Day 12 - Tourist Delivery - The End

Amazing how fast two weeks can go by. We started day 12 in Strasbourg France, home of the European parliament. I might have liked to look around a bit, but honestly, we didn't have any time. So we did a quick drive by of the EU parliament for a couple of pictures, then we were off on our journey back to Stuttgart.

First, a gratuitous car shot:



Sorry, I couldn't help it. Man, am I happy with the Guards Red. What a beautiful car....!

OK, so here are some shots of the European Parliament:







Want to see something else that's cool in France? They have these neat little mini traffic lights located low on the pole so the first car can see the light if they are too close to the line. They don't have these in Germany, and unlike in America, there are no lights across the street to look at.



OK, now how is it possible that anyone living in a country as rich in culture and art as France could possibly drive something like this?:



OK, enough site seeing, we cross the Rhein river and we are back in Germany.



After we did, I wanted to turn around and re-enter France to see if we could find a nice 'Welcome to France' sign. When we entered the country last night, it was dark and we didn't get a very good picture. This was the best we could find:



(more to come later, got to to eat)
