What an awesome weekend! 
It turned out to be a much smaller event on the day, but that meant we could be more flexible and built in an extra visit to BMW Museum and had a great meal on Saturday evening down at Garmisch Partenkirchen overlooking the mountains.
I finally got my hands on the camera -- here are the first of many pics....
FRIDAY: The low pass flight between W?rzburg and Munich
FRIDAY: Us, using lots of fuel on the autobahn, never!
FRIDAY: Out and about in Munich... without the cars
SATURDAY: We went to some place in Munich, I forget the name...
SATURDAY: Then the cruise down south from Munich -- incredible scenery and a great photo opportunity by Schloss Neuschwanstein (nr. F?ssen)...
Fortunately no one took pics of us getting into position for the photo shoot below -- talk about causing chaos
-- Note: no tractors were hurt in the making of these pictures 
TO BE CONTINUED........

Nice pictures.
The first one is really cool.
The group picture at the bar (taken by the waiter) is very nice.
The mountains look lovely.

I would have preferred to have spent that money on other mods. Well maybe I will get something back -- I finalised my formal complaint against BMW and its going out per email today and a registered letter with a reference to the email going to Head office to ensure it gets actioned.
