    My nephew just got back from Europe on business. He works for a company in North Carolina that makes computer controlled saws for the lumber industry. He writes their computer programs. He went to Germany, Switzerland and France. He said he liked Ger. an Switzerland the best. When they left Ger. they drove to France. He said they ate breakfast in Ger., lunch in Switzerland and dinner in France. He siad that since he is a vegetarian , he has some problems finding food that he can eat that dosn't have meat.

    Oh it must be great to have a job that takes you to so many countries!! Imagine being in three different countries all in one day!!!
    I have a son who is a fruitarian - he only eats nuts, sprouted seeds and fruit and sometimes finds it hard with his diet when he visits other countries too.

    Once I had Breakfast in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, lunch in Indianapolis, Indiana and dinner in Murfreesboro (not sure of the spelling) Tennessee. And, the following day Breakfast in Murfreesboro, lunch in Atlanta, Georgia, and dinner in Tampa Florida. Not three countries, only small difference's in language, and not even all that unique. Actually, now that I think about it, hardly worth the mention.

    Capt, does your son eat fish, eggs or anything that is not on land walking on all fours. if so he should be okay eating those things abroad.

    lets see, this is while flying, but i had dinner over New York, a snack over Greenland, then breakfast over Scotland, had coffee in Amsterdam, and lunch over Denmark,,,, dang thats alot of eating in really just a few hours difference,,
