Yesterday I whisked myself to #Brussels on my way from Amsterdam to Lucern, and visited #MagneticFlow exhibition by #CollectifScale. Definitely worth the while, especially for the interactive pieces.
None of the four trains of the day was particularly late, but where's the DB's first class cookie / chocolate service disappeared? What has the world come to?

One of my favourite things is to watch a bridge go up, while sipping my coffee in a very comfortable bed. #Amsterdam was good. Even if the interrail app barcode didn't work, and I had to ask for assistance every time I was going through the gates, or barge in after other people, like the rebel I am.

A Finnish dream: The whole train cabin all to my self!
A tad hasty change in Osnabrück, but so far no other excitement on my way to Amsterdam.

Just returned home in Finland from couple of weeks of #winterrail around central and western Europe. Now listening to this great record, which has one of the most charming cover photos ever.
Last week in #Paris I visited a great exhibition about Fela Anikulapo Kuti, which had more of Fela's favourite briefs on display. 😁

Note to self, among others: even if a train from Stockholm is listed as going to Copenhagen, and Copenhagen is marked as its terminal inside and outside of cars, and no announcements are made informing otherwise, that train might still terminate in Malmö, and you are told this about a nanosecond before stopping. Not the first time this happens. Anyhow, I did make it to the Hamburg train, even with the last minute suspense. Huraa!

@jamesc Usually I don't take pictures of my meals, but this time I had a premonition it might come in handy, so here you go! A roll, muesli, yoghurt, apple juice, fresh and regular cheese, some vegetables, an egg and coffee as much as I can drink. And a piece of Finnish Marianne chocolate, which I appreciate. I presume a vegan version is available, it's Sweden after all.

Some Swedish countryside on my way to Copenhagen. A beautiful fog has covered the whole southern Sweden, it seems. On a less serene note, there's "something wrong with tilting" in the train, so I keep wavering here, while announcements remind us to be careful with coffee cups. I'll drink my coffee(s) fast, to prevent it from spilling.

Happened in Norrköping: my first #trainEvacuation. Nothing dangerous, just a broken car. Some ladder climbing and rail walking involved. I still might make it my Hamburg connection from COP, but sans lunch. Luckily, the breakfast served in SJ morning trains' 1st class was quite a proper one.

The #VikingLine Turku-STO ferry arrives early enough (6:30) to catch the 8:21 train to CPH. Unfortunately, sleeping until the last minute is impossible. An hour before arrival you'll wake up to a very loud announcement, urging you to go shopping. Then, a maid opens the door appr. every fifteen minutes, to ask if the linen may be changed,. Statistically, you'll be naked at least once during these interactions. Other than that, very good connection!

Dear #Finland, your intention to kill me is quite obvious, so I'll escape to Sicily. Via a few #lightartfestivals.

@Sustainable2050 Thank you! Just what I needed before embarking on #winterrail along some of these tracks next week!
