Köln is incredibly big and busy. It's the 4th largest city in Germany. There were tons of shops and we walked around for a few hours before going into the Köln Catheral. The remains of the Three Wise Men are kept at the Cathedral. It is an enormous structure, by far the largest building I've ever seen. We planned to take a guided tour, but learned that the entire area around the altar was closed due to a choir practice and confessions. We weren't able to get very close to the altar, so we decided to walk around on our own.
After touring the Cathedral, we grabbed a few berliners and kaffee. Then we hopped back on the DB to Bingen. We came home to a heaping mound of potato pancakes. What a great day.
