Trip report: Cologne
May. 26th, 2012 10:39 amJust got back from Cologne.

Just behind the heron there is a hotel where I was staying for one night.
I was surprised that in S-Bahn in Cologne there are special areas for 1st class passengers. "Если в обществе нет цветовой дифференциации штанов..." So St.Petersburg officials who once planed to have a special VIP area in the metro trains were in fact not as silly as I thought, they must have seen this example.
Few more pics under cut.

All pics are in picasa album
I have noticed that in Germany it is still a common practice to name companies, including IT after founders name. It was popular elsewhere 100 years ago (Ford, Procter&Gamble, Suzuki, Toyota, Mitsubishi:), but I think not any more.
