Day 30: If they have no bread, let them eat cake!

ተሓቲሙ: 02.10.2017

Our last day of travel began well-rested with a breakfast consisting of Matilde cocoa and an incredibly sweet princess roll that we had bought on sale the day before.


Even though the strong wind whipped the drizzle and the sea around outside, we had to leave our accommodation on Fanø at eleven o'clock. One last time, the backpacks were packed and it was off to the ferry to Esbjerg.

Once we arrived here, we had to wait a while for the next train to Lunderskov - if we had waited another hour, we would have been stuck in the boring cold of the provincial train station in Lunderskov. At least we had a roof over our heads and were protected from the wind.


Eventually, the relieving, warm IC finally arrived and we were on our way to Germany. It felt a bit like Scandinavia wanted to finally get rid of us with the constant rain on this day. :D

We spent the journey talking about all kinds of things, possible and impossible. Since we had already eaten our sandwiches during the waiting time at the train station, all that was left was the remaining princess roll - following the motto 'If they have no bread, let them eat cake!' (Quote from Anne Antoinette Sekels :P)


Finally, we set foot on German soil again in Hamburg for the first time in a month. Somehow, getting on the completely overcrowded ICE here worked much less civilized than in the past weeks - there were plenty of people and their outrageous amounts of luggage between us and our fortunately reserved seats.


After about an hour and a half, our paths separated in Hanover. The remaining groceries were quickly divided up and after a final hug, at least one of us was back home - for the other, the journey continued to Frankfurt.

Shortly before midnight, the journey was finally over for both of us.


It has probably become clear from these blog entries what a special experience these 30 days were for us. Nevertheless, we will sit down again during the week and draw a small conclusion - so that nothing is forgotten, like the many newly learned Finnish words. :D
