Been there!

This weekend is the German GP at the Nurburgring. The one place they always highlight during this weekend is the castle at the top of the mountain. They always have nice helicopter shots of it. Here's a view from the top, overlooking the Nurburgring GP course. The GP course is in the upper right of the image. Even part of the Nordschleife is in the left of the shot. I wish they would still race on that, but there is no way...much too dangerous for the speeds of these cars today! I loved that place, and hope to go back one day!

Hooray for keeping up with these posts on a regular* schedule.

A train ride through Germany

I took a video on the train through Germany. I decided to play some piano in the background. Enjoy the scenery!

Hotel rooms - Germany

For some strange reason, I tend to take pictures of all the hotel rooms I've stayed in. These two are from my Germany trip, and there is a massive difference between the two. Here's the first, the one I stayed in for work. This was nice. It may have been the best hotel room I've ever stayed in. It was a resort/spa type place. Unfortunately I was so busy with work, I didn't have time to enjoy any of that. On top of that, it was only 80 euro a night!

And here's the second, I stayed in for the Nurburgring. I think my bed sheet in the second room was made from a fabric that is one step above burlap. It was rough...

Not like it mattered though, I had the autobahn and the Nordschleife to keep me happy! Speaking of, I should put at least one interesting picture in this post. 

Look at this, it's an Audi R8 (race prepped) with a Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera in the background! (Glad I had a small aperture for that picture!) Both just finished a lap on the Nordschleife (I drove that track too!!). So awesome. I could live in Germany, or at least somewhere within driving distance of Germany. Formula 1 teams, I'm waiting on your call.
