Wow, thanks for all the advice! I'll be sure to keep all that in mind. :)
We were initially thinking of dropping by Amsterdam, though it doesn't look like it'll fit in the itinerary at this point. But wow, that's... interesting. I wouldn't have guessed that Amsterdam would be like that. o_o;
Oh, have fun there, these are all beautiful cities (especially Venice and Prague, well Paris too but I'm French so it's not very exotic to me xD)~! Except Prague, those are all quite expensive cities... but very charming and people there are lovely (maybe not that much in Paris, I don't know? You tell me when you'll be back!)^^
So have a safe trip, enjoy it as much as you can ;)
Here's some advice from someone who's lived in Europe for three years.
When you're in France, street food will save your life.
French wine is yummy.
Chocolate is your best friend because it likely comes from Germany.
Make sure you have hot chocolate in Germany.
AND KINDEREGGS
German food is AMAZING.
Vienna showers are THE BEST SHOWERS YOU WILL EVER HAVE!
Make sure you have plenty of coffee drinks in Italy.
Beware the nude beaches in Italy
As you are likely aware with being in Africa and China, don't label yourself as American or act like one. We are not well received in most of the countries in Europe. (you could get pick pocketed) I have a feeling you will do well in this department.
I WANT PICTURES!!!!
Also if you decide to go to Holland, AVOID Amsterdam. It is very dirty as a city and nearly every shop is pornified. If you stop anywhere, I hear Utecht is pretty cool. From personal experience, Valkenburg, Holland is one of the BEST VILLAGES OF EUROPE EVER!!!
Also in Germany, Heidelburg and Cologne are very amazing cities too. <3 Valkenburg, Heidelburg, and Vienna. (London too but you won't be heading that way. D: )

Oh yeah. If you survived China, Europe'll be a breeze. More expensive, but a breeze.
