    The first one isn't a visit, it's just a message that means their central hub in Koeln has the package details etc. It's a bit misleading, but don't worry about it.

    I wouldn't worry about it. Looks like a minor timewarp where your laptop went backwards in time while in Shanghai and somehow found itself in Germany. It noticed this and corrected itself pretty fast though. Happens all the time.
