the first days in Germany(1): Frankfurt to Cologne

Before I left China, I was told that I can take ICE from Frankfurt to Cologne, it is very fast, 300KM/hour, and I can make phone call at the train to notify Stefanie when and where I will arrive, the train started to run a few seconds right after I jumped on it, COOL, it runs really fast, but the assistant told me that the phone was broken, oops, it seems I will be wondering at Cologne station for a while, wihle the man sitting against me is so nice that he dial Stefanie's phone for me, MANY times, because when the train was running through the tunnel, there was no signal, but finally, I got the chance to shout out "hello, Stefanie, I am on the ICE train already...." There is always a way out, isn't it?

Here we are, the Cologne station:


The mobile-gentleman said "hey, turn around and take a look", WOW, WOW, WOW, the Cologne Cathedral is right HERE:
