Cologne accomplished…

We had a lot of fun in Cologne and I have plenty to write about in my travel blog. I’ll probably do that tomorrow, when I have more inclination to write. It’s almost 8:00pm now and we’re all tired. The dogs had a good time at their new pension, too. They were hanging out with a bunch of other beagles when we came to get them tonight.

So glad we took the time to see the Eagles! It was a fantastic show, probably one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to anywhere. I grew up on their music, but for a long time, people thought the band was totally finished. I’m glad to see the surviving members are still on their game. Deacon Frey, Glenn Frey’s super cute and talented son, is doing a superb job filling in for his father. Vince Gill was also fabulous! I look forward to writing up the show later.

I think I much prefer concerts in Europe. Seems like they’re less obnoxious… as long as you don’t have to drive to them when a Wasen is going on.

Off to Cologne…

It’ll be a two night trip. Going to see the Eagles for the first and probably the last time in my life. All of the bands I loved when I was young are now getting old, retiring, or dying. Last time we visited Cologne was May 2012. That time, we stayed at the Ibis next to the train station. This time we’re staying near the train station again, but in nicer digs.

I don’t know if I’ll have anything to write about while we’re gone. We’ll see what happens. The dogs are trying out their new “Hundepension”. Hopefully, it’ll be alright for them for two nights, so they’ll be ready at the end of June when we take our big road trip north.

So if I don’t write anything tomorrow or the next day, see you Thursday… probably, anyway… for the few readers who visit daily.
