EE? Awesome!

Trust me, nothing would be better than visiting those two museums in Stuttgart and the BMW Museum in Munich...and going on a factory tour at one of those. Not only that, it would probably make my younger brother/Mechanical Engineering major/gearhead completely jealous of me.

Before I found out about Zugpsitze, I thought about swinging through Stuttgart on the way back to Frankfurt in order to visit one of the museums. Since visiting the mountain is still up in the air this leaves Stuttgart as a possibility. Besides, maybe it would be beneficial if I learned a thing or two about design.

BTW, didn’t Porsche very recently open a new museum in Stuttgart? I seem to recall reading that somewhere...
