Vacation spot?



One of my cowerkers just sent me this:

*** VW to build German auto theme park

WOLFSBURG, Germany (AP) - It's not often a theme park with its own
five-star hotel proudly overlooks a steaming industrial complex,
where sweaty workers bend iron into autos and towering smokestacks
belch skyward. But in car-crazed Germany, few cars are as venerated
as homegrown Volkswagen. Europe's biggest automaker is banking on
that fierce brand loyalty with its latest venture - a self-styled car
theme park called Autostadt, a cross between Disney World and the
Smithsonian Institute that boldly extols the virtues of the company
that brought us the Beetle. See
