Wattenmeer

The famous Wattenmeer Führung. Up to your knees in mud. And there are 3 types of mud:
1. Dry mud. You do not sink much
2. Medium mud. You sink more.
3. Wet mud. You sink.

In the pic, you can see an example of dry mud.

Get Thee to Copenhaguen

It is strange. We are nearer to Denmark than to Aachen. But then, Denmark is a very big country. Reaching Copenhaguen (256km) is awfully easy. Reaching the Southern part of Jutland (259km) with public transportation is Mision Imposible.

DRIVE
Not sure whether it is the best option, since I am not sure how much the ferry costs. You should drive to Puttgarden, and cross over there.

TRAIN
Easy, comfortable, efficient. There is a direct EC (Euro City) or ICE (InterCity Express) train from Lübeck (sometimes starting in Hamburg) to Copenhaguen every 2 hours. The high speeds work for Germany, but not on the Danish side. There aren't any high speed railtracks in Denmark.

If you get the EuropaSpezial offer, you may pay as little as 49 euros for a one way ticket. Otherwise, normal price is 69, 40, which is not that bad either. Specially, for Danish standards.

And there is a big plus: you get to see how they put a train into a ferry!

BUS

I know Eurolines has one bus from Copenhaguen to Hamburg. This bus stops in Lübeck. We have not tried it, though. It takes 5 hours. But considering the price of the train, and that it is not difficult to get the special price... Up to you.

Get Thee to Berlin!

Ah, Berlin! Probalby, the coolest city in Europe. Not the nicest, nor the prettiest. But the coolest :) Here is a guide on how to get to Berlin from Lübeck.

Berlin is just 298km away from Lübeck! How great is that? Of course, it also depends to which part of Berlin you are heading, but anyway. 300km is not that far away, is it? I can almost smell the "coolness" of Berlin from my terrace.

DRIVING

Just obey your GPS, and you will get there. According to Via Michelin, it is around 3 hours.

BUS

This is a VERY interesting option. Autokraft has a direct bus to Berlin from Lübeck twice a day:
http://www.berlinlinie.de/index.php?sp=de&id=545

The trip takes around 3,5 hours, and you reach the coach station near Berlin radio station (north-west of centre)

TRAIN

Well, we all know how expensive the Deutsche Bahn can be (www.db.de). There are two ways of getting to Berlin. The expensive one, and the cheap one.

1. The expensive (shorter) option : ICE through Hamburg
2,5 hours. You get the RE (regional bahn) to Hamburg from Lübeck, this takes around 45min. Then you change and get into a shiny ICE, and enjoy the ride to Berlin. If you are lucky, book in advance, and travel during the week, you may pay as little as 29 euros for this trip. Standart price in second class is 78 euros.

2. The cheaper (slighty longer) option: RE through Bad Kleinen
3,5 hours. You get the RE to Bad Kleinen, and there you change to the RE to Berlin. You only need to stand that stupid annoying music they play whenever the train approaches a station... If you travel on a weekend, a group of up to five can travel for 30 euros (schönes Wochende Ticket). On a weekday, it is 42 euros one person. Every additional person is 6 euros more (Quer-durchs-Land Ticket)

Catch

Have not been keeping up posting the catch of the day. Anyway, so far, there has not been a big amount of bugs getting in. We are being careful with the lights at night.
