Our neighbors are American. Nearly every trip we come across an American couple in one of the campgrounds. It’s funny how your ear is drawn to your own accent. When I went outside I heard them talking to each other inside their van. They are here on a trial run with a rental van to see if they want to buy one for future use. We had a nice chat and they asked some questions about our experience over here. It was fun to be able to share our experience with them.
As I said yesterday we have a check engine light that needs to be diagnosed. Luckily there is a Fiat dealer only 5 kilometers away, so once we got going we headed over there. Again luckily, they were able to squeeze us in to their schedule today. We had to wait a couple of hours in their nice customer waiting area. Ton used the time and their WiFi to download some shows onto her iPad.
Again luckily, the check engine light was caused by a one time event with our diesel exhaust system so all they had to do was reset the computer and we were on our way. The rest of the day was spent grocery shopping at the giant Asian grocery near by, and at a Lidl for meats and vegetables. All in all it was a productive day.
