Taking the 7:30am train out of Luxembourg, we were on a 7 hour journey to Hamburg. That's a long journey. You can only play so much Uno or so many variants of Pass the Pigs.
So we decided to break up the trip with lunch and a stretch of the legs in Cologne (Koln).

Left Luggage - it's automated and magic!
Off to explore!
We liked our short stopover in Cologne - the cathedral is right outside the main station. From there you fall into wandering around the old town, some of which is a high street with shopping that could have been anywhere in the world... but there are lots of squares and restaurants within the cobbled streets. We found the riverside and had herring for lunch at a local pub there. Yummy herring (even the wasps loved it), excellent fish fingers for T, a goats cheese salad for K.

4711 and at least one wise man? I love this place.
