The Sun is a rare sight here in Germany. This country has poor weather. It stays cool in the summer, the sun hardly ever shines, it rains a lot. And I came here from Fort Huachuca, where the sun shines every day, it hardly ever rains, and it gets nice and hot. Nevertheless, I'm still enjoying my 2-year tour in Germany. Although, I'm trying to go to England next. Yeah, more bad weather. But the locals speak English, so I guess it balances itself out. And then after that, hopefully I'll get Australia. Awesome weather, locals speak English. After all that, I'll then probably be stationed in the U.S. I wonder, if after 7-8 years of being stationed OCONUS, I'll have culture shock? Hmmm...
Being in the military certainly has its benefits...
