Luggage was gathered and the Greenville band students and chaperones were packed into three buses. The 12 hour journey to Koln Germany had begun. On the route to Koln, they stopped at Arnheim, an outdoor museum, where they saw the recreated old German houses, windmills, and animals. When they finally arrived at Koln, the students got their first taste of German food and hospitality. The next day they visited the famous Koln Cathedral, and had a brief amount of time to see the city before their hectic schedule moved them on. Soon they were passengers aboard a Rhine river boat, viewing the endless vineyards and spectacular castles that bordered the Rhine. After the cruise, they travelled to Offenbach for their first concert. That night, they attended a dance given by a group of German students. They were both surprised and amused at the differences between American and German dancing. The next day was a tour of the beautiful Florian Abbey, and then on to Vienna. The youth hostels that they stayed in in Vienna did not quite live up to the previous hotels, but most of the students were able to make the best of it, and decorated their rooms with everything from pop bottles to pictures of foreign movie stars.
