Volvo really knows how to roll out the red carpet!! So much fun; to be greeted at the airport, a nice hotel, picked up and taken to the showroom with our name on the board.
Then there she was, wheeled into a special showroom where we were introduced. Her color is “Vanilla Pearl.” We signed some papers, took a test drive, and then relaxed over lunch at the headquaters. Following lunch was a factory tour and then a test drive of a concept car that stops on its own in slow moving traffic if you are about to bump! A FULL day!!
Two other families were picking up cars so we ot to be great friends, swapping stories. Then we headed to the docks to put her on the ship and head overnight to Germany and the continent.
I didn’t sleep much from too much excitement…so it gave me more praying time.
Sooooo, since we have named all the electronics we brought with us…do we name the Car??? We are taking a poll.

Wow, the car is beautiful! Looks like you will have a lot of fun driving it!
Car looks fab. Why is she a girl car ? I have always named my cars, as you already have met Borris. The name will probably present itself at some point when you are least expecting it.
Who is doing the driving? Who is the one caressing the steering wheel? I have my guesses on whom, and thats my hypothesis on why it should be named a girl’s name.
congrats. wow!!! what a ride, i’m ready to go touring. kathy and i will be there in May!! I’m taking out a loan to come and enjoy Italy. We leave SD on May 16, to Venice and then find our way to you. Yahooooooo. Hope you still have room for us.
