Three Weeks In Paradise. 1. No Fun on the Autobahn

After years of dreaming, planning and preparing, it is about to happen: we are taking our little sailing boat called Mekicevica to the Adriatic. An expanse of 1700km of land separates the waters of Zeeland from the blue and warm Adriatic. Three days on the road with Mekicevica in tow on a hired trailer (nicknamed Trebuchet, because it resembles a medieval siege machine). Every pothole on the road makes me fear for some serious damage. A long and stressful journey. No fun, fun on the autobahn...
