Default Audi car carrier pulled into port this morning...

The Orion Highway arrived in Davisville RI port this morning from Emden Germany. My TT is on board along with 3300 other cars. Just a heads up for anyone that knows theirs is onboard. Its heading to Houston to offload the rest on 20 Oct.

Default Pic of ship at Emden port picking up load...

The trip that these cars go through to make it to our shores is very interesting imho...
