Thursday 05.00 am Groningen is totally covered in snow and all traffic has stopped. I buy a ticket to Leer, a small town close to the border in Germany. On the platforms a bunch of confused people stand and wait, but there is no train comming and no train to board. It's chaos all around. But in the distance a local train, all covered is ice and snow appears. eventually. I board and after half an houre it leaves for the high north, the empty land. Westgard is loading in Stade, a harbour in the north of Germany and tonight I will embark.
