246: Overseas, Germany, Cologne Hbf, 04/04/09

4th April 2009

LAST UPDATED 17/04/09. CURRENTLY CONTAINS 11 PHOTOS.
Saturday morning and time to come home. I didn't have time for anything special but managed to get a few snaps from Koln Hbf while I was waiting for my train back through Belgium to the UK. The large building you can see in the background on some photos that says "Saturn" is actually the brand new Azimut Hotel. I stayed here for the week I was in Germany and can thoroughly recommend it. As an added bonus it's about 30 seconds walk from Hansaring station so you can get from your room to Koln Hbf in less than 5 minutes!
