No special connections needed, Its a small place and I am staying as Sabine's mother's hotel where I always stay. Walter Rohrl and Mario Thiessen were staying here. So was Chris Harris. Olaf Manthey was dining there.I ran into them in the restaurant. I asked Sabine''s mother if she was around and she dropped in and brought me up to her farm. Only about 1500 people live in the area. There are much,much more luxurious hotels than this one, but its where you want to be. Its a whole lot easier than it sounds.

Nope..no interest in being photographed with these folks, Hoping to get on the track today and there will be some photos from that. Looks wet though so will be treacherous to say the least. Never sure when they will open. Its a crapshoot here.

Nice to have one of these in your back yard to go to Mosport. She's a licensed helicopter pilot.

It's a good thing they have the logos taped over otherwise we might be able to figure out it's a Bimmer, lol.

You can say that again. When it's my turn to go, I'll make sure to get the name and address from you.

Hi Ronan,

Absolutely Fantastic Trip!! Wow!!

I think the picture of the station wagon is the new 5 series. Looks very similar to the 7 series. Thank goodness it has been deBangleized.

Cheers,
Tenzin
