Daily Update #36 – Australia and New Zealand

European Stopover

Hello from Germany!  Our flight from Singapore to Amsterdam was good.

I believe I mentioned earlier that part of the rationale for flying to Australia via Europe was due to our ability to have a stopover on the return.

It’s been great.

After selecting a slightly bigger car than planned we were on the highway towards Germany to visit my relatives.  A bonus of today’s drive was the unrestricted portion of the German Autobahn.  The recommended speed is 130km/h but really the only limit is your ability and your car’s capability.  For today it was just around 220-225km/h. I love driving on the autobahn.

Of course the best part is visiting with my relatives, specifically my cousin and her family.  It’s wonderful to be able to spend the day relaxing in their backyard and catching up.

Sadly, the jet lag will ensure an early evening, and we’ve heading back to Schiphol tomorrow morning.
