We got up early and headed to Pforzheim for the passport. Upon being reunited with her wallet Erin checks and the cash contents are now down to 10 euros, so she passed on the idea of the reward. She then debated and ultimately decided against buying a Best of Depeche Mode cd for 8 euros, a decision she would later regret as the radio stations never miraculously improved during the hours long drive. Scott located a computer in the Rasthof and consulted the Michelin guide himself for our next meal. After much searching we discovered a restaurant with a warm kitchen and reasonable prices open until 3. The GPS got us only so close to the restaurant and every person I asked seemed to be a lunatic. We made it with 5 minutes to spare and had a nice lunch. Erin had bean soup, Scott had Schinken Wurst (which I have always thought was kind of like spam) and I had Multaschan (a kind of giant type of ravioli that is made in Southern Germany) with cheese. The wine for lunch was: Badischer Wessburundes Qualitates Troken 2005 (Scott loved it). The best thing that happened was Christian called and suggested that rather than shopping in Stuttgart we head to Metzingen where there is an outlet center with Hugo Boss where he could get a quality suit for cheap.
