Not sure where you started from and I'm not going to get out a map to understand the distances involved but my guess would be that you overfilled the coolant and it's coming out of the overflow line and dripping onto the pavement. I recommend getting a strong flashlight so that you can see the coolant in the reservoir. Slightly bump the reservoir and you should be able to see the level when it sloshes around. If it's low you can buy a gallon of the pre-mixed Porsche compatible coolant at the local parts store and add some. Worst case, you can add distilled water alone and even more worst case is you add tap water if necessary to get you where you need to go. If it's low be extremely cautious about running out of coolant somewhere because it's going somewhere it shouldn't either on the road or into the engine.
