Carnival Parade in Cologne

The biggest carnival parade is on Rose Monday in the center of Cologne with more than 60 groups and it goes on for more that four hours. Mia had seen parts of it two years ago wand she wanted to see it again.
With about a million people watching we took of course the train

Found a good spot with a view of the Dom

An unusual  police car drove ahead of the parade

In between it started to snow for some time

Later the sun came out again

We made it back to Heidelberg in the late evening and had to carry four bags of candy from the three parades
