Well,if in Rome,do as the Romans.
Visit Rome,and Florence maybe.Milano is of course a must-see.just as Venice.Go also in Sicilly.Italy is a great country,clouded just by gypsies,so I think you should see the best not the worse of it.

well too bad it's only in the last two weeks of September ;) You can buy a bavarian Maßkrug all year 'round though.

best ski resort in the bavarian Alps: Nebelhorn-Fellhorn-Kanzelwand. You can ski around three mountains that are all interconnected through skilifts and cross the border to another country at the same time (Kanzelwand is already austrian). Since it's really big, it's not too overpopulated on the various trails and there's something for every level of skiing experience (Fellhorn summit Buckelpiste is pretty demanding... beware :P ) plus it's only a 30 minute drive to two other less known (mainly to locals) and smaller ski resorts in Immenstadt (Alpsee Skizirkus) and Gunzesried (Bergbahnen Ofterschwang-Gunzesried) if you want to explore the area a bit (which is btw beautiful and ehm... yeah I grew up there :P )

Personally I prefer this ski resort over the Garmisch-Patenkirchen (Zugspitze) or Bayrischzell (Sudelfeld) areas, since those are imo overrated and therefore overpopulated :/

Gaeta is nice (in summer at least). you should definitely see the church in-between the cliffs!

Nope, it is definitely NOT. Go and see Maidult, Gäuboden and Plärrer for REAL, AUTHENTICAL Bavarian Volksfeste. Oktoberfest is far too internationalized and commercialized.

(I'm from Bavaria, so I can tell...)
