<div id="ygrps-yiv-464073324">I got my copy of Comet, Lonely Planet&#39;s newsletter (LP is a  travel<br/>
guide publisher) and saw a Top 5 travel list created by our own Rolf<br/>
Palmberg. Here is his list: <br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
TOP 5<br/>
<br/>
Rolf Palmberg adds a whole new dimension to going abroad with his Top<br/>
5 One Foot in Each Camp:<br/>
    <br/>
1. De Biergrens is a divided beer distributing shop in Baarle-Hertog<br/>
(Belgium)/Baarle-Nassau (The Netherlands). The international border<br/>
goes straight through the shop, leaving the owners with different sets<br/>
of rules for taxes and opening hours depending on which part of the<br/>
shop the goods are in. <br/>
<br/>
2. Drogisterij Camp, also in Baarle-Hertog/Baarle-Nassau,  comprises<br/>
an undivided pharmacy and the owner&#39;s divided home. Part of the family<br/>
sleeps in one country, part in the other, even though they are all in<br/>
the same bedroom!<br/>
<br/>
3. Gostilna Kalin is a divided restaurant in the divided village of<br/>
Bregana (Croatia/Slovenia). Here you can eat in either country (or in<br/>
both countries at the same time!), but you have to pay and go to the<br/>
toilet in Slovenia.          <br/>
<br/>
4. The border goes straight through Cafe Moskes in Dreef<br/>
(Belgium)/Kersel (The Netherlands), another favourite split eating<br/>
place. <br/>
<br/>
5. The innermost metre of a divided garage in Valga (Estonia)/Valka<br/>
(Latvia) is in Latvia, a fact that gives the owners ample opportunity<br/>
to go abroad without any border formalities.   <br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
Now Rolf, which guide did you get (The prize for getting a list<br/>
published) ?<br/>
