Various observations...& pics
















Hello again my lovelies! We did our trip to Mulhouse (pronounced Moo-loos) and went to the car museum. Ah, for those decadent days when the capitalists squandered their millions on consumer goods and forgot to pay the workers...

No, honestly, the cars were incredible and what a collection. A real history of the development of motor transport. But such excess. Apparently only six Bugatti 'Royales' were ever made and there are a couple in the collection. I really enjoyed the old original vehicles that were really only bikes with more wheels and fabulous upholstery. You can see why some crafts thrived but then eventually were replaced by cheaper less labour intensive alternatives. Although, I think that you can see some things coming back through necessity...small, economical motors.

Right, am going to add some pics for you all...
