In addition to Monschau, we visited two other places in Germany...
Trier
We dined right there to the right of the canal:

We toured this castle-



This is a bridge covered with locks. The tradition is for couples to bring a lock, put it on the bridge, and throw the keys into the river. I wished we'd brought one.
Fountains were a big draw for Frazier wherever we went.
And here's the Chocolate Museum!
There were some Roman ruins here, too; they were underneath the City Hall!






...perhaps most exciting, visited multiple sites with Roman ruins...



...and took a ride on the canal:
Cologne







Yes, this is the Cologne that cologne was named after. Here's the info about that. I got a little bottle of the original Cologne cologne...and it is quite lovely.
But the main attraction there is this magnificent cathedral. My pictures don't do it justice; it's absolutely unbelievable. You can read more here.






It smells great! The cathedral..WOW! Quite an honor the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
