A flight on a jet stream

I’m back at home and I’m also very suprised that our flight was shorter than I expected but why? When I arrived at Schönefeld my father told me that we where over the Netherlands in around 12km height. We nearly reached the 1000km/h because of a jet stream. Flying on a jet stream gives the plain an enormous boost which is nearly like when you swim with the water stream. And now imagine the plain would have 1062km/h. That’s a sonic boom.

It’s nice to be home but I miss Ireland a bit. I think I’ll make holiday there when I’m done with my aprenticeship. A really beautiful land with lots of helpful and nice people.

My last advice for all is: Get a lagguage scale befor you fly home else it will be chaos at the airport or in the apartements.

Leaving On A Jet Plane

Now it has come, the day of departure.

After leaving the brightly polished house in a taxi taking us to Europa Buscentre (which is actually only a 5-minute walk away), we bought our bus tickets and got ready for a 2 hour roller coaster ride back to Dublin Airport again, where we are now sitting and waiting for the pilot to start in the direction of our beloved hometown Berlin.

To soothe you: I have not turned on my iPhone in the plane right before the start to post this. To be honest I wrote this post yesterday and scheduled it to be published today right at the time our plane is planned to departure to Berlin.

Finally, to make a connection to the title, enjoy the legendary song:
John Denver – Leaving on a Jet Plane

Fly me to the…

I’ am sitting here in the plain, waiting for takeoff and being happy going home! It was a great time and I will always remember the time I had here in Ireland! Yesterday we packed our bags did the things we had to do before we leave and at night we went to our favorite Pub to say good bye! The Pub was totally crowded so after a short stay we decided to leave. It was a bit annoying me but we had our pint of Guinness so and in the end it was all right! I’m really looking forward to this flight and I know I will be excited when I see the lights of Berlin, see my girlfriend and my family. This day is gonna be legen …wait for it…dary!
