The Lone Diner in Köln

Cologne Alone

The day began with a visit to the excellent Saturn music shop before a very bog standard Curry at the award winning Kamasutra. Jonathan was driving to Rotterdam, Steve and Juliet had to find their way back to Weeze. Hector was left with a day to himself in Köln, a day to catch up on some Blogging. There had to be Bier.

 Do you remember Sion?

Having walked through the Weihnachtsmarkt at Neumarkt I ended up back at the Dom. Sion looked a peaceful place to sit and so I located myself at a table at the entrance vestibule. The was Curry-Heute to write about which definitely takes priority over the Bier-Traveller Blog. I was hoping that Wi-fi would be widely available, however it was only at the Airport where I found a decent Kostenlos Link and managed to do some posting.

A couple of test tubes at Sion was a pleasant change. I believe Steve and Juliet had dropped in yesterday. Not as famous as the Big Three Kölsch outlets, Sion is certainly worth the visit.

Rather than abuse the hospitality, as in can one really spend half an afternoon over two glasses of Kolsch, I relocated to Früh am Dom. Here I found a very silly table for one in the Restaurant room and completed my writing for the day. Once again on a two Kolsch limit, this was a splendid and relaxing way to spend a Monday afternoon on one’s lonesome.

For the final time with Mr Stelios for the foreseeable, I took the on-time flight back to Edinburgh where the ever dutiful Marg was waiting to whisk the Hector home.

 This was end of the first day proper of the vacation, did I mention I am on holiday?
