Sunday was a busy day! It was family fix up the electrical outlets in my house day and they did a great job. I actually have light switches that work at last! The Home Depot run also netted more lava rock for the front area and a new toilet seat cover downstairs. 5 hours later after a home extravaganza we all went to Karl Stauss for lunch. (Oatmeal Stout)
Dusseldorf - continued
The sun slowly gave way to clouds then rain. This is not a city for walking in the rain. Before it was time to shelter and stay dry, I did one last walk around the area. The business district and surrounding areas are clean and little graffiti or murals. Found this flamingo? near the old city. While the leaves probably congest the waterways, they do look cool floating on the water. Ornate door entrance. Soon after this was taken, the clouds and mist lowered and the top of tower stayed obscured for the rest of my stay. I decided to pass on paying to go to the top when there was no visibility. Back in my hotel room I saw this rainbow emerge right before the rain started pelting down.
Yes, it was a productive day. However, today I have muscles I didn't know exist hurting. They must be the "replacing outlet and switches" muscles. Now I am inspired to replace my switches soon.
