It had not occurred to me until yesterday that the mix of trees from Bavaria (where these two images are from) all the way to Berlin is strikingly similar. Such are the benefits of driving rather than flying…
On a side note. I drove 90-100 mph on average. There was heavy rain occasionally, and even one crazy snowstorm. I was overtaken by other cars frequently. Being almost an American now, this struck me as astonishing.
