Cruising the Rhine

We spent most of the day cruising on the Rhine. Picnic hamper complete with wine...It was sooo relaxing! And the sun put in an appearance too! What more could we ask 😍

We went on a “3hr tour” but the weather did not get rough and we did not end up on an uncharted desert island ...bahaha...(Gilligan’s Island)

...and then when one drops ones glasses in the water...brrrrrr








View of Düsseldorf from the water






























Co-pilot


....they even flew this weird looking flag 😉


Ended the day with a bbq


Thank you for a great weekend 😘








Neunkirchen Seelscheid, Bonn & Bad Honnef



We arrived at our weekend destination in Neunkirchen seelscheid and managed to have a relaxing morning...enjoying a cup of coffee and walking around the garden. The weather is so nice here! 


Lawnmower...works by itself! How cool is that!








Beatte took us for a tour around the countryside in her electric car...so cool 


Look carefully you might see the Dom in Cologne




Bonn
The cherry blossoms are just starting...this would be spectacular when in full bloom
Met up with Reika and her parents and spent the afternoon with them. So grateful to have some time with them 😘








Beethoven (know the name of this one!)


The market was very cool....loved the dried fruit





Town Hall


Had lunch near the town hall...and by the time we left they were on the 4th wedding!




Part of the University 


This is the castle we visited








Bad Honnef ....Reika's house is there...can you see it?! 


Looking towards Bonn







Hey Max...it's not so bad!

Cologne

Antonia and Anne safely escorted us to the right platform which enabled us to get on the right train to Cologne. There was a train before ours that was called the Party Train....everyone on board was definitely on a mission to having a good time! It was only 11 am and the drinking had definitely started...made us wonder if we were making a bad decision 😂😂😂

We were greeted by Svenja, Leonie and Beatte in Cologne...the girls are so tall...or perhaps I am shrinking?! After dropping our bags at the car we headed off to have a bite of lunch and explored a bit of the city. The Dom was spectacular! I kept thinking this is only a movie... Then we took a tour on a hop on and off bus....so much to see


























Wolf?! 😘


Every city so far has their statue...don’t ask me the names


Love the outdoor eateries















The Rhine








Bahaha














Thank you ladies for the wonderful day!
