Viva la France

Four things we'll remember driving across the German countryside and entering France:

1) Das Autobahn is FAST. Folks here tend to pass you at 120mph (or faster. No kidding).

2) The number of windmills generating electricity is incredible. Everywhere in a farmers field or on a hill top, you seem to spot a 150 tall windmill blowing in the breeze. Their sheer number leads me to believe wind power is working.

3) Upon entering France, we discover Orangina soda is alive and well. The drink Adam remembers as a child is still sweet and ready to be shared.

4) There is nothing easy about a French e-pass. We sat for 10 minutes as a truck in front of us tried to make change.
