I hate airports. And especially ones which do not explicitly state what type of security control you’re going to get. I want to be organised and not cause an issue. Because it stresses me out.

Düsseldorf Airport has stressed me out beyond belief. And I am feeling deeply anxious and stressed out now. And have two flights to get through before I go to bed.

Schweißarbeiten!

Tschüss Osnabrück! Wir sehen uns wieder 👋🏻

Pünktlich unterwegs mit ICE517 in Ri. Ruhrgebiet wo ich eine Pause machen, um mit einen Freund zu treffen.

Und wo genau ist Osnaburg windy.com? 
Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung auf Autobahnen? Nein, natürlich nicht… Unglaublich.

Last train of the day I think: ICE615 züruck nach Osnabrück. I’ve got a Niedersachsen day ticket which I could use a bit more, but I’m kinda tired and think that a relaxing evening at the hotel is needed. Overall it’s been a pretty relaxing day despite the initial diversion via Münster!

Going to take an earlier train tomorrow to Duisburg so I can have some dinner with my friend who lives there. Done check in for my flight to Heathrow and thence to Glasgow.

If in doubt, be efficient with your stop naming…
“Ferry” nice here at Norddeich Mole, despite the very windy weather! Back south we go with a exceptionally grubby RE1 nach Norden.

Made it to Emden Hbf with no issues. I would do the short trip to Außenhafen, but I’ll save that for a trip where I cover the bit of line Leer > Oldenburg.

We’ve got some dwell time here so I used the opportunity to stretch my legs and take a picture of the Steuerwagen
