Weekend Adventure

I decided yesterday, somewhat abruptly, that I was going to visit Bonn this weekend, specifically Sunday. I've never been there, it's not that far away (maybe two hours), and it used to be the West German capital. So, decision made, I asked Sandra for recommendations of what to do there - she's from a city in the area called Cologne/Köln.

I hardly had the words out of my mouth and she's offering to drive me there and pick me up. She's visiting a friend in Köln on Saturday. Okay, fine, I leave Saturday, save the price of a Bahn ticket and now have to pay for a hotel. Cool.

Then today Sandra says her friend has an extra ticket for a Caberet show for Saturday and I'm welcome to come along if I want. Okay, I'm flexible, and it sounds fun.

Right now the plan is to leave Frankfurt tomorrow at 1pm and spend the afternoon and evening in Köln with Sandra and her friend. Then, find a hotel in the area to spend the night. On Sunday I'll take the train to Bonn, wander around, take photos, and then come back by myself on the train in the evening. Plans of course subject to change as whims hit me. :)
