German trains are usually known for their delays, but both the EC to Cologne as well as the ICE to Brussels were pretty much perfectly on time. -Taking the Eurostar was a weird experience. Having to go through security checks is strange, both because the UK *should* still be in the EU (it was such a strange and honestly pretty terrible decision to leave) and because I was boarding a *train*, not a plane. The checks were quite quick though, just a scan of the luggage, then a passport check, and then it's off to the waiting area. You're only allowed to board the train about 20 minutes before departure, but you must arrive to the security checks at least 30 minutes ahead – 90 minutes are recommended, and it's honestly probably a good decision to come earlier. The waiting area did not have *nearly* enough seats for everyone, but it was fine. +Taking the Eurostar was a weird experience.

The waiting area did not have *nearly* enough seats for everyone, but it was fine. For my trip, I bought an Interrail ticket. They have tickets specifically for ERASMUS students that allow you 4 or 6 days of travel within 6 months instead of just one, but you're only allowed one outbound and one inbound trip to your home country. The ticket is great because it gives you complete freedom over which trains to use **except** the Eurostar, as you *must* book a seat in advance. Those cost 32€. The good thing is that you have a safe seat. It's important to book somewhat early (2 weeks prior is probably fine) and manually pick a seat, as the system can place you on a window-side seat with no view. diff --git a/src/routes/blog/posts.ts b/src/routes/blog/posts.ts index 764f440..8208186 100644 --- a/src/routes/blog/posts.ts +++ b/src/routes/blog/posts.ts @@ -16,13 +16,13 @@ export interface BlogPostDetails { } export const posts = new Map([ - ["2026/0128", { - date: "2026-01-05", - time: "13:00", - banner: "langstone.webp", - title: "Portsmouth Postmortem", - description: "", - }], + // ["2026/0128", { + // date: "2026-01-05", + // time: "13:00", + // banner: "langstone.webp", + // title: "Portsmouth Postmortem", + // description: "", + // }], ["2026/0129", { date: "2026-01-29", time: "16:42", diff --git a/svelte.config.js b/svelte.config.js index 3e2e272..fdd7b04 100644 --- a/svelte.config.js +++ b/svelte.config.js @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -import adapter from '@sveltejs/adapter-node'; +import adapter from '@sveltejs/adapter-static'; import { vitePreprocess } from '@sveltejs/vite-plugin-svelte'; import { mdsvex } from 'mdsvex'; import * as child_process from 'node:child_process';
