Photos taken from the road. Megan got a big giggle about the gute fahrt sign on the warehouse. Exits from the highway were also funny because they were ausfahrts.
gute fahrt = good drive
ausfahrt = out drive (or drive off the highway, exit)
Yes, we did travel on the autobahn system. It is amazingly civilized driving. There are three lanes and slower traffic keeps to the right except to pass. We often travelled at 140 kmh (88 mph) and would get passed as though we were standing still. To paraphrase the line from Pirates of the Caribbean -- "Speed limits, they're actually more of a guideline."
Germany uses both nuclear power and alternative power sources. We saw one wind farm with over 60 windmills. Pretty impressive!
