don't say things like this about the country that houses the Zugspitze (Garmisch-Partenkirchen!), Oberstdorf, and most fun of all the sick powder runs in the German black forest!!!! There is definitely good skiing in Germany.

Uuuuh my longest trip will be to NZ this summer it will be 5 minutes to Zurich airport, then like 35 hours to Christchurch, and then a flight to Wanaka :-/
