Koln - Heilige Gheist!
Hi Michael enjoy that sunshine! You mustn't think ill of us you after all have set the pace with the near daily blogs with great photos. Did you get to have a look at the museum under Koln cathedral? Some great Roman stuff, mosaic floor, jewellery, reconstructured carriage,etc. Once again brought back memories. Hope you enjoyed your trip along the Rhine. Rudesheim is a lovely little village with a wine museum no less. Take care Melita

priceless Dusseldorf
in reply to my bro John - and for the info of all - retracing certain aspects of D'dorf as to the fate of my Uncle Gordon was made relatively easy by the Net - although I must admit I was assisted by that detail by in return being pretty thorough and methodical about following it - he will know what I mean. Thanks bro!

Dusseldorf, priceless.
Hi Mike, An incredible trip here. For those of you who may read this at a later date. My brother Mike has done our family an outstanding personal honour with his indefatagible search for our late Uncle Gordon. I would be challenged indeed to find anyone! who would go to the astonishing personal mission that he has achieved in Dusseldorf. Time is running out Mike, hope you catch Koln, and the Rhine cruise. Love from all the gratefull Huddo's.

red bikes and beer
Michael, hi I loved the bike! but a bit concerned about you having a couple of beers and then back on your bike! no helmet either I guess. What do you think has brought all of the Argentinians to Amsterdam I don't recall seeing one restaurant (but that was a few years ago now). I'm just catching up on your blog and photos as I had an extended long weekend of 4 days, it rained most of the time in Hallidays but we did get to see an attempt at the largest gathering of Kombis at Old Bar!!!!!! Phil is hobbling around, gout, and he doesn't even drink poor dear Take care, Melita

Michael hi thanks for the birthday greetings, you had led us all into an expectation of a daily round up and so when there was no news it was a bit worrying!! We celebrated Pete's 50th last weekend a surprise party so this weekend which is his real birthday I'm hoping to celebrate with him at Hallidays. Mum is much better and not at all phased by the house full of people last weekend. Ive been enjoying your photos and at the same time re-living our own little jaunt thru that region. I'm glad you went back to the Museum in Colmar I loved it and I enjoyed the headphone commentary! It seems my dear that unless forced you don't give yourself enough time. Did you get your jacket? Have a great time in Brugge we really enjoyed it. Take care Melita
