Today is a bit special: I've been playing around with my camera and managed to mount it on my cars dash board to film my way into the lab. Here is my first attempt, it's a bit too contrasty but still ok. The original video was 20 minutes, after which my camera stopped recording. I boiled it down to 2 minutes using mencoder, I hope it doesn't make you dizzy. Also, I haven't found a suitable background music for it, suggestions are welcome! Update: The new version contains music.
We start off my parking lot, right onto North Cedar Bluff Road, then left onto Middlebrook Pike which later becomes Hardin Valley Road and leads onto Pellissippi Parkway (the sharp right turned ramp onto the highway). From Pellissippi we fork right onto Bethel Valley Road where we finally approach the Gate (you should see it in one of the last frames). Here is where my camera stopped recording, which is ok since I'm not sure if I'm allowed to take any pictures inside the lab area anyway...
Oh, if you wonder why I keep using the left lane: that is the way you drive in Tennessee! The goal is to minimize lane changes while maximizing disturbance for other cars. I think I learned quite well ;)
Here is a quest for you: Count the number of gas stations you see on the way. I know it's a tough one but you will be surprised...
