Below is my proposed itinerary from my summer (2008) in Germany. The actual itinerary differed a bit due to travel difficulties–for example, I didn’t make it to Prague–but I think it’s worth preserving a copy of the master plan.
I had previously listed this information under the itinerary tab in the toolbar above. Since the information would live better in my archives at this point in time, I have moved it to this post.
