Travelogue of Central and Western Europe (12) - Dortmund, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany (I)

Today, August 2, the kids are going to Dortmund for the COLOUR RUN. My daughter asked me if I wanted to go with them or stay home. Since the kids are going to such a lively event, I might as well go and join in the fun. It's a great way to experience a healthy and enjoyable activity in Germany.
I woke up at 6:30 a.m., went to the kitchen and fried four eggs, bread, milk, eggs and ham for breakfast.
After breakfast, I took the train to Dortmund with the kids. This time, I was my daughter's "pocket man" again.

To get to Dortmund you need to go to Düsseldorf first and then change trains to get there. We took the bus to Düsseldorf train station first.

Düsseldorf and Duisburg train stations are similar in structure, with multiple platforms on both sides of the aisle.

Buy sandwiches for the babies. A simple meal in Germany is all you can eat sandwiches.

"The Color Run" (The Color Run), a sport that originated in the United States in 2011, is known as "the happiest 5K race on earth", where participants wear white T-shirts and pass through different colored stations during the run, and are thrown colored powder from head to toe. This event has spread from the United States to the world, and The Color Run ((Color Run)) has attracted the most youthful crowd with its fun and exciting format. Countless young people join the Color Run because they love health, happiness and being themselves. What Color Runners share together is not just the joy of running, but the opportunity to experience this crazy and happy moment with friends and family that The Color Run provides! Isn't that why I'm here to share the joy of running?

These children came too early and sat in twos and threes waiting patiently. Each participant was given a white T-shirt and hairband, so the early arrivals changed into their costumes and sat on the field waiting for the start of the event. I took advantage of this time to capture these children participating in the event.
