A few days ago we took the bus from Lieusaint to Stuttgart and it lasted 7 hours.
We have to confess you that our first contact with Germany was a tasty experience...
When we arrived at the
youth hostel,
we discovered our room and the hostel's restaurant which were both
modern and welcoming. From the windows we could appreciate the landscape
and the sunset.
Then, we had to ask german people about their hobbies, their favourites sport, films, Newspapers, TV show...
We were a little bit tense to meet them. We learnt from them that they love football, American movies... like us.
And the most readed daily newspaper is Sueddeutsche.
German people are very kind but they look strict.
We were disappointed by the food that was given to us at the youth hostel. We didn't find it good and it was unhealthy.
Who
don't knows that Stuttgart is the valley of the German car industries ?
Indeed Germany is well-known for it powerful car Industry. We have seen
that German are real patriots because they only drive German cars like
Mercedes, Porsche, Audi, BMW...
That was the reason why we visited the
Mercedes Museum
where J-M lost his cellphone (obviously we never found it...) but it
was a great place where we could watch the evolution of security and
engine performance. This Museum also showed us a lot of collection cars
which made me wondering for having it.
We also visited the Mercedes factory but it was stopped.
We finished the travel visiting the Porsche Museum which has an outstanding architecture.
The cheapest Porsche only cost about 60.000 euros...
We enjoyed this travel and we became a better european citizen.
