Today we had a late start to get over to the Mercedes museum. The tour was nice and we saw some of the new energy concept cars. They claim that they will release a fuel cell powered car in two years. We will see. It was nice to go through the museum with a good bit of history from the last couple of centuries. When we left, soccer fans were streaming in for a Stuttgart VfB game.
We headed over to the Porsche museum, but we thought we did not have much time to eat lunch so we grabbed sandwiches in the train station. We ended up having plenty of time. Oops. Porsche is a beautiful museum, but they focus more on power and performance, not history. Also, they have added a lot of art near the cars. They had a cleaner look in years past, now it is a jumbled mess. Andi likes it though.
We generally had good weather again. Sunny but a bit chilly when not in the sun. Later, Andi and I walked through the shopping district then went to a brand new American style mall near our hotel for burgers. We did 6.8 miles today and 7.4 yesterday.
