it was a very civilised, pleasant, and scenic way to see the region; despite what the potato-quality video might suggest. 10/10 the world should have more schwebebahns
indulged my inner dork today and went on a day trip to Wuppertal primarily to go on the Wuppertal Schwebebahn — one of the world's very few suspended monorails
at Heathrow, imminently off to Düsseldorf for my first ever #btconf, an occasion I've said "I really should go next year, it sounds wondrous" about at least six times. finally, we're doing it ✨
