Wrong train to Düsseldorf

Complicated train route
Ladies and gentlemen, my favorite breakfast of the year: cheese and ham and bread. 
Full blog from Düsseldorf to Köln Messe
Lots kind of cheese and ham!
One thing about either French or German breads, they're the best! 

Düsseldorf Ü-bahn

Meet German's any kinds of trains: very pünktlich
Kölner Dom from inside its Bahnhof

Mouthwatering Scheinshaxe

Inside the Köln Messe

Bockwurst (maybe) in the Messe's cafeteria
Next day, still in Köln, and some time off before we went back to Hong Kong from Frankfurt.
The magnificent Kölner Dom



Steakhouse recommended by receptionist
Moooooo
The drink and dessert menu
My favorite: caramel malts beer (or children beer), and dad's beer
Salad, bread, Apfelstrudel (apple pie), beef steak, and lamb chops: Guten Appetit!

Flight manager wishes us well
Fish and beef steak in The Pier
The cramped yet antique hotel
Spicy World
A little joke: the hotel's cashier, who is Indian, with a heavy Indian accent recommended this restaurant. I thought I heard "Spicy War", not "Spicy World".
Don't know which is which, but mouthwatering indeed
On our way to Northampton
Crowds waiting their trains in Euston Station

Northampton, under construction

♥ these muffins
Mongolian kebab? I forgot. Tasty, but huge.

Whether in France or UK, dogs are pretty big
