Booked tickets in the "neutral" section a month ago.
Flights were expensive, and logistics tricky, so we're driving over. Through the tunnel and overnight on Wednesday at Venlo. Over to Wolfsburg on Thursday. Friday night in Bruges. A proper road trip.
Wolfsburg is twinned with Luton, which is all you need to know! It doesn't have a traditional medieval square like every other German town. However it has one of the highest per capita incomes in Germany, so there must be some refreshment places for the locals to spend all their money.
We're staying in a place called Gifhorn, about 3 miles outside the centre.
