Well, no snow, but lots of rain. We still go walking every day though - yesterday for 5 hours. We walked to the city tower and went up 178 meters for a revolving restaurant stay-awhile to watch the city go past us. We had an original beer brewed here in the city. We again walked through the 1 square km old town area and had a bit of a bite to eat at the, supposedly, best place to taste a bit of original Düsseldorf food. Well, if that's the best, then we're in trouble. We had raw pork meat on our plate, did we eat it?, $§%" NO!, but we did eat everything else. G does remember his mother making this raw pork stuff when he was younger, but in the now smarter years, people in North America don't generally eat it. I suppose, we could still find it in the more venturous places but I won't be looking.
Things are starting to heat up for the Karneval times coming this week. Yesterday we toured a museum just for the history of Karneval (Fasching) in Germany. It was very interesting, especially for Gerhard who hasn't experienced it yet. We will be heading out tomorrow for Köln for the actual greatest party place for Karneval and also to visit with his cousin Heidi. Today, however, we are headed out by S Bahn for the castle about 1 half hour outside of the city.
Later you folks,
J and G
