Technik Museum

During the first weekend in May, we took the train to the "Technik Museum" in Sinsheim, Germany with some friends. It was a long train ride, but well worth it. There were classic cars, elite cars, old tractors and farming equipment, trains, tanks and planes used in military combat, German military uniforms throughout history, etc, etc. The museum covered 80, 000 m2 of ground! This place was huge! The De Lorean A car that being designed now to be built in 2015.

Our friends, Mark and Jessie, checking out a chopper in the outdoor exhibit.

We got to tour the Concorde of Air France which travelled around the world in 38 hours and 13 minutes at Mach 2.02 (1350 mph)! If only we owned one of these, then we could meet up with you guys in the US for dinner tonight and make it back before bedtime! :)

The cockpit with it's plethora of controls...Kurt informed me he'd like to have this as our car for going camping with. It is the Lamborghini LM-002 that was built for Arabian Sheiks and there is only 200 of them in the world! I suggested he set his sights on a Ford or Chevy :)

He then suggested that this Ferrari could be our "Sunday car"...

Here we are at the IMAX theatre with our snazzy shades ;)

80, 000 m2? So is that big?
