As part of the Tour de Larry, I have included my hotels and travels. I have stayed at discount hotels or used hotels.com last minute to get a good deal. This is the Ibis Budget Airport Dusseldorf, about ten miles and world apart from Dusseldorf. It is modest, and just what I needed, and 3 nights costs less than 1 night in HQ hotel (one of the 3).

I took this video in the morning after a great night sleep, and thought you might enjoy it, from my hotel and hotel window. It does look like Wisconsin countryside, which I miss immensely.
Watch for the presser, which will be my next post.
