Cologne, Wuppertal, and Duesseldorf, all in one day!

Dear Family, Tuesday November 4th 2008
Mommy and I slept in a bit this morning, which as we still dozed off a bunch during the day, we obviously needed. We got up, went to the chocolate museum (stopping at many a Christmas store along the way) and enjoyed watching the production of chocolate. We had some cake and hot chocolate in the cafe, and then boarded the train to Wuppertal.

Wuppertal is a small city, famous for its suspended monorail called the Schwebebahn. We rode around it all the way, then got back on the ICE to Düsseldorf. There it was too dark to take pictures of the churches or anything, so we just walked around, looked in stores, and ate dinner.

We arrived back in Köln just in time to go to the Dom and listen to Mozarts Requiem. It was clear after 5 minutes that we had not received enough sleep, so we left and stopped by at a few corner stores along the way to the hotel.

Currently we are packing our bags for tomorrow, and going to bed early!
Hope all is well,
Anna
