Ass-Fart to Wankum!
Ok first, Harley is home! I’ll have some pics later when I actually see him awake!
We made pretty good time, getting to Moers, Germany and back between 2pm - 12am with time to stop for dinner in the city center and take in a little bit of the local scenery.
Ausfahrt has been replaced as our most amusingly dirty road sign. On our way to pick up Harley, we saw a sign for a town called Wankum. An Ass-fart to Wankum, no less!
Xander was laughing so hard he could barely drive, and I didn’t get my camera out quick enough so I had to snatch this photo from someone elses website. Just to prove that this place actually does exist.
I’m sure it’s not so bad when you are German, but what English speaking human being would want to tell people they are from a place called Wankum?
Hey dude, what are you doing tonight?
I’m going to Wankum!
… and that’s just off the top of my head. If I had thought a bit more about it, I could have come up with some really good ones!
