BER Berlin Brandenburg Airport

Wie man weiß, das neue Flughafen wird nicht rechtzeitig fertig sein, aber am Wochenende gab es einen Familien Tag dort. Man konnte das Flughafen Gelände besuchen.

As you might know the new Airport won't be readdy on schedule but there was a family day there on the weekend. People could visit the Airport field.

Ich wurde fotografiert, als ich das skizziert habe.

Es gab viele Aktivitäten und Spiele, um Flugtickets zu gewinnen.

Für mich das Interessante war das Blick auf die Gates.

Schade das man das Terminal Gebäude nicht besuchen konnte.

Trains, planes and airports

On my way to Canada I traveled in one week from Hannover to Kassel (where I stop for 3 days), from Kassel to Frankfurt, from Frankfurt to Ottawa and from Ottawa to Saint John's. I miss Germany. The train travel was something I really enjoyed. The German trains are really confortable. I got the opportunity to sketch. The first one is from the restaurant car. I had a tea and sketched between Hannover and Kassel. The second one is from Kassel to the Frankfurt airport. I sat in the cabin with 3 guys that were travelling from Hannover to Munich. In the Frankfurt Airport after checking in for my flight to North America I sat in front of the Star Alliance gate. There were some people from Lufthansa doing the boarding for the flight to Edinburgh as I sat there sketching. Then came my flight to Ottawa. It was a long flight and I managed to sketch something. My last sketch in Ottawa airport was while waiting for my connection flight to St. John's, a little kid was watching the planes landing. I was dead tired, but it was such lovely picture that I had to sketch it.
