I was C batt 3/61ADA 81 to 82. Lived above Monicas with 2 other GIs. Does anyone remember Monicas ?? I was quite young, and quite awestruck by this mystical place. And the locals were wonderfull, and understanding folks. A time of my life I will never forget!

@princemooip ice cafe sound familiar good ice cream also we use to eat at the italian restaurant insede the castle...by the fountain.




After a 24 year absence, I got to visit Budingen once again, this February.
The town has changed a bit, grown a bit and even the now-deserted Armstrong Kaserne, did not look too familiar (and I almost got detained for taking a picture of the entrance, to this empty Kaserne!)
Old town pretty well looked the same.
Walhalla is now gone and in its place is a Chinese restaurant!? Oy!
Cafe Hell was still there... So was the Hole in the Wall but, Wolfgang had forgotten me! lol

24 years is a long time, of course. I always find it strange visiting places you knew long ago: it's *almost* how you remember it, but so many things are subtly different from what you thought you knew. It's as if you've slipped into a parallel universe.
