My first flight with a plane

Sunday, 4th January 2009

The time for flying back to the Netherlands has come. Before we departured from the Netherlands with the help of Nomen wehad reserved tickets to fly with one of the planes of W!zz air. Thanks to God the flight was flawless and we take off and landed alive to the Dortmund airport. The experience was nice it’s especially cool when the plane accelerates before it takes off.and when it lowers in order to land and the landing itself, cool! I experienced to be more scary but it was quite OK.I prayed a bit before we take off and before we landed. We met Nikola another guy from the Bulgarians who lives in thesame dorm where I do. Which was a nice thing because he has already traveled from Dortmund to Arnhem and he knew whichbus we need to take to go to the central train station in Dortmund. In fact the Dortmund airport is near to another townand is 30 minutes away with a bus from the central train station. I asked few Germans which bus do we need to take and fewof them told me I had to take another bus from the one that Nikola said and I almost did which was going to be a mistake becausethis bus doesn’t go to Dortmund’s central train station but to other near town train station. Happily when I was already in thebus one Bulgarian told us that this is not the right bus so I went down from the Bus. We had to wait an hour for the next buswhich was going to Dortmund’s central train station. We went to the train station. Asked for the nearest time when we can geta ticket to Arnhem, the closest we could take required us to change trains 4 times! Terrible but since no many options wereavailable and considering the train price 38 EUR which is better than 50 EUR. We took the tickets and catched the train.The first train was really nice it had plugs in it. This is the first time I see a train with plugs pretty cool, eh! :)That traveling was exhausting for me because I haven’t slept nicely for few days. I felt like a porter. Wearing this heavybags for so long changing trains. The whole trip from Dobrich to Arnhem took us something like 24h! With bus it takes around48h but at least you don’t have to care about changing trains wearing heavy bags and so on and so on.By the way I liked Germany much more than The Netherlands. The only thing I disliked there is that people to answer to thequestions you raise in English in their native German language. But yes that’s probably normal since we’re in their country.Only a couple of ppl answered in English. I determined that I could understand a lot of the writtings in Germany. Probablythe 5 years I had “studied” that language aren’t so pointless as I thought before. Now it’s Sunday I’m staying in the Dormitoryafter I had a nice sleep last night and thinking what I’m gonna do tomorrow. Tomorrow I have a defense on one of my projectsI’m not really prepared. Actually I’m at a point of my life that I don’t care anymore what will happen. I realize that I cannotcontrol things so everything is up to God. I should note that I owe a lot to Nomen and thank him for everything he did for mewhen I was in Bulgaria and for the fact that he brought me to Sofia’s airport with his car (Honda), he call her (Hondio) :)We traveled to Sofia with Desislava and Nasko the trip was quite a fun one. Nomen has left me to drive for 100 or 150 km.He did so a couple of times when we still were in Dobrich for which I thank him as well. I also thank to God who has strenthened meagain and gave me power to successfully travel from Dobrich to Sofia and from Sofia to Dortmund and from Dortmund to Arnhem!Thanks Lord for your kind mercy!END—–
