I arrived less than an hour later, and walked around until I could check in to my hostel, Die Wohngemeinschaft. With not a lot of time, I didn't want to head too far, so I found the TK Maxx which was close by and checked it out. Not quite as awesome as the ones at home, but better than nothing. Unfortunately there are none very close to me. When I finally checked into the hostel, I was very impressed. The facilities were amazing: clean and new showers, clean bathrooms, and amazingly decorated rooms. My room was decorated with a rock n' roll theme, and each bed was double size with a curtain, shelf, outlet, and light. Each person also got a nice sized locker for their belongings for the night.

Shortly after checking in, I was on the road again to go meet the lady in charge of adoption for the galgos (spanish greyhound) through Scooby Medina in Germany. She was about 45 minutes away and the visit went well and I was approved for the adoption. The town she lived in looked very different from ours which perhaps is just because it is more north, but I definitely found it interesting. More modern and it almost somewhat resembled an urban American town.
Back to Cologne I went, and I was quite exhausted by the time I got back. I head out for a quick bite, and randomly met a young girl from the states also looking for somewhere to eat, so we ended up grabbing dinner together. After that I went to bed because I had more driving ahead of me tomorrow and not to mention, some site seeing to do before I left Cologne.
