Mid Tour Leave | |
The Army will fly a deployed soldier anywhere in the world for 15 days of Rest & Relaxation. They try to make about the middle of the tour, and it’s definitely something I’m looking forward to. My midpoint was early last month, so my leave is coming up soon. We’ve decided to meet in Germany, at the Army's recreation hotel, the Edelweiss . It is in Garmisch, where Lisa and I visited several times back in the early 90’s as a young lieutenant. Almost 20 years later, we’ll get to show it to our children! Ethan was so nice about it, too: “Dad, it’s OK if we go to some museums and stuff. I’ll still have fun.” As it turns out, there’s nary a museum in our plan. I’m thinking along the lines of whitewater rafting, mountain climbing, seeing the famous Neuschwanstein castle, and going to the pool a lot! |
