Time has flown by! It's hard to believe that just one year ago we tied the knot with friends & family in Mexico, and now we're pregnant and living in Germany!So what did we do? We rented an "economy" BMW and spent the weekend in Luxembourg (just a 2 hour drive from Bonn). Makayla got to dust off her French and help us navigate the narrow streets and hip restaurants of Luxembourg City.
Rich is very happy to have wheels! Especially German wheels! BMW 116d, have you heard of it? Us neither. But it was a fun 6-speed manual to take onto the Autobahn!
It also gave Makayla a chance to start learning how to drive a manual. Chances are good that our company car will be manual, and she'll be taking it to client meetings!! She's not happy....
The view of the Grund and the old city from the top floor bar of our hotel. It's really a beautiful little city, but expensive!
For you Ohioans, you may recognize the Chi Chi's sign behind Makayla. It's a bit further away, but if you get the craving, you know where to go!
You won't be surprised to hear that Kev and I considered getting a BMW 1 before settling on the Mini. Have to say it was a tough choice! Enjoy it, will be so fun. My top tip for driving a manual car.....rev through the gears! Especially second, your BM will love you for it :-)
