Cologne, Germany

Cologne

The Cathedral in Cologne


The golden box where the bones of the three magi are said to rest


Arch upon arch upon arch...

Kolin, soot covered church, awesome sandwich with sundried tomatoes and creamed cheese, wasps in the pastry cabinet attracted to the sweetness of the cakes, the most amazing bathroom I have ever seen in my life, the fact that the bones of the three 'magi' (wise men) rest in the church, the fact that the 3 Wise Men were considered to be real people with bones, the couple dressed like extras from a Vin Diesel eastern European movie, the 11,000 (or just 11) virgins who were sacrificed in Cologne to Atilla the Hun.
