    They sell Edam cheese here also, but I prefer cheddar.

    Madrid is the capital of Spain. It's a wonderful city and has a population of 3.213.000. Madrid is located on the river Manzanares in the centre of both the country and the Community of Madrid (which comprises the city of Madrid, its conurbation and extended suburbs and villages); this community is bordered by the autonomous communities of Castile and León and Castile-La Mancha. As the capital city of Spain, seat of government, and residence of the Spanish monarch, Madrid is also the political centre of Spain.

    Furthermore, Madrid has some of the best tapas bars in the world!

    Great shopping, and I'm not even a shopper

    Frankfurt am Main -------- Known in US as Frankfurt only

    Frankfurt, is the largest city in the German state of Hesse and the fifth-largest city in Germany,
    with a population of about 670,000.

    In English, this city's name translates into "Frankfurt on the Main" (pronounced like "mine"). A part of early Franconia, the inhabitants were the early Franks. The city is located on an ancient ford on the river Main, the German word for which is "Furt". Thus the city's name receives its legacy as being the "ford of the Franks".

    Talladega is a city in Alabama that is known for the Talladega Speedway and the International Motor Sport Hall of Fame. There are also Talladega National Forest and the highest point in Alabama in nearby Cheaha State Park. I read on the county Web site that the Talladega County Courthouse is the oldest working courthouse in the state.

    Rochester, Minnesota (pop. 100,000) is the home of the Mayo Clinic. Dr. Charles Mayo's home is on the National Register of Historic Places and is open for tours. Rochester also has "the largest IBM complex under one roof" according to the city Web site. If you go to the city Web site you will find a link to animal control's animals waiting to be adopted.

    Kleine Brogel, a municipality of Belgium. It is home to the 10th Tactical Wing, operating F-16 Fighting Falcons.

    It has been subject to much political controversy because of U.S. nuclear weapons allegedly being stored in the facility.
