Koln Germany (Christmas Markets)

In the middle of December, Linda and I traveled to Dusseldorf and Koln (Cologne) Germany. On one of our other adventures, we had heard about the Christmas markets in Germany.  Wow, 7 markets just in Koln.  Yes, it was cold and we had to thaw out several times, but it was a lot of fun.  We heard from others, you can take a cruise down the Rhine river to visit all the Christmas markets.  We might have to try that some time.  Now for our English word, a nappy is a diaper. What is a brolly?  Hint, you can't live without one.  Now the pictures
The cathederal in Koln.
My favorite fountain.  It is a chocolate fountain in the chocolate musuem in Koln.
The floating Christmas market
And yes, we found blooming flowers even though it was around freezing the whole time we were there.
