Oh oh oh, how exciting! I did one of those whirl wind (if this is Tuesday it must be Belgium) trips in 1990, and loved all those places!

Cologne, the cathedral is massive! I've not seen anything like it!!

And the perfumeries there are really interesting! Scent 4711 was the big deal in 1990. EVERYONE wanted me to bring some back for them, he hee. I remember they sold gift packs with a dozen small bottles, each one fit in your palm and you could close your fist over it. So I got 2 of those to get everyone their token he hee.

If you have time in Amsterdam, take a canal cruise / guided tour in English of course. We learned SO much!!!

And I've likely said this before. If you are in to chocolate and almonds, get some Rittersport bars, with the marzipan filling. It is a dark chocolate. DELIGHFUL and a nice snack during your day.
