I prepared myself for a really long bus ride. The bus was about half the price of a train journey, so it justified the rather cramped conditions you so often find when riding long distance buses.
The bus left from behind the central rail station at 8:30am. Thank goodness, I was able to sit by myself with nobody beside me. About 3 hours into the trip, we came to the ferry crossing. I had no idea it would take close to 2 hours for the crossing, & it was great to get out of the bus & have a walk around. Not much to do on the ferry though. Did get a chance to buy some mini Jaegermeister bottles & chocolate on board though!! Marie had packed a lunch for me, so I was well prepared & didn’t go hungry.
The countryside in both Denmark & in Germany was beautiful. Remarkable how many wind turbines both these countries have invested in, with them dotted all over the countryside.
We arrived at 3:30pm, & the bus terminal was in the middle of nowhere. Luckily I grabbed a person that could speak English & she showed me how to get a ticket for the Metro & which way my stop was. The Metro system in Berlin is fantastic & I got off right in front of my hotel.
I was surprised that my hotel room was so large, I could have fit a family of four in there.
