In Cologne, I became a traveler without direction

2. Dusseldorf (Germany, 0715)-Cologne (Germany, 0716)

Morning breakfast.

Düsseldorf's youth hostel is I lived most expensive hostel, but breakfast is the best, like Western food meals, to me. Dragging luggage to walk to the train station (this road then walk past a few times, playing to 8?. ) To the station, person bought a ticket to go to Cologne (9.3?).

Public transport like train, out of Cologne station, on the square stands a world famous Cologne Cathedral or 40 minutes walk! find map North of Cologne Hotel "404."

A separate small house, white, a shop managers alone. In accordance with the online booking (15.3?), the procedure is very simple, understated not aloof, eager to draw up a map guiding me, hand over the deposit for the key, lock and safe deposit box key. The youth from the played computer lab, said nothing, I did and he's not the "instructions" to tell.

Put down your luggage walk to Cologne.

Cheap calling cards also have disadvantages, in the city on his family could not be contacted, desperate in direct dial contact reported on her daughter. 12 noon, sitting in front of a church in Cologne on hit "** 13986" phone that his wife received a telephone call, to feel better. Home is the largest of the travelers. 1 p.m., at the Cologne Cathedral sit quietly, think of your mind, take a look around. Free eye is my greatest pleasure trip. A team of Chinese tourists to fast forward and fast out of flash photography go, really boring.

In a study themselves Cologne station another direction, due to Germany's disappointment, my scene into the direction of travel.

Back to 404 hotel, warm and harmonious.

In the evening, the visit of the first meal porridge, peanut, mustard. The hotel is empty, even I, 6 passengers. I live in an attic in the evening to a 2-bit small girls, 4 3 people on Earth lived, interesting. Good sleep, adjust his own biological clock. A girl snoring, another girl midnight escape to my top of the bed, but don't know my snoring, molars. (Illustration: the quiet of the Rhine; right-hand station behind Cologne Cathedral)
