Greetings from Cologne! Germany, that is!
Arrived on the night train--slept most of the way, which was nice. The day started out sunny, but now it looks like rain. Gonna try to get some more sight-seeing in now, so I gotta run--besides, people are waiting for this free internet access, so I better not hog it.

:hi:

2. I prefer to see it called Köln.
If Peking is now Beijing, then it is Köln, Deutschland.

11. I had a mute guy steal my beer..
at the McDonald's across from the Dom. A few blocks away from that McDonald's is the best hostel in Europe. Down comforters. It was hard to leave that place.
