"Just returned from a great trip to "pick up" our new turbo. For those not familiar with this, you really don't pick up your car, you borrow it for a pewriod of time before it gets shipped back to the US (now I get to wait 6-10 weeks for the car we had a blast with).

Here's a brief summary and a few pics (if my posting works).
We arrived in Stuttgart last Sunday, stayed at the Schlossgarten Hotel
here's the schloss



It was Sunday so we went off to the MB museum. Fantastic museum. Not just a great history of MB cars, but also German industry as well. Far too many amazing cars to show. Here's a sample.



The next day it was off to Porsche. We were shown our car,



We started with a drive with the top down through the black forest. Just beautiful. Stopped at Baden-Baden, and stayed at the absolutely fantastic Brenner Park Hotel. View from our window.



Next morning we headed off to the Schlumpf collection museum in Mulhouse France. Great story, and fantastic museum with the largest collection of Bugattis.





From Mulhouse, after a nice french lunch we headed off to Lake Constance to the town of Lindau.

 

We spent the morning in Lindau, and then headed off into the alps. Again still we had perfect top down weather.






We had lunch on a roof top restaurant, overlooking the mountains.

 

great pictures!, cab delivered then euro road trip?
edit: just saw second post

 

The next day we toured Castle Neurschwanstein, here's a view from the castle (only day we had with rain)




visited Dachau, and then headed to Nurmberg, a very historic and fascinating city.
Here you can see the wall that surrounds most of the city.



here's were we had lunch the next day, the oldest brat house in the world.



Also has some spectacular views and architecture.



Stayed at the Meridian, was also very nice.
We spent two nights in Nurmberg, and also visited the Dokumentation Museum. Tells the history of Hitler came to power, and is situated on the old Nazi Rally grounds.

 

After Numberg, we went to Erfurt to visit a close friend.
A great old city that has really come about since reunification.

 

then back to stuttgart, sad to return the car. Thanks for posting this Jack.

 

Great story! Looks like you got to see some interesting views aswell!

 

We really did enjoy ourselves. Tried to balance cars with history with good food.

 

nothing like a euro trip.

 

interesting thought, but how does one mow that grass in the alp pic? i cannot get my yard to look that good!

nice trip! congrats.
