Walk in the park…

After the boat tour, I figured I head toward the Rheinpark on foot so I could experience the Kölner Seilbahn, a cable car that runs from the park to the other side of the river.

On the way, I shot a mega panorama looking back toward the west side of the river.river wide_4577 (1024x249)I also took one of the park, which is expansive and carpeted with acres of perfectly manicured grass.Rheinpark_4617 (1024x313)The place is littered with playgrounds, fountains and other eye-catching features.IMG_4594 (1024x683) IMG_4604 (1024x683) IMG_4602 (1024x683)A whole group of tourists went by on Segways and I didn’t clothesline a single one of them. Chalk it up to the summer cheer.IMG_4589 (1024x683)The water lilies were especially beautiful.Copy of IMG_4606 (1024x683)IMG_4608 (1024x683)IMG_4608 (1024x685) I had intended to lay down in the shade and listen to some music, but got distracted once I got close to the cable cars.IMG_4620 (683x1024)
