Zwickau, Germany - 29th October 2009
By: fam-united
Then we drove to Zwickau to visit the Horch museum, the place where August Horch worked for decades. Right in the heart of the former Audi plant, one of the birthplaces of automotive history from Horch to Audi and further on to the “Trabant”, you can experience legendary automotive history.
Horch museum wrote: It is not only August Horch who is honored on the two floors of the exhibition area. The visitors may familiarize themselves with the manifold developments made during more than a century of automobile production
in Zwickau.
The highlights of Saxony’s automotive art, such as the 1911 Horch Phaeton, will fascinate you just like the DKW F1 micro car with the first standard front wheel drive ever, a sensational vehicle in its time, the elegant Horch luxury models or the Audi and Wanderer automobiles.

On our way to our holiday house, we took this photo of the landscape.
Then we drove to Czech Republic just to take a photo of the sign. Our car is in Czech Republic, while we are in Germany to take the photo - I think, it's a bit crazy.

Hranice, Czech Republic - 31st October 2009
By: fam-united
So this is the last day of October, time for us to say goodbye to Oelsnitz and our beautiful house. We needed some more diesel, so we drove to Czech Republic, because we were close to the border. There diesel is cheaper than in Germany. I think, more people had this idea to buy it there, because we had to wait more than half an hour before we were at the diesel fuel pump.
It had frost outside, so it was rather cold in the car too.

Bruchsal, Germany - 5th December 2009

Today evening my hosts had a dinner called "Würstchen im Schlafrock" (kilted sausages). My host wanted some fresh vegetables in it, but there was only one small piece of a tomato. They also had a beer called Rauchbier, so it was a very special dinner.

I left my German hosts now to travel to Greece and celebrate Christmas there. I hope, the travel won't take a too long time, I'm so excited to stay at a new place soon.
At fam-united's home I met:
Galo, Spooky, Jimmy_D, Ceryni, BineHH, Cilly, Mandy Sheep, Scotty, Schnuffi, Hasi, Coco, Little, Homer, Jennifer, Kari, Carlisle, Penny_Bo, Precious, Tito, Friendship Bear, Nanu the cub, Manganinnie, Smooch, Pinkz. I also met some of olgamaus' guests, but I can't remember their names. I had been on photos together with all these toyvoyager friends, except Cilly, but I had been to Bretten with her. I just tried to count my friends and think, they are about 25 toyvoyagers. Am I right? Oh, I forgot FoxForce, so there are 26. And LucyK - 27 toyvoyager friends.
