Since I went to bed at 1.30 I only got about 5 hours of sleep which is definitely not enough.
My husband had plans to go hiking with a friend and left at 8 so we didn‘t even eat breakfast together. The boy and I left at 9.45. I had to admit defeat while packing, with the extra house slippers and orthotics and the extra big over-ear headphones I couldn‘t make the small backpack work. So I opted for the bigger backpack with a messenger bag inside so I can take all the entertainment and food out at once plus my purse.
We took an earlier train to Munich because we saw that the commuter trains were all late by about ten minutes. That turned out to be a theme for the day.
We were pretty lucky because while all the trains were pretty crowded we ended up with seats right at the front end of the train both times and most people get on the trains in the middle so while all seats were taken in our car there were no people standing.
I did give up on wearing my mask at one point, wearing it for hours on hours is uncomfortable enough, doing so while no one else does and it is super hot did push me over the brink. I really hope I won‘t regret it.
We had lunch on the train, our usual chili with and without meat. I did drink my first even Coke Zero.
We should have had twenty minutes to change trains in Hannover but ended up being so late that we had to almost sprint to two platforms over. Turns out running while carrying my luggage in the heat triggers my asthma a little. Harumph. Not bad enough to use the inhaler but I did slow down a little.
Which turned out not to be a problem because the second train was late as well.
I‘m happy to report my feet at least did not hurt all day yesterday. They are a bit sore right now but not too bad.
We ate dinner at my mother‘s place which was rather nice, then went back to our room at the bed and breakfast and watched an episode of „Doctor Who“. I had brought an HDMI cable so I could connect my iPad to the TV. It would be nice to be able to use my smartwatch as a remote but, well.
We went to bed at 11 and as expected the boy needs more sleep than me. Today we‘ll probably go out for lunch which should be all the excitement for the day.
Sorry for no pictures, for some reason I don‘t seem to be able to put photos in at all? Weird.
