlem probably thru France and Luxembourg. Should be a nice trip.
