Default Dave's Fatherland Visit

So sitting in DFW, I had a six hour layover to start my trip. Funny thing is that my wife and daughter were able to get on the 12:50 flight from Austin, but I had to take the 06:50 flight from Austin Guess I can't complain when I get to fly for free. (miles: there are in fact perks to being a road warrior)

Anyway, we will be in Wuerzburg Germany Sandy's home, her parents brothers and sisters etc are all there in a little town called Gerbrunn. This time we will do some tourist type events. Michelle is 18 and even though she has been back and forth to Germany many times over the last eight years it hasn't been to play tourist.

Anyway I plan to get to Ingolstadt at a minimum, and for her probably the cinderela castle, etc. We'll see I've got two weeks.

Looks like you will have a grand time and I know you have been very busy so I hope you get to relax and have a great time!

I believe the A7 Sportback is probably on display at the Audi factory or museum in Ingolstadt now.

Not sure, I just surmise this from seeing certain press releases.
I donīt remember the details or sources, though.

Ahh it was a golden day! I drank cold beer in your honor and worshiped at the Audi Palace! Hopefully tomorrow I can post some pics. My family is keeping me very busy.
I did get the oppurtunity to sit in a TTRS today and a A1
