A number of us decided that Day 2 in Dusseldorf would be best spent touring the city. Luckily we had a guide book which directed us around the main areas and down some rather bizarre streets. The Rhine was flowing very fast, and barges moved very slowly against the tide. Lots of trees were trunk high with water.

Luckily the centre area was very manageable by foot. Interestingly trams are free to and from the Boat show , to ticket holders. But having said that there didn’t appear to be any ticket barriers/collectors anyway. The two way escalator had us thinking though.
