DAY 2 - Reuben Scott and Kieran

due to germany refusing us entry we had to travel a little longer today - 650 miles! oh dear
this took 14 hours in total. our team was split into 4 cars as opposed to the five due to our poor hearse dying on its wheels!
 
Aaron got to ride with two crazy danes and a japanese guy with nothing but a camera as luggage for the whole trip. As the handyman he has always been he started tearing the partition windows in the cabin of the car for ventilation.
Kieran Scott and Reuben joined the "B team" who had a 1987 elongated ganada scorpio events car.
The journey crossed namy borders. We drove in beautiul sunshine through Luxemburg, Austria and upon hitting Switzerland we got introduced to their economic abilities at the border where a 51 year old lady with a nice moustace shamelessly demanded 30 Euros to get into the European Mother of all banks.
Beautiful scenary through the mountains and then into italy where we kept the sandman away with a large italian espressos whereafter the danish guys stole the cup, saucer and teaspoon and had it glued on their car.
As part of the challenges set for each team, we "kidnapped" some locals and gave them a ride to the next village. Finally after a too long day we arrived in Slovenia and we felt that the adventure finally had begun with the longest of the day's miles behind us.
