Having offered to help Niki get her bags to the airport, we left Studentendorf early, planning to take the bus to the train station. This was essentially the same plan that I had for tomorrow morning when I journey to Frankfurt for my flight back to the United States. Hopefully, my trip works out a bit more smoothly than this morning. After waiting at the bus stop for fifteen minutes with no sign of the bus, we finally chose to walk to the train station, which did not take much longer than if we had gone by bus. Thankfully, the train to Frankfurt was on time. I did have an ulterior motive in going along: since this was the same route that I would be taking, having rehearsed it would make Sunday morning go much smoother.
Having said goodbye to Niki at the airport, I took the train back to Marburg. My tandem partner, Florian, and I had planned to meet up one last time before I left Germany. I walked around Oberstadt for a bit before going to meet him. It actually started to snow for a short while, though the snow was melting as it hit the ground. We had lunch, and I passed on to him a book on California, in German, that I had bought to take on my last trip to Europe back in 2008. After saying goodbye to Florian, I finished off some last-minute shopping before heading back home to finish packing my carry-on bag. Tomorrow morning is going to come very early.
