Koelner Dom

We did many fun things today. One of them was visit the massive cathedral here in Cologne. We climbed the bell tower. It was 533 steps and about 150 meters high. A good reminder I should go to the gym tomorrow. It is a lovely church with a very nice view of the Rhine.

I also learned som German phrases. Jan and I practiced them on the stairs and all over the city:

Der Rhein ist ein Fluss
Die Kirmes ist am Fluss

If you can figure out what a Kirmes is then you will know what we did tonight. Otherwise you will have to wait for another blog.

I also taught Jan 6 English words. I only have to learn one a day but he has to learn more because he is better. Today they were: crush, gravy, awkward, yeast, mould, keg
