The Frankfurt-Hahn airport tower, once part of a military airport. In front, a few cars on the long-term parking (which is free, by the way).

The commercial airport. Inside, there's just three boarding gates and one arriving gate

The Ryan-Air plane. Seemed modern and well maintained, and with pretty much the same legroom than any other European airline. However, there is no seat order, so that whoever is first at boarding gets to chose the best seat. Also, no free meals or drinks are served on board, which suited me fine since there's little use for such expensive luxury on a trip that just takes around an hour.

Just like on the three previous pictures, the sky is still grey just after my arrival at London Stansted.

One more shot of the plane. I was mildly surprised to see just the usual mixture of passengers on the plane, since I thought that an airline that only handles bookings via Internet and phone would attract a younger and more technically minded clientèle. Seems I was wrong.

The last short of the plane. Nothing more to say, really. :)

The coach that took me from London Stansted to Victoria Coach Station, via a number of motorways and through a lot of London. A return ticket costs just 10 GBP, as opposed to the 15 GBP the express train would have set me back just one way. I seated myself in the first row, on the left side. However, I didn't really get to enjoy the trip all that much, since the blue stuff coated on the windows means you have to focus your eyes in an unusual, straining way to see through it.
