Abschleppwagen

On our way home - only 70 km after we started - our car broke down!!! It took us a day to find out, that it couldn't be fixed right away (and school was about to start again...)

So we got another car to drive home and our car was taken back to Germany by the ADAC - a major German automobile club!
