It's a huge price difference, too. You pay significantly more for an automatic here in Munich.<br /><br />And narrow roads in Italy... yes. I had the experience where the road curved left and unexpectedly turned into a one-way-sorta-half road and there was a tractor coming directly at me. I froze, and the driver just wheeled around me in my panic. :Dadriprintshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03924063778972115705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034116958711987628.post-62623929957879339062013-07-29T21:46:11.905+10:002013-07-29T21:46:11.905+10:00Hahahahaha, love your funny Germans story!
Yes, ...Hahahahaha, love your funny Germans story! <br /><br />Yes, all too often a "holiday" is not really a holiday. I just like to tell myself it is an adventure. And adventures are good!<br /><br />ps: I also need to write a blog post on traveling with (smaller) children, I am an expert now.

We got an auto in Spain last year but no chance in Italy. I'm guessing the high-tech Germans would be all over the automatic gear box?<br /><br />And your comment about small cars / small roads made my laugh out loud! We (the passengers) were complaining on this trip that our driver (the husband) won't leave a small Italian town until he's found the narrowest street in the whole place, which he drives through whilst yelling 'breathe in everybody!'. ejorpinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11803356774463998436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034116958711987628.post-31537648216729423782013-07-25T18:50:20.791+10:002013-07-25T18:50:20.791+10:00Hah!

Living as an expat here in Germany has taught me many of the things you recently learned (credit cards, cash only places, traveling light - like REALLY light), but I still don't always get the sense of humor here. Rental cars vary from place to place in Europe, but I found Italy, the Netherlands, and Denmark's cars to be small (unless you're around here in the land of BMW/Audi/Mercedes). It's better to have a small rental car in Italy because the roads, especially some of the smaller town roads, can be incredibly narrow and parking is kind of a nightmare if your hired car was any bigger. ;) Sounds like you had a bit of fun in between.adriprintshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03924063778972115705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034116958711987628.post-73404919553328390382013-07-25T14:04:35.714+10:002013-07-25T14:04:35.714+10:00Thanks Cat!

And yes, travelling with smalls (or not-so-smalls in my case!) is a whole new adventure...it's the best and (sometimes) the worst, but well worth it for the best bits I think.
