Today was a welcome day off! After a lie in and relaxed breakfast we headed to Cologne. First stop was a mahusive music shop with lots of instruments and techy stuff! We spent an hour looking round while Keel was dribbling over various sound equipment and I was enjoying watching all the pretty lights and smoke! We then followed Joy who had sat mav in hand to find the steak house by The Dom (cathedral). Fortunately there were some non beef options so Keel and I shared a platter of ribs, chicken, sweetcorn and wedges. It was very yummy! We then had the best part of 2 hours to explore. It was pretty grey and drizzley but still enjoyed wandering around. Went into the Dom which was huge and pretty. Walked down the the Rhine and then back to the shops. 4 H&Ms in a very short space of time! Went into the Lego shop which was very exciting-there was lots of Toy Story Lego including a giant Woody. Also Lego digital cameras and mp3 players! Got a double chocolate Dunkin Donut on the way back to the van and we sat in lots of traffic to get back to the hotel! Quick freshen up then to Hans (the guy we’re working with) for dinner. It’s his birthday today so got him a tray of Dunkin Donuts with a candle in. We ate pizza and chatted then headed back to our hotel as we’re leaving at 7.30 in the morning for some lessons in a school. Please pray for us!
