Eau de Cologne!

Sorry for the late post today, but I was on a train most of the day traveling to Cologne! I totally couldn't find my Eurail pass just as the train pulled into the Berlin Hbf station today, so I spent about fifteen minutes trying to convince a very German train worker guy that I was legit, and throwing receipts and all kinds of other paperwork in his face, until he managed to spit out the German equivalent for "Its all good" and let me sit down. I found my pass approximately 30 seconds after he walked away, which is surprising because as often as I lose things, I'd say its about darn time I lost something on this trip. Seriously... I haven't lost so much as a bobby pin or hairband or piece of floss. Kudos, and KNOCK ON WOOD.

I just arrived here in Cologne. I'm only here because it was the most direct way to make it back to Paris to catch my train to Madrid tomorrow night. i almost wish I had more time here though, it seems pretty neat. But I must get to SPAIN to start studying again and stop being a clueless nomad :)
