Today, I\u2019m driving the Panamera to Kyoto for work. I could take the train, but there are several transfers, and if the connections don\u2019t line up, I could end up waiting quite a while on the platform. So I\u2019ve decided to drive.<\/p>\n
The truth is, November will probably bring my time with this 970 Panamera Edition to an end.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s been about a year and a half since this Panamera joined our family. During that time, our second child was born, and we haven\u2019t managed to go on as many drives as we\u2019d hoped. We haven\u2019t traveled far enough to look back and say, \u201cThis Panamera and I went to so many places together!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n Our longest trip was probably to Yonago\u2014and even that was for work.<\/span> So before we part ways this fall, I\u2019d like to take this Panamera to as many places as I can.<\/p>\n Thankfully, neither of our daughters gets carsick. Still, after a few hours in the car, they get bored and tired and start to fuss, so four hours is about the limit for a family outing. We once drove the Panamera to Ise, stopping for breaks along the way, and just barely made it there.<\/p>\n Even so, I\u2019d love to take the Panamera along the Venus Line. I\u2019d like to drive around Hokkaido, too. A trip to Aso might be a bit much for us just yet, but I\u2019d love to go there as well. Maybe the Ibukiyama Driveway would be doable\u2026 I\u2019ve got all kinds of destinations running through my mind.<\/p>\n Before saying goodbye to our current Panamera, I\u2019d like to take at least a couple of longer trips and make some memories. Of course, the next car joining our family will be another Panamera, just as before.
