9/15 - Amsterdam to Dusseldorf

Today it's off to Dusseldorf, Germany via the ICE bullet train from Amsterdam. The morning was sunny with partly cloudy skies in contrast to yesterday when it was nothing but rain. Left Amsterdam at 10:35 am and arrived in Dusseldorf, Germany at 12:45 pm. Staying at the CVJM downtown or as we refer to it in the states, YMCA. Very nice room at an affordable price. Should mention that the hotel is right next door to a Strip Club...  After settling in, went for a stroll to Konigsallee (Kings Alley) for some pricey window shopping...Armani, Gucci, H&M, Kauf Haus and some shopping at SATURN. Next was a walk to the Alta Stadt, Old City. After an exhausting couple of hours of walking, it was time for dinner. Found a restaurant called "Schweine Janes" and ordered from the lunch menu. Henri had the three meats plate (Pork sausage, roasted pork and grilled pork fillet) with mashed potatoes and saurkraut including a PILS bier. A BIG MEAL at an affordable price, 6,90 Euro. Then back to the hotel and had an almond pastry nightcap, yummy.
