We are back!

Time flies and it has been "gasp" a week since we came back from our Germany trip!  It has been a really fun trip with all the good food, automobile museums, shopping (for the wifey) and most importantly, good weather (sunshine with little or almost no rain barring the last two days of the trip)!

What particularly struck me during this trip was the dedication the Germans has towards automobiles, as proven by the various auto museums and can you beat this, a whole theme park devoted entirely towards automobiles!

This theme park, "The Autostadt" was conceived and launched by Volkswagen to create a unique location where knowledge, culture, art and design could be shared in a natural location. In the Autostadt, there is a museum which chronicles the history, development and future of automobiles, different art and cultural events dedicated to a different theme each year, fun activities for the children and many good restaurants! This huge theme park, which also serve as a delivery centre for VW cars (wouldn't it be great if we have one in Singapore too..) is located in Wolfsburg, next to the main Volkswagen plant and we think, well worth a visit if you were to go Germany.

Here are some of the pics we took at the Autostadt!
