Travel Day! Today should have been a simple journey to Vienna for #IETF, but things keep going off the rails. Engineering works in Germany complicate things, but I found a nice, quick trip. Except that engineering works in the Netherlands made that impossible. A little reshuffle salvaged most of it. But now I see that DB moved ICE 211 to run five minutes earlier (not sure when that happened), so our connection in Mannheim is down to two minutes. To make that definitely not work, they also moved ICE 225 to a different platform. We can still change in Stuttgart, Ulm, or Augsburg, but that means our reservations will be void and I suspect 211, which goes to Graz, will be busy. With a bit of luck, ICE 225 will have so much delay by Mannheim that none of this matters, anyway.
