Brussels and Cologne

The first stop of the trip was the little town of Grevenbroich, near Cologne, where our legendary uncle Bruno was waiting for us. The following day we went to Wuppertal, in northern Germany, the city where I was born and lived for 8 months!!! Then to Cologne, where one of the most beautiful cathedrals in the world stands.

With the super German trains we set off for Brussels, a beautiful city. Worth seeing are the town-hall square and the Mannequin Pis (the little boy peeing..... the symbol of the city). Here, as in Paris, you can find little tables outside the venues along the central alleys, to eat outdoors... even in January!
