Read More...Dear Klaus-Peter and Catharina, We spent a great time in your beautiful home. Our welcome by your son was so warm and informative. 14 days during the winter - but even so Cologne offers a lot of experiences. Museums, architecture, city-life, city walks. We also visited Aachen and Brühl. We have at least walked 140 kilometers during those two weeks. Is was easy to pendle between Flittard and Cologne with train and bus. We bought a week-card to public transport. We would love to see Cologne during the summer time, when it must be sizzling with outdoor life.
