The bigger city near Ramstein Air Base is Kaiserslautern a.k.a. K-town. In the city and its surrounding district live an additional approximately 50,000 NATO military personnel members (mainly American). K-town is 20 minutes away from the base and will be the center of our life in the next few years other than base. So we went on a USO (United Service Organization) tour which is a new comer's tour of the K-town for the military members and their families so that we can know a little bit of the city.
There were 15 of us. 3 families with kids and 6 singles.It was very very cold and windy that day, probably around 45F. The tour lady gave us a brief history and a little bit downtown sightseeing. Then we were free to go shopping for 1.5 hours. But it was so cold that we did not want to stay ouside for long. Then she took us to a traditional german restaurant for lunch.
