Alrighty then...  Here is what I sent Spencer..

Hello Spencer,

My wife and I did a 4 week trip through Europe on our own with no agende
other than to get from Rome to
Heathrow airport in that time.   Best trip ever!   The leg of our trip that
tooks us to Wolfsburg was on
a train from Rotenburg which took about 4 hours?   We arrived about mid-day
and walked over to the
museum from the train station and spent  2 hours there.  Very
interesting.    As we were traveling mostly
by train and wanted to ride to Paris that night we tried to get a sleeper
car which took some back and
forth talking and signing to the ticket agent.   When we finally got our
ticket it showed about 5 train
changes until we would get to Hanover where we'd get the sleeper car.
Well we were tired and almost
missed one of the train changes and finally got to Hanover.   Our "sleeper"
was a car where we would
sit with other passengers and try to sleep.   I was very dissappointed and
it was one of the low points
of our trip.  But we made up for it the rest of the trip.   I would suggest
getting fluent enough with the
language to specify (just in case you need a sleeper car) that you want a
sleeper car dedicated to
yourself and your companion and not a situp and try to sleep
arrangement.

Most of our trip was great.  And not having a specific itinerary keeps you
from worrying about where
you have to be next.    Just enjoy the adventure.   That's what it's all
about.

Have fun!
