Travel

I currently live in Bavaria. I've been to BMW Welt (BMW World) in Munich sometimes. There's Americans there every day taking delivery of their cars, going on the autobahn and having some fun before it's shipped to the states.

They have a handing over the car ceremony and factory tour and everything. I think Mercedes, Porsche, VW, Audi they all do it down here. It's a big experience thing. The Mercedes museum in Stuttgart is fantastic. Audi even has a kind of Audi center in Munich Airport with a fleet of cars where you can fly an and test drive and everything.

Also the arcitecture is cool.

This is where customers get their cars:


A friend of mine from Kentucky is coming over here in August to visit. He's never been to Europe before and told me "I hope Europe isn't totally backwards". We'll see what he says after visiting BMW. hehe

Mercedes Benz:





Porsche:

Their factory straddles a main road into Stuttgart. Finishes chassis are transported on the glass bridge over the road.
