Long haul

Mood: neutral
Stage notes: enjoying breakfast with Christina and Sue, two of the sisters here who hosted me for the night

I'm about to embark on a 9.5 hour train ride back to Koeln. Usually this is only a 4.5 hr. ride with the faster trains, but I am riding with a really cheap "good weekend ticket", so I can only take the slower connections. I'm looking forward to the journey however.
