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.
We will now observe a moment of silence for our missing comrades... (At least you were spared the free beer which tasted like fermented grapefruit juice! Although I think Homer fancied it somewhat...)

Well, I had a KS amber lager in the frig so I drank that while you were drinking your grapefruit beer!
