Waterwerks 2011

It was an interesting day at Watewerks 2011. Lots of people having a good time and sharing their passion for the Volkswagen and Audi brands. It is a bit disappointing to see that early Golfs/Jettas/Sciroccos are so thin on the ground. On the other hand, it is interesting to see how the younger generations embrace car customizing in their own way. Technology has moved forward, however, many of the mods are really the same as they were back in the early 80's. And what's up with the Passats B5.5? Well under-represented as always. The W8 seemed lost in the parking lot. It seems that people graduate from Golf to Audi A4s to Porsches 911 around here. The crowds seem younger with each passing year. Perhaps I am just getting older. :-(
