We landed in Cologne (Koln to the Germans), this morning and after breakfast went on a walking tour ending at the mighty Cologne Cathedral. The walk was reasonably slow and we made it to the cathedral.
This cathedral is in Gothic style. Gothic style with its pointed arches, replaced the round forms of the Roman architecture.
Once up at the cathedral, we discovered a numerous shops, patios and most of all, people, as you can see in the street scene.
Bonnie managed to buy a pair of Harem pants, a blouse and a necklace, before we insisted she return to the ship, as lunch and wine were calling us.
As you all know, today is Canada Day. When we went to the dining room for lunch, the crew had set up a Canadian Flag at the entrance and baked a cake with the Canadian Flag outlined with strawberries.
We had a lazy afternoon on the ship and gathered in the lounge for the disembarkation briefing.
A sad time as the cruise has been so enjoyable that the time just flew by.
The farewell Gala Dinner was remarkable with lobster, beef and for dessert, Baked Alaska.
The next couple of pictures are with our waiter Mihai who looked after us for the entire voyage.
A couple of pictures in the lounge.
Off to bed, as we arrive in Amsterdam early, and leave on our canal trip at 8:45.
