Day Three: Stuttgart

Today we got up and had a delicious breakfast in the Saubert house

We thenheaded to Stuttgart to tour the Porsche Museum, which was impressive itself as a building.

 
The displays were great, starting with the early developement of the company by Ferdinand and Ferry Porsche. The displays  of technology and automobiles spiraled upward, progressing through the decades.  Racing and road cars were included in the display, which culminated in the Porsche 918. All of the displays had a clean sophisticated look to compliment the Porsche design style. My only complaint was the lack of one car: Porsche 959.

After a light lunch at the porsche museum, we drove to downtown stuttgart where parker and cory illegally entereda museum, we saw a german market, church, and a german choir performance. Next we stopped in at small town called bretten and then we went to eat at a town called gondelshiem. The restaurant we ate at was built in the 17th century and served as a stable, hotel for horse riders, and taven. There was also an in-house well, trough for horses and biergarten. 



Then we went to a random castle I forgot the name of and got a cool pic

After we got home, we went out on our bikes again and made a few friends at the local beirgarten. Unable to find any supermarkets or other bars open past 12 on a tuesday night, we sucessfully rode back home.
