Strolling along the Rhine River, 2 blocks from our hotel, in very cold weather!

The cable car across the river that we will be on shortly.

View from the cable car of the river, the town and the highway

Getting cheesy with the Dom Cathedral in the background

The parks were so green and beautiful, especially with changing colors

Really nice looking thermal baths we saw from the vantage of the cable car

We considered going in them, but the 0 degreee weather outside steered us away from that

I was so fascinated by the leaves changing colors -- so beautiful

My jacket doesn't exactly blend in, which we thought was funny!

Classic couple picture with the Rhie River and the Dom in the background

The cathedral is the center piece of the town, able to be seen from many places

The contrast of the train and the historical statues and catherdral was neat

Up close with the Dom Cathedral

Inside the Dom

Someone looks excited to be in yet another cathedral this year!!

Inside the belltower of the cathedral at 12:00 -- we got to see the bells ring

It was so lound!

View from the top of the Dom, which was 510 stairs up

There was only a single staircase, so people going up and down had to use the same one -- this was quite a climb!

Jason got a kick out of the name "Dingleberry's"

There are dozens of churches around the city

A typical neighborhood, with so much European charm

We got blue skies for most of our time in Cologne

Jewish star hanging from this restaurant -- not expecting that here!

Another interesting angle of the cathedral

Jason was so excited to finally find the Media Park

View from Media Park with the Communications tower behind me

The Central train station, where we're catching a train to Hamburg

AND, we're still freezing!
