Draconfells

DraconFells or Dragon's Rock is on a high hill overlooking the Rhine just outside Bonn. There are ruins of an old castle and if my memory is right, a mythic German hero supposedly killed a dragon up here. It was a big attraction even back in the early 19th century, the poet Lord Byron lived in a cottage on the hill, or so it's said.
Now thousands of people visit it on weekends, I'm not sure why it's so popular, although the view from the top is spectacular. Perhaps the legend is a big one in German culture.










Looking towards Bonn in the near distance and then Cologne is farther on, it can't be seen in this photo, but it can be seen on a clear day from the hilltop
There are various kitschy tourist attractions on the walk up the hill including these old early 60s (i think) era fun machines. One of them had photos of women in short dresses and bathing suits that you view through binoculars.. shocking!! .. and this one had something to do with your loving abilities, Cheryl, from work, came out relatively hot.... I however was rated as Stumperhaft.. or clumsy.
