5. I'll second Kali's suggestion that you go in October.

Oktoberfest is in Munich and ends in early October so it's easy to avoid that. The weather is pretty comparable to Wisconsin and should be nice when you're there. Spring weather is iffy unless you go in May. October is also wine grape harvest season, which is interesting to see. You can visit wineries along the Rhine and the Moselle.
