Potsdam Warnings Or Dangers Tips by Mariajoy Top 5 Page for this destination

Potsdam Buses - sometimes they come early!

If you are standing in the middle of nowhere, having already walked 4km because you missed one bus by 5 minutes and had another 35 minute wait for the next one - and you're standing 10 meters from the bus stop taking photos of a tower that you aren't really interested in - BE CAREFUL! The bus may arrive while you are fiddling with your camera and drive straight past you because you are not AT THE BUS STOP!

Now... if you were a bus driver.... and you were driving along a looooong stretch of road with NOTHING but woodland on either side for miles and miles ... and there was a woman standing a few meters from the bus stop ..... wouldn't you think "Hmmmm... maybe she wants to catch a bus???" You would think that wouldn't you??

But No..... I wasn't exactly AT the bus stop.... and this is Germany ... so the driver wasn't stopping. I should have looked up sooner but thought I had a few more minutes before the bus was due - he was EARLY! Silly me for taking boring photos. I had another 2 km walk to the train station. Suffice to say I wasn't best pleased!
