Train to Bornholm

Oops, I forgot about this. Remember the recent trip to Bornholm? We were supposed to take the 0625 train to Ystad and then transfer to ferry. We missed the train because we went to the wrong track. Boon Chuong bought the tickets and the person at the ticketing station told him to go to track 26. And so we did. We waited and waited. There was no stirring at all. No notice, no train. Finally, we decided to go back to the ticketing booth to check if anything was going on. Then we realised that the train was on track 5 and it has left. So, there you go, 4 adults and a little boy stranded. Hence we approached the lady at the ticketing booth for advice. We asked if she could help us and here is her response: "It is not my fault, you know. Hmmm....... There is another train at 1035. You can try but I am not sure."

There you go. We tried our luck and managed to get on the train although there were no seats. But it was alright because our main objective is to get to Bornholm! As for the rest of the story, you can read in my other Blog entry.....
