A Trip to the Seaside at Travemunde

We used our 9 euro travel cards on the train from Lubeck to Travemunde, a 20 minute journey. My thrill at sitting on the top deck of the double decker train was diminished by the window being so dirty I couldn’t see out.

Never mind, Travemunde had a beautiful beach and the weather was warm and sunny. The beach was covered in strange contraptions, a cross between a beach hut and a deck chair, for hire.  We took the ferry to the beach on the other side of the river mouth, and back again. Then it was time for my first swim of the holiday and my first swim in the Baltic. It was refreshing! Danny also swam. There were “moonfish” jellyfish but we didn’t get stung. A nap in the sun then a large ice cream sundae before heading back to Lubeck.
