Never mind what day it is, where on earth are we and how the heck did we get here !

 Ok so travel never goes according to plan so here are some travel bloopers. 1. Went to grab my night gown (so posh) only to find I had packed my PJ bottoms... 2. Lost part of the heel of my shoe - time to get a new pair  3. Received a $150 gift voucher from Singapore Air as an apology for something the cleaners did. However we are yet to find out what if was for, but it makes up for the need to purchase the aforementioned nightwear. 4. Arrived at Copenhagen, followed the crowd,  and nearly boarded a BA flight to London. Never knew I was so British as I spotted a queue and joined it. I blame 37 hours on the trot as we  had neither passed immigration nor had our bags 5. English is most definitely the common language of travel, especially air travel with all comms on Singapore Air in English, no more for we sit in wonder until the English version is announced. Likewise on the Fjord cruise it was all in English. 6. The hotel room in Bergen is soooo warm 27degrees. Great...

 Yes gentle traveler the time has come where I must finish this off and leave you as we are about to begin the long journey home tomorrow, so some final Ghent shots. Holding buildings upright as we rebuild, My kind of shop Breakfast So we have visited the following places, including airports where we got off the plane and bus stations, Singapore, Copenhagen, Bergen, Flam, Trondheim, Narvik, Lulea, HaparandaTornio, Kemi, Helsinki, Lausanne, Luzern, Geneva, Montreux, Zermatt, Mont Blanc, Interlachen, Annecy, Evian Les Bains, St Gervais Les Bains Le Fayet, Brussels, Ghent, Bruges Knokke, La Panne, Ypres, Antwerp, Dinant, and Koln.  We have travelled on planes, metro, ferry, trains, buses and trams - lots of the latter two. On our Eurorail pass we travelled 3k, on 47 trains to visit 22 place in four countries. This doesn't include the Scandi travel. So job well done and here's to the next trip. 

 Dear gentle traveler today we are off to Koln or Cologne because I wanted to check out the cathedral and see what else there is to see as I have only passed through on the train. To be honest the cathedral as pretty outstanding but the hop on hop off bus tour wasn't much chop which again the river cruise made up for - so I think that there is a message here for me.  There was one interesting bit on the bus tour when the poor driver ran into some road works and we had an unexpected stop. We did see a restaurant that had home made potato salad but by then we had to catch our return train,  so close but no cigar. We were travelling on a high speed ICE which required reservations. It was a five hour return trip, but another county visited and pin purchased and we do enjoy traveling along at 250kph. We were out late,  well late for us, back to Ghent around 8.30 pm and believe me there aren't a lot of restaurants open at  that hour on a Monday night or on a Monday in...
