Pictures from David's Birthday!

We had a great 2 days celebrating David's Birthday! We really love going to museums and experiencing new places together - which is why I felt this town was a perfect place for us to go! Right when you walk out of the main station you see the Cologne Dom. Then right behind that Church are 2 museums, and just a short walk father down the river is the Chocolate museum! It was a lot of fun! And since everything was so close, it worked out better then we could have imagined!

This is during David's birthday dinner. We went to a more traditional German restaurant that is just right down the main street from us. It was really delicious, and a great time!



This is beautiful Cologne! This shot is from across the river showing the Dom at night time.



Up close to the Dom. This church was HUGE, it seemed even bigger than the Notre Dame.



We climbed over 500 steps to the top of the front towers of the Dom! And here is a great shot showing the museums right under the church and the city.



This is where we decided to have our Thanksgiving dinner! There were some groups with actual full Turkeys there. But a Cheese burger and Veggie burger were the perfect alternative for us!

I do not know if that is possible... I figure its a once in a life time opportunity for us to study in Germany so you need a once in life time Birthday gift! Or something like that haha. .
