À propos

LOCATION: On the streets of Cologne😉 WE'LL BE NEAR FRIESENPLATZ metro stop, OPPOSITE the main entrance of the "Lindner Hotel City Plaza", just in front of the (CLOSED!) way out of the "CONTIPARK" parking garage there ( https://maps.app.goo.gl/6VHVonofq2n53KLY7 ), just 50 meters down Magnusstr. from Friesenplatz ( https://goo.gl/maps/RRhVfzmV3X8Y13WC9 ). HOWEVER since at some point you can't cross the streets here anymore (not allowed to enter the way of the parade - and far too many spectators to get thru first anyways...) AND MAYBE because of a construction site at the corner of Hohenzollernring and Magnusstraße you MIGHT have to walk a bit of a detour to get to us "from behind": https://maps.app.goo.gl/tkEHVXp9eDuFfTBaA - OR EVEN: https://maps.app.goo.gl/Gb9CYRJfBogLUgCQA OR https://maps.app.goo.gl/S1vd6864HcSgC8S1A I'LL UPDATE HERE ON MONDAY IN THE SUPER UNLIKELY CASE WE HAVE TO CHANGE LOCATION!   In the morning and possibly throughout the day from "our place" I'll upload pics to our Google Photos Album: https://photos.app.goo.gl/firvfD9FhBTWyd95A - so you cn check WHAT COSTUME I (and perhaps also some others of us) WILL BE WEARING to hopefully find us more easily!    ✖      We and about 1.5 million people will be watching the big parade. 3 hours to see it all passing: 8,5km long, around 12,500 participants, 60 bands, almost more than 3,500 helpers. Plus 78 decorated floats, 19 parody wagons (with large paper mâché figures commenting on current events) and about 70 baggage trucks on which they store all the sweets to be thrown during the parade: 300 tons of sweets, 700,000 bars of chocolate, 220,000 boxes of pralines, 300,000 bunches of flowers, thousands of soft toys and other gift articles!
