Day 0: Singapore-Munich (via Warsaw)

Day 1 of the trip ! Look through the extra log day!

It’s now 1151 and the Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner is Super comfy with TV’s and smart windows. The trip has been good so far.It’s really nice! our bikes went Well on the travel from Home to the Airport.The Guy driving the car even recognised me from our Seoul Busan Trip! !

Riding Polish LOT wasn’t a bad Idea either even though delays were prominent!

The Windows turn dark when you press the button!

The plane Also had a Chinese English and polish Announcement system. But now it’s asking me to turn my phone to Airplane Mode. I’d better turn it off!

Goodnight and (yawn) sleep we-(yawn) well!

The Next morning( or rather 3 hours after I slept) I woke up and stared at dad, who was sleeping . I turned on the TV and found a show. But daddy woke up so I turned off the TV and looked outside.

It was beautiful and the cabin was filled with neon lights because the sun was a different colour. Daddy gave a green light to watch TV. After all don’t waste your money!

I watched 2 movies , 3 TV shows and a documentary about the sun. Breakfast was served and there was a Polish sausage with a lasagna looking food. matter

Not long after we arrived in Warsaw In Poland 🇵🇱 where World War 2 happened. Because we were 2 hours late , all the connecting flights that passengers were rebooked . They announced connections( including us) Heathrow, Munich, and many other countries. Flights were by Lufthansa and Polish LOT . We got a Lufthansa plane and went to the Transfer center to get our boarding passes. We watched planes in the airport because the queue was long.

Dad asked the Officer and he told us we had to get a Polish LOT to Munich as Lufthansa could not take our bicycles. So we got these things …

  • A Flight at 5pm
  • Free Taxi Vouchers
  • Time to go and explore Warsaw
  • I dont know weather that was good or bad.Mummy got her insurance back because of the delay , we got a exploration time in Warsaw, but we had to miss a good Sausage dinner. We walked around town and saw that Poland’s transport system was not bad.
  • They even had Trams!
  • We walked and stopped at a coffee place at Warsaw old town, and we saw a church there. It was what church would be like without PowerPoint! There even was something called an “confession box” . We walked to a square which was formerly called Adolf hitler Sq. What an Idiotic name for a place. There was a Meimorial at that place for the war with live soldiers.
  • No I don’t mean the ones in the war silly 😛…
  • there was an eternal Fire and it was to symbolise that the Memories of the Holucast and Jews would never fade away. We walked to The Central station and found a nice and (Expensive) Lunch, since we saved on the Insurance.
  • I’ll go through the meal . It was scrumptious!
  • For the appitizer there was a bread thing . It was like a cracker.
  • Next was the Dumplings with full of meat , onion sauce , sour cream and lard which was pork or duck.
  • The soup was definitely something. It was rhye and it was very rich and hearty. After a break, the Most fun part came. The duck.
  • (video not ready)

  • After all that , the outcome was awesome.
  • Then the beef came . It had three sauces , mushroom , cheese and Sweet Chili. The pictures explain itself.

    After the lunch we were stuffed full and I was tired. Ready to sleep on that plane! The restaurant ambedience was another factor that made the atmosphere sleepy.

    But finding a taxi was no easy feat. We needed ele taxi to do the drive.We went to The Central Station and we saw a guy who claimed he was ele taxi but he didn’t accept the voucher. We Asked the police and he told us to call them to book the taxi. We went back to the restaurant but saw a hotel and gave it a try. We searched and found an ele taxi, who accepted the voucher. Yay!

    Looking back at Poland, we are lucky to stop here and see around ! It nice to see the county.

    Now as I sit in the taxi, I thank God for that delay and visiting Poland Warsaw City.

    We went to the playground after clearing Immigration and it was really fun.

    We headed to the gate of the flight and we waited there for a short 10 minutes then an announcement came on ..

    Dear passengers, the flight LO335 will be delayed by 1-2 hours. Thank you.

