Cologne (Köln), You Stink!!

I am happy to report that we made it to Cologne (Köln) without any troubles!

We were rerouted and delayed by 2 hours.  Let me first start by saying that Köln doesn't stink but getting here did.  Our trains were delayed, and we got off at the wrong in-city S-Bahn station so we had to walk about an hour in the rain to get to our hostel.  But we made it!

Hostel 404 - we found you!

We got in late once again, so we just decided to head to get food and hit they hay.  We went to a wonderful restaurant right across the street.  We both had Kölner schnitzel and beer.  It was fantastic!

The following day we went to the city square and visited the enormous cathedral famous here in Köln.

It was big and religious!

In the cathedral, there was also a treasury.  It was really neat to see all the jewels, and staves, and artifacts.

We then walked over to the Chocolate Museum!  It was amazing, and we made our own chocolate bars! Can you see it?

The Spenny - Pistachios, Black Currants, Cayenne, and Ground Vanilla Bean

We then walked over to Hohenzollernbrücke, the great bridge in Köln.  People like to put locks on the bridge with their and their love's initials on it to symbolize their eternal and lasting love.  Too bad about half won't work out! Lawl!

Locks!

This person understands true love - Miao

And that was Köln! It was great, but tomorrow we head out of Germany and on to Amsterdam! Wish us good luck in our travels.  And let's see if we can make it without any major travel delays.

See ya!
