I recommend Austria as well.  We really enjoyed it there, and the folks are
a little more laid back too.  Beautiful scenery.

Sorry Andrea, I have to disagree with you, at least partly.

Garmisch is a fine southern German town in the Alps, but there are
many other towns which are worth visiting.  Garmisch has a BX and
therefore is nearly a little bit of the USA.  If I were asked where
to visit in that part of Germany, I should go to one of the other
towns along the border - Oberammergau or Sondhofen perhaps - I have
been to many places there when I used to ski.  On the other hand, I
should prefer to recommend somewhere up the Romantischestrasse in
Bavaria, where the beer/bier is much better.  Try Schlenkerla (sp?)
Rauchbier for a start, it is difficult to find anywhere else in the
world.  Yet again, try crossing the old inter-German border into the
Thueringer Wald where it is still relatively unspoilt.
