    I absolutely love Germany, it's a pleasure to visit a country where the population take pride in their built environment.German's don't use their streets like open-air rubbish bins like we do here. It grieves me to say it, as we have some of the most stunning cities and countryside in the world, but many take it for granted and abuse it. I can think of no more jarring example of this than when I saw a lady changing a baby's soiled nappy on Gold Hill in Shaftesbury and then proceeded to leave it in the gutter, and walk away !

      Brits have forgotten the “don’t sh!t on your own doorstep” saying. Haven’t seen anywhere in the visited countries and cities of Europe quite as grimy, littered, and run down as most of the UK main towns and inner cities.

    Hey Joe, back in '77 when I was 12 my Dad got posted from Canada to Larkhill England with the artillery. My Grandparents came over from Canada to visit us and we went on a tour of Europe. Driving through Cologne in our VW station wagon, we went past the cathedral and while everyone else was looking at it, my Grandpa was looking at the railyard across the road. He elbowed me in the ribs and said, "You see that railyard? I bombed that." LOL. I'll never forget that.

I'm use to going to Ukraine, where I went every summer, for many years. However, that was before the war. Germany looks more western, so I think I'll be able to get along well.

    Hi Joe. I’m an ardent follower of yours. It was a great surprise to watch your travel log on Cologne. I’m 83 and spent nearly 3 years of my youth in this lovely city. I was 17 and just a kid. It was the best time of my life and left a lasting impression on me. They were still clearing rubble when I was there and everybody had to do their bit. A wonderful work ethic. I’m too old to revisit so thanks for your presentation.

    I remember at the age of 10 in 1951 standing on the steps of Cologne Cathedral and looking out at what was still a scene of devastation, with not a building standing within 5-700m. The Allies certainly bombed it badly, but knowing the accuracy of bombing in those days, the survival of the Cathedral may have been an element of luck, even if the intention was to leave it untouched.

    Interesting video. I visited Cologne in early 1980 as was working for a couple of months in Amsterdam on secondment from my job in Liberia and, being a Brit, was keen to see Tony Woodcock play. Was out of luck as he was injured. I had a hired car and I recall my plan to find the stadium was to look out for cars with footy fans. Worked out fine and had no problem getting a ticket. The internet makes such experiences too easy nowadays.....

You have a great voice with a clear, perfect rhythm. My favorite bit was in the art gallery. Loved hearing about the life of the artist.You could dwell on a few artworks while speaking. Would also love to see some slow close-ups of the locks on the bridge.

    I love breakfast in Germany the bread rolls are simply amazing, so fresh and tasty. My hotel in Berlin was only a 3 star but the breakfast buffet was something to look forward to, the cooked sausage, bacon and eggs were great. Better than a bloody premier inn where you have to pay a small fortune for an unispiring breakfast. Love Germany, the style, the culture and the quirky German humour. Their beer in wunderbar.
