Duane's depressed. . . He explicitly ordered a Peugeot and Hertz saw fit to change him out for a Fiat "Punto" . . . . Now, it is not that he has anything against Fiat, but he has a huge problem with a car named "Punto!" On top of that, the car had not been washed (It is Black) and it just had a brake job that is "Over-the-Top" grabby! Duane has put Paula through the windshield 3 times already and it is only the first day! We've driven the Punto before and despite the name, it is a great little car. Tomorrow we'll see if Paula can survive the whiplash.
On the driving report. . . So far Duane has only driven down one "One Way Road." About a block in he met a giant truck that seemed peeved (Horns and Flashing lights!) that Duane was in his way. Duane slammed the gear shift thingee into "R" and we whipped outta there in a flash. The truck driver just grinned a little as he whipped by. The Punto is fine and Paula will recover. Several natives had a good laugh! It was a good day in Chateauneuf-du-Pape!
