John

PS Peter's was the only Pagoda we saw during the 4 weeks that we were in Europe. The closest was a very nice R107 with it's top down in Oslo.


Hi, John,

The Pagodas were busy - making their way to Berlin Templehof. MB's 125th Aniversary  :-* :'(

We were supposed to be in Berlin Sept 8 but the ship couldn't make port in Warnemünde (where we would have caught the train to Berlin) because of rough seas. I would have died and gone to heaven if I ever saw that many Pagodas in one place:-)

Hi, John,

The aniversary event took place at the last weekend of August.
There were quite a few more Pagodas spread out as cars were parked by Country/Club.

Hi, Peter,

Yes, it is the 'Neckar' car. It was on the Pagode Club display. They brought it to Essen a few years ago.

A beautiful Moselle picture with the silver Pagoda. Above the vineyards overlooking Traben Trarbach.

Now it has become a glorious summer on the Mosel river
