Xen-- great idea picking up a little deutsch before going. I could think of several times when I wished I had!

Yeah. I was really debating whether or not I wanted to put the effort into it or not. The trip is only six days, but I figure when traveling in a foreign country it is always a good idea to learn at least a little bit of the local language.
I gave up on Cantonese and Thai, but did the complete Spanish I and Portuguese I.

Well I finally found the "a little" I couldn't seem to find in the online translators. Guess it is spelled "ein bisschen."
