Cologne

If cathedral towers are like mountains, I climbed the equivalent of Mt. Everest this weekend. B and I visited Cologne with family and walked around the "Dom" and by the Rhine river. We ate lunch at a place that served sausage and beer by the meter. Since neither of us is able to eat or drink that much, we stuck to light meals so we could get to the top of the Dom afterwards.


The Cologne cathedral is the third tallest in the world. Some of the old statues by the cathedral entrance and sides are being renovated so lighter pieces of stonework stand in contrast with the darker parts.
