Europe has had heavy snowfalls during the last weeks and the infrastructure is struggeling to cope. When I was travelling back to London with the Eurostar, I was looking at a continuing snowlandscape from Germany over Belgium and France to the UK. I arrived three hours past schedule at St. Pancras station. This time it was not the fault of Eurostar (after hundreds of passagers had been stuck in the channel tunnel for hours before Christmas) but it was Deutsche Bahn, whose train broke down briefly behind Aachen. Apart from these problems I am very happy now that I have started taking the train between Cologne and London. It is so much easier, more comfortable and less stressful to take the train (if it works properly) than to go by plane.
In Bonn we have not had so much snow and temperatures about minus 13°C for a long time.
