In Retrospect III.....

Name your favorite Overall Trip. Which year and why?

I'll start....

I must admit, my favorite trip was the first, 1993. Not that the others were uneventful, but 1993 was unique. Being the first trip, we didn't know what to expect, we didn't know our limits, and we were all virgins. Well, sort of. I had attended Oktoberfest in 1987, but only as a day trip from Augsburg. We found new excitement, new activities, and set the benchmark for future trips.

1993 was certainly a ground breaker and foundation for the future. How do you top that?

I'd have to say that it's a toss up between 1993 (the first!!) or 1997 (The Woody Trip). Joyce and Dan's banter was priceless. It was great to see John's dad party on, even though he had broken ribs!!
