Day 6: Friday 5/13/2016
This was the first day we got to sleep in a little bit so
that was very nice. Today was a day of BMW. First we walked through the BMW
museum. I loved seeing all of the cars and how they have changed over the
years. The new cars are so nice I wanted to buy one on the spot (mom you’ll see
the credit card charge in a few days). The new i8 and the Rolls Royce are two
of the most beautiful cars I have ever seen. Also, seeing the BMW M series just
added to my love for that car and my dream of owning one, one day. Next we
toured the factory were they produce M4’s as well as a few other models. This
was by far the coolest tour yet for a few reasons. First, seeing KUKA robots at
work was really cool since we had toured their factory a few days earlier.
Second, being able to follow how a car gets made starting with the pressing of
aluminum to form the body and ending with workers testing the car was
fascinating. The fact that every step is automated and done by robots is
amazing. I also learned today that Jan is one of the worst golfers I have ever
seen (he tried changing it to “most awesome”).
