The other part of the "Static Duo" standing in front of our mode of transportation, an Audi TT Cabrio, by a vineyard where some ot the finest wine in the world is produced.

"Tour de Europa 2008" - the heading for my summer vacation 2008 - took us to the City of Vosne-Romanée which is located on Route des Grands Crus in Burgundy (Bourgogne) France, not far from the city of Dijon.

Considering the notiarity of the area, it's surprisingly off the beaten track, and you're allowed to drive around on the tractor tracks/roads right next to the vineyards.

I posted this comment to Jaiku.

If this was the US there would be a Disneyland here.

Wine and culture goes hand in hand in this timeless place.

An Audi TT is close to the pinacle of technology. We nicknamed her "Ilse" due to the voice of the navigation computer. She was usually right, and reacted with a strict or strikingly silent (disapppointed?) attitude, if we disobeyed her commands.
