And that was the nicest place I got to go in the last 12 months.

Remember, I have the job that sent me to Hudson's Bay in January.

My counterpart is in Dallas right now.  I think there might be a rollout in San Antonio in the fall I'll have to go to.  I don't know of any operations going on in Austin right now or I'd definitely give you a ring. :)

I think one trip up there, like once in my life, might be neat, but that's it.

I'd love to go to San Antonio. Just to Ozzy the Alamo.

San Antonio and Austin are practically one giant city.  I can get to downtown San Antonio in about an hour and a half.  If you have some time I could meet up with you at the Alamo or something.

I dodged a bullet earlier this month when I was supposed to go to Tucson, but had to run a QA plan to fix a bad, buggy deploy to production. :ph34r:

I would like to visit Tucson, but not in July.

When we have to travel, it's generally to Arizona, south Georgia/north Florida, Texas, or California.

In fairness, my work travel destinations tend to alternate between cool & lame places.  For all the crappy little towns I've had to visit, I've also been to Seattle, Chicago, New Orleans, and all over central/southern Florida.  Wouldn't mind visiting Arizona, Texas, or (dare I say it) California.

ORLY?  Didn't know they were that close.  I'll keep it in mind.  If I end up going it'll probably be in October.

There's got to be some historical bits somewhere about people beating up Danes, which could cheer you up?

You could always try to steal the head of the little mermaid statue or something.  Surely, when in the lair of the arch nemesis it is time for dashing deeds of derring do?

I think Denmark's gone more conservative since my youth there, but if it's bright and sunny and summery you could always try to find a beach or park and see if you can spot any topless sunbathers or swimmers.  Or is that just not done anymore in Denmark?

The topless sunbathing has fallen off a lot in the past 10-20 years.

Oh... and Extra Bladet (one of the tabloids) has naked chicks on page 3 or 12 or whatever page it is.  So flip through that at the hotel for cheap thrills.

Yakie, can you tell me what a "champagne girl" is?  It's how the girlfriend describes her job in the one Danish movie I've seen.
