    Löffingen-Sindelfingen

    March 28 in Germany ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C

    Endlich gehts los👍🙏💯. Wir verabschiedeten uns nun auch von Löffingen und fuhren auf der Autobahn nach Sindelfingen zu Erwin Hymer. Da uns die Schlüssel für den Camper abhanden kamen und wir auch schon neue Schlösser bestellt hatten, erhofften wir uns dort Hilfe, da wir die alten Schlösser nicht demontieren konnten. Auch mit der tatkräftigen Unterstützung eines netten Mechanikers konnte man uns nicht helfen. Auch der Tip vom Mechaniker, es bei einem Schlüsseldienst zu versuchen fruchtete nicht. Dieser hatte wenigstens einen Rohling, den ich dann selber mit feilen so passend machen konnte, dass nun wieder alles funktioniert. Puhh, soo cool. Aus Freude darüber, gingen wir gleich nochmals einen Rohling kaufen, den er dann gleich zuschleifen konnte.
    Nun haben wir wieder 2 passende 🔑.
    Übernachten konnten wir gleich dort.
    Langsam gewöhnen wir uns wieder ein.    Read more

    Porsche Museum

    March 14 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ 37 °F

    We picked up breakfast items last night at Aldi's. After a great night's sleep and a yogurt, granola and lunchmeat breakfast, we were ready for our first full day in Germany.
    We took the S bahn to the Porsche Museum. It is beautiful, well-engineered and informative.
    It took us through the history of Ferdinand Porshce's first design (an electric carriage) all the way through racing history and then current automobiles.
    They had a racing simulation that Brian really enjoyed.
    We would have to post 12 footprints to show all the photos Brian took. We will try to pare it down to 2 footprints!    Read more

    Carl's Brauhaus

    March 13 in Germany ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F

    We were so hungry!! We had only eaten a bagel, a small bag of trail mix, and a British digestive biscuit all day. When we finally arrived at the city center, we ate at Carl's Brauhaus, which serves traditional Schwabian food. (That is the name of the traditional German food specific to this area).
    One thing that we need to get accustomed to is that restaurants will seat strangers with you at your table. I can tell that Brian- the extrovert- is going to love this custom. I hope to learn to survive it.
    I had Schwabuan turkey ragout and noodles, and Brian had 3 different kinds of ravioli in a black beer gravy. (Fun fact: the word for ravioli in German- maultaschen- means mouth pocket)
    We walked down the Konigstrasse and picked up breakfast food at Lidl.
    We topped the night off with gelato! We can't wait to sleep tonight.    Read more

    Dazed and confused in Stuttgart

    March 13 in Germany ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F

    We had a smooth arrival in Stuttgart. We cleared Customs quickly and within 3 minutes of arriving at baggage claim, we retrieved both of our suitcases. Yay! We walked 4 minutes to our airport hotel and seamlessly checked in. We dropped our bags in our room and set out to take the train to the city plaza (Schlossplatz).
    This is where the dream arrival died. We had not done enough homework on figuring out the trains. We had assumed it was similar to Italy. It is NOT. 1 hour, 2 apps and 2 ticket kiosks later, we were on the correct, yet incredibly overcrowded train to the Schlossplatz.    Read more

    Stuttgart

    September 21, 2024 in Germany ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