    We sighed and looked around at the crowded gate.

    We decided to go up to McDonald’s to enjoy some snacks.

    Daddy got coffee, I got iced tea and tally had chicken nuggets, while we waited for news.

    We passed time playing at the playground with a trampoline! Then it was time for that flight. We rode buses to the plane . It was an Embrarer 190-200.

    I slept for most of the flight and woke up with a jolt of the landing at Munich Airport. Munich Airport was big.

    we walked through the gate and down three travelators, a set of escalators , a shuttle train and three more travelators.

    We waited for Daddy as he getting the bikes , and we watched the baggage go around.

    The environment was different as almost everything was managed by Polish LOT In Warsaw and here the one behind the table is Lufthansa. Sadly, the Wifi Didnt work in this Airport. I was hoping I could upload something’s .

    We rushed down to the train platform to catch the train to RE regensburg . Daddy rushed into Terminal 1 of the Airport ( he probably didn’t know it) and went down to the platform to find out that the train was slightly delayed. The next 20 Minutes were quite confusing. For the first 1 minute daddy tried to figure out which was platform 1/2. Then for the next 9 minutes he was figuring out which train went to regensburg. The train which hogged up the platform is as below

    In fact, the train we were taking was two trains away. Firstly it was the fat train, then it was an ‘Do not board’ train, then it was our train. For the next ten minutes was the ‘uncertain waiting time’. We wondered if we had missed the train or we were supposed to take this train or that train blah blah blah….

    Dusche Bhan …

    Now we’re on the train relaxing. Especially Daddy!

    I was playing my DB Sim too( while on a DB Train 🤣🤣🤣)

    Daddy asked weather there was WiFi on the train . The Answer was

    We passed our first station about 20 minutes in the ride. It was Frising . small but nice station.

    I started to feel the urge to pee , so I went to the beautiful toilet 🚾.

    Just at that moment, we arrived at the second station, Moosburg. It didn’t look quite ready for the 21 century DB trains.

    As I write this, it is getting to a chilly 15 degrees! The sun has almost set too.

    We arrived at Landshut(Bay) Hbf stop. There were three other trains at the stations. One of them was going to Passau.

    There was a RB Train

    An RE Train

    And the last one : an Regio Train.

    The Next stop is Newfarn (Niederbay) but before that I just realised that we were in a tunnel! It probably went through the mountains or something.

    Daddy made me eat the sandwich so I couldn’t take so much photos.

    The station was deserted but would probably look nice in the daytime.

    The next stop was Eggmül. It sounded like they had good eggs but all that I saw in the station was a hut with the sign Infomation , a light and a seat. Nothing much to picture here.

    Then came Hagglestead or something. I couldn’t see much because I was sleepy but it didn’t look like a great place to operate trains from.

    Then Köfering came out on the loudspeakers. It reminded me of math don’t ask me why. It was really hard go captire but there was a nice cosy place to stay and a few signs and lights.

    now obertrauing was a tiny little station with a tiny little life with a tiny bit of pictures. It had a waiting house /main area and had some construction going on.

    Daddy said there was one small stop we would miss .Now we are on to Regensburg. “The final stop of this train. Thank you for traveling with Dusctche Bhan. We hope you travel with us again”

    This is what had been actually said in the real world: blah blah blah (German)

    We all saw that Regensburg was just a simple station. It had a bit of everything you needed from extra tracks to extra food to extra tickets . We got the soup and it was really good!

    There was even a vending machine that vended soup…

    After the soup was the hotel. We found it and checked in to the Inn. It was small and nice and we got a room that was like a cabin ! We drank the soup before showering. Daddy also unpacked and fixed the bikes!

    That all happened when we were going to sleep…

    That day was a Long day. I mean literally it was a 30 hour day, and every transfer connection had delays. But I still thank God for his protection ! We arrived in Germany safely.
