Köln with Kairi!

---

This morning I awoke at 7:30 and prepared myself for the day trip to cologne that Kairi and I had planned a while ago. The trip ended up being a huge hunk of awesome Christmas shopping fun. Both Kairi and I got some great stuff for ourselves as well as for our families. The christmas Market in cologne was open and I swear to you my dearest reader there is no better atmostphere than that of a German Christmas Market. There were a ridiculous amount of people there I heard languages and accents from all over. Kairi and I bought chocolate covered strawberries and waffles...with chocolate sauce. we also found the American Apparel store ( which was totally awesome ) but not withought a great deal of difficulty. I had to ask at least six different peope before we were able to locate the proper place.

These were common and one of my favorite parts of the Christmas Markets. I never rode one, but I still found them plesant.

This was in the morning BEFORE the millions of people showed up.

And this was in the evening, but it still doesn't accurately show just the multitude of people that actually occupied the market that night.