    So, nachdem hier so viel aus allen Herren Ländern erzählt wird, dachte ich, dass ich mal einen homereport mache😁.
    Nachdem wir heute ungewöhnlich lange (bis 9.00 Uhr) geschlafen haben, habe ich mich eine halbe Stunde später auf mein Rad geschwungen und Frühstück gekauft.
    Gut gestärkt ging es an eine kurze Wohnungaufräumsession und dann in die Stadt. Jede Menge war geboten in den verschiedensten Winkeln.
    Da Sanis p&c Samstage (übrigens der letzte heute) immer sehr lang sind, habe ich sie in ihrer Pause getroffen und wir haben es uns am Eckensee mit einem Markthallenstandardsnack gut gehen lassen.
    Danach ging es für Sani zum Arbeiten und für mich zum Einkaufen. Nach den Besorgungen fürs Abendessen und einem Geburtstagsgeschenk für meine Holde, war endlich Zeit für einen Abstecher zu einem meiner Local Dealer...gut für ihn und schlecht für mich, dass ich fündig wurde.
    Nach einer interessanten Tour durch den Stuttgarter Westen hab ich mir im Wyld eine kleine Erfrischung gegönnt und dabei mit viel Freude den kicker Bundesligaticker verfolgt.
    Dann ging es wieder Richtung Heslach. Da es noch erfreulich warm war saßich noch ein wenig zum Lesen im Garten. Nach Wäschewaschen und Friedhof gießen machte ich mich an die Abendessenszubereitung: Lasagne mit frischem Salat und einem leckeren Vino.
    Jetzt ist alles verputzt und aufgeräumt und wir werden den Abend mit 2 Folgen Bridgerton beschließen.
    Euch allen noch ein schönes Wochenende.    Read more

    Bodega Campillo

    August 21, 2024 in Germany ⋅ 🌙 19 °C

    Estuvimos en la Bogeda Campillo en una visita guiada con una guía que tenía muy mala leche y un poco mal educada. La Bodega Campillo pertenece al grupo Faustino, que es una de las mas grandes empresas de vino de la region. La Bodega Campillo tiene una co-operation con el museo Guggenheim de Bilbao.
    Tienen un almacen de mas de 6.600 barricas con un Volumen de 225l. Además tienen un millón de botellas, que nos da un total de 3,25 millones de botellas. Cada año venden 1,5 millones de botellas. La mayoría de sus vinos son Crianza que tienen quedarse en el almacén unos 2-3 años. También tenían vinos muchos más viejos, hasta une del año 1978.
    Probamos tres vinos, uno rosado, uno de reserva y otro autor.

    Day 12

    Stuttgart

    October 31, 2023 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F

    We made our sprint from Heidelberg to Stuttgart today. We had planned on hitting both Porsche & Mercedes Benz museums, the latter being the better overall due to its rich general automobile history in addition to the MB story. But, we ending up only having time for the Porsche museum since we had to drive on to Frankfurt that night.

    Needless to say, it was phenomenal, a must-see for the Porscheaholic. The two high points were Ferdinand Porsche's life before the first Porsche, the 356, was released in 1954, (BTW he's Bohemian by birth👍) and seeing the many race cars that gave this company such a rich racing heritage. Interestingly Ferdinand was initially interested in electrically power. His first car was released in 1900. A gasoline-electric hybrid, it sent power generated by a gas engine to motors powering the car. (There was no intermediary battery.)
    Furthermore the electric motors were built into the front wheel hubs.

    Also caught in the shop (they service Porsche's here too) was a very special car, the GT 1 Strassenversion, a rare road going version of the Le Mans-winning GT 1 endurance champ. (Like to see this and a Carrera GT hotting it up on the Nordschleife! 👀🏁)

    I have a lot of pics that I'll share when we see each other, hopefully soon. In the mean time here's a few.    Read more

    Second showday - Stuttgart, DE

    May 1 in Germany ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C

    Today's venue was very very small. The one we were playing in felt more like a youth centre. Not really a stage and unfortunately the ticketsale was also not the best..

    The weather was really lovely and everyday we have all the time we need for soundcheck, so it was a chilled day. We went for a walk in the park here and I showered 2 times. One time after dinner and again after show, just because I could and it felt amazing. What a good shower can do for a human is amazing.

    We ordered pizza with a side of salad and tiramisu. The tiramisu was amazing, so I hope to get an extra small bite from the leftovers we took in the bus.

    The show was very nice also. Better than I expected. The audience was with few, but the ones who came really enjoyed it and it didn't feel like a strange gig at all. And otherwise we got another practice round in hahah.

    Now I'm laying in my bunk, some are also already in bed, and a few are still chilling in the lounge areas. Let's hope for a smooth ride tonight and I hope to get a lot of hours sleep. I'm positive about it ✨️✨️    Read more
