So, my aunt and father are in Germany at this moment. Yes, it is my aunt who first had my Pagoda. Yes, she is profiled in a sense, in my Pagoda Style book page. This morning, they picked up her new SLK350 on European delivery. Tonight they are in Baden-Baden, tomorrow they'll go to the Mercedes Museum back in Stuttgart. They toured Sindelfingen today. They'll tour around brother and sister, until 1-May when the drop the car in Zurich, and fly home. They are having the time of their lives, these two widowers...my father twice a widow.
Oh, my father will be 90 in June. His little sister is of the age where one does not ask, but you can do some math. My aunt was a bit afraid to take the wheel of her new car in Sindelfingen, so Dad drove. I guess he'll be doing a lot of the driving.
Talk about young at heart...how many octogenarians buy 2-seat roadsters on European delivery??? Godspeed, Jean and Caster--drive safe and have a great time!
