Today was a day full of stress, traffic jam and a lot of negative energy....
The G20 summit takes place in my city, Hamburg, as everyone already know. The traffic was totally out of control just one day before the G20 summit should start because Donald Trump landed today and blocked the whole city centre. I was stuck in traffic for three hours and needed to park outside the area and take the train to reach my destination. I really want to mention that the police officer are doing a great job. You see police trucks, weapons and officers everywhere. In addition at least five helicopters are circling around the town to protect the world leaders.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
I took some pictures out of my car window to show you what happened today.
I literally was staying in that position for over 30 minutes without moving a centimeter! After waiting 50 minutes I was told that the street is blocked you need to drive a different road. If I only knew that before...
After searching for the right route I got into the second traffic jam. If I only knew what happened after that...
People turned off their motor and got out of their cars to talk to others or to ask the police officer, who blocked the street, some questions.
This place isnt even in the city centre but there were a lot of police officer doing their jobs.
I also had no internet connection because they turned off the signal for a specific area and thats why I couldnt search for a faster route....
Here are some pictures from the news to see how big the traffic jam was
-------------------------------------------------------
I just want to leave before the total chaos breaks out. The G20 summit hasnt even started yet and the town is close to be out of control. ( Not because of the safety, because of the traffic jam )
I am curious what happens next. For everybody who is in Hamburg right now - Be safe! Do not go into the centre of the city and take care of yourself!
I hope you liked the update, I will let you know if anything spectacular happens

Jeez. Buy me dinner first.

This is the dilemma that governments don't care about people. They must have some alternative plan to avoid such situations on G20 like summits. The traffic looking jammed very badly.

I just watched footage of the lines and lines of riot police, and those giant "Polizei" bus/RV/robocop-types of vehicles. It looked like storm troopers from the Empire in Star Wars. What is this world coming to...
haha yeah you´re right. Its looking crazy over here. So many police trucks, busses, cars whatever !!!
Wishing you peace and safety from Vermont. I'm sorry you are witnessing this on your home turf.. I think I speak for many, many Americans when I say we truly do not represent the actions of our government and we are also effectively silenced or made non-relevant in the eyes of those with power..
I remember when we had a global meeting in Brisbane Australia and it was a god damn nightmare for about 3 days, i feel your pain haha.
Yeah, I was never stuck in traffic for so long and the G20 summit just starts tomorrow -,-
Brisbane is an extremely tight city so it was terrible, there's only 3 or 4 ways out of the city at any given time and all the main roads intersect with each other, my friend was caught in traffic for about 5 hours to get 2kms down the road, why can't they have it out in the country side :\
do our dear leaders not know about GoToMeeting or Webex???
or at least like, do it on a goddamned weekend lol
I live in West LA area and it seemed every week obama was here to party with hollywood scums and beg for money. LA has bad enough traffic without that clown messing it up for days at a time.
I love Traffic
Benicio Del Toro is good in it
great movie
There is talk about mass demonstrations. Not sure if it anti G230, anti Trump or just Anti everything. Lets hope they are peaceful!
You should have come to visit me and get out of town before that nightmare!
Wow what a nightmare to have to deal with all that traffic delay.
it's ok for 1 time, they are doing their work. All the most important people in the world are in the same place, so it is understandable .
That's brutal, looks like chaos that must have really sucked. I am sorry you had to go through that :/
Nice post though! Followed!
Thanks for sharing the G20 Summit update, its going to be packed :)
Stay SAFE soldier!!!
I can imagine. Traffic jams are horrible.
Meanwhile i absolutely adore your glasses in your first picture. You are beautiful.
Nice to see you again in trafic, soldier! I like your look today!
If Donald vladimirovic orange is in town everybody has to wait that's great news
Hopefully what he has to say is equally classy like the security effort of the Germans
Traffic jams are very frustrating. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent I like it I really appreciated you
The reptilian brain stem that controls the earth is at it again! 7/7/17
OCD lunatics!
Geez, looks like a headache...
Take the train and get out of this bummer!
Have a nice day :)
I hope you can avoid the city center (at least before car) until the end of the summit.
Thanks for the update.... great pics on what's going on there.... definitely - Be Safe.
You got some excellent photos of it all! hope the traffic returns to normal soon.
some traffic that is, looks like LA. lookin nice while stressed, though!
ich hatte gestern so einen Tag mit der Deutschen Bahn -.-
There is lot of traffic there as its usually here in india but never seen in other countries but its really lot. One thing I noticed that when we have important work at that time this kind of problem comes. As you are in car its hard to out from that place otherwise if two wheelere then stil chance of come out from that place.
Woh! Traffic jams like those are brutal. Best of luck over the next two days of the summit would you consider walking or riding a bike those days? Let us hope good comes out of the meetings
Omg that gif, your gorgeous!
thanks for nice posting
Yup, I heard that city will be full of protesters. Im very hope that there will be fine ,without any damaging and smashing. Thanks for sharing @soldier. 🙂
You will be a foot soldier for 3 days then? :)
If the summit actually produced positive outcomes then maybe it would be worth it, but I've got a feeling that's not going to happen!
I hope you have a better day tomorrow.
I can't believe how much traffic was there! I know G20 is a huge deal and can imagine how many people were coming into town. That's all they're talking about here in the United States. Stay safe and watch out for those crazy people! I know there may be protesters or disruptions, so it's always best to stay inside that day if you can. Thanks for keeping us updated :)
Traffic is beyond frustrating! Those are minutes and hours which you will never get back and are mostly unproductive. It drives me crazy!
If Trump came to Lousiana he would be protected by the southern folks and our guns. No Police needed :)
Of course, the ones that voted and like him as a president LOL
politics makes the world go chaotic and disturb soemtimes. Yeah I think is it a National day of stress in your country as you called it State of emergency :) But keep safe and still try to enjoy the day. Thanks for sharing...
Traffic Jam is always terrible.
I always wait your post
Thank you for sharing
That's such a bummer @soldier, stuck in a traffic jam for three hours!
If only you could have been this magic little red car:
Or even better, have Bruce Almighty's powers!
Hope traffic will be better for the rest of the G20 summit.
2hrs ago and we're in our beds over here in Africa, who designed this world time zone even? Rotation of the earth? Damm!!!
Yikes! Do not get in your car again until this farce is over. Time to stay home and water your plants. Just amazing how they have all this armed security at the ready.
huge rush !!
You are still lucky if you face this situation only when any big event takes place in your city.
We have to face this situation daily, whenever a member of our Parliament or any MPA (Member of Provincial Assembly) or MNA (Member of National Assembly) moves on the road.
And yes, we sometimes have to wait for more than one hour.
I live in a town where there is only one bridge that connects north and south, and it's one that opens up for boats. We can be waiting for at least an hour just to travel 5 minutes sometimes. I really feel your pain!
Beautiful girl. Nice post @soldier
If I were you, with all that traffic, I would stay inside the house until the event is done. I don't like being in traffic.
With you I could be in a traffic jam for hours,.. But serious; its terrible what is going on,.... looks like a different planet,.. so unreal, so close by our homes ,....
You are very beautiful :)
I wish you success!
