I've been to Germany a few times, but I only got to drive on the Autobahn once.
It was after dark. We had a rental BMW, me driving, my boss in the back seat. There was a light fog.
I don't remember the length of the drive - probably 30 minutes or so. I averaged about 200 kph, and the car was sweet.
The two outstanding memories were my boss' big eyes as he watched the speedometer, and having other cars overtake me and go screaming - and I mean farking rocket ship movin' - past me into the oncoming fog. Oh my goodness.
Ah, German beds, food, TV ... what a wonderful place to visit.
Thanks for the memories.

ps: I'll still be way short before 10:11am Monday morning.
