(this from Bob)
When I was Last in Germany as a child, Diesel fumes filled the air. The telltale rattle of Low compression engines could be heard far in the distance. Today, the sound of Diesel is still present though at a much more tolerable decibel. Fumes? Unless you are breathing directly out of the exhaust pipe are non existent. Even the big trucks that crowd the streets are quiet and Clean. The United States had better wake up to this technology soon. When a Diesel Mini Van can burn rubber from a stop, what more can you ask for?
We rented a VW Polo instead of taking the train. At first I admit a bit of disappointment in not being able to take a ride on the ICE train, However, learning how to drive on the AutoBahn in and under powered car does bring excitement in it's own right! More on this later.
The Porsche Museum was Beautiful. Today, off to BMW.
